As IRENBE IVF Center, we believe that before deciding on IVF treatment, it is very important to understand the process correctly, receive information about options that may be suitable for you, and discuss your questions with our expert team. For this reason, preliminary consultations are offered every Thursday at IRENBE.
During this consultation, general information is provided about the IVF treatment process, applicable methods, preliminary evaluation stages, tests that may be needed, and the next steps. Our aim is to help couples better understand the process before starting treatment and to guide them for the initial evaluation.
In order for the consultation to be more productive, it is recommended that you bring any previous test and examination results belonging to you and your spouse, if available. Hormone tests, AMH results, ultrasound evaluations, uterine film (HSG), previous operation or treatment reports belonging to the woman; spermiogram / semen analysis results, hormone tests, and previous urology evaluations, if available, belonging to the man may be useful during the preliminary consultation.
If you have previously undergone an evaluation or treatment process at another center, the reports and results related to that process may also be guiding during the preliminary consultation. Even if you do not have any tests with you, the consultation can still be held; the evaluations deemed necessary will be explained to you in detail by our expert team.
After the consultation, you can also receive more detailed information about the process, application details, pricing, estimated costs, and payment options related to the treatment options that may be recommended for you. In this way, you can evaluate your process more clearly and confidently in terms of both medical and planning aspects.
We invite you to our preliminary consultations held every Thursday in order to receive reliable information before starting treatment and to evaluate your process with an expert team.

İzmir’s First Private IVF Center A Pioneering and Reliable Approach in IVF
Before starting treatment, the couple’s medical history, previous tests, and any past treatment processes are evaluated in detail. In women, ovarian reserve, hormone levels, and the structure of the uterus and ovaries are examined; in men, findings related to reproductive health, especially sperm analysis, are reviewed. After any additional tests deemed necessary are planned, all results are evaluated together, and the most suitable personalized treatment process is created for the couple.
Before IVF treatment, the reproductive health of the couple is evaluated together. In women, hormone tests, AMH, ultrasound evaluation, and, when necessary, tests such as a uterine film are among the examinations; in men, sperm analysis is one of the basic evaluations. In addition, blood tests and infection screenings may also be planned for treatment safety.
At İRENBE IVF Unit, certain documents and procedures must be completed before treatment so that the treatment process can proceed safely and completely. In this context, a document showing marital status, photocopies of the patient’s and spouse’s identity documents, recent passport-style photographs, test results requested by the physician, and necessary consent forms should be prepared. It is important that all official and administrative processes are completed before egg retrieval and embryo transfer.
The IVF treatment protocol is planned individually, taking into account age, ovarian reserve, body mass index, lifestyle habits, and previous treatment history. Treatment usually begins in the first days of menstrual bleeding with ovary-stimulating medications. Medication use and the points to be considered during the process are explained in detail by our nurses.
After the treatment protocol is determined, a follow-up process lasting approximately 10–12 days begins. During this period, ultrasonography is performed at certain intervals, and hormone analyses are evaluated when necessary. According to the ovaries’ response to treatment, medication doses and the treatment plan are adjusted individually by the physician. The aim is to safely monitor the development of eggs in an appropriate number and quality.
In some patients, despite an appropriate treatment protocol, the ovaries may not give the expected response. In this case, the process is re-evaluated by the physician; if necessary, medication doses, the treatment protocol, or the path to be followed are replanned individually.
When the eggs reach the desired maturity, a trigger injection is administered, and the egg retrieval procedure is performed approximately 34–36 hours later. The procedure is carried out vaginally under ultrasound guidance and with anesthesia support. The collected follicular fluids are evaluated in the embryology laboratory, and the eggs are separated.
The collected eggs are evaluated under special conditions in the embryology laboratory. Depending on the patient’s condition, conventional IVF or microinjection (ICSI) is applied to mature eggs. Fertilization status is usually checked the following day. Fertilized embryos are monitored in special culture media that mimic the uterine environment and in advanced incubator systems. Embryo development is evaluated on specific days, and the most appropriate transfer time is planned.
Embryo transfer is the process of placing embryos, whose development has been monitored during the laboratory stage, into the uterus at the appropriate time. Depending on the patient’s condition, the transfer may be planned as a fresh embryo transfer or a frozen embryo transfer. In suitable patients, fresh embryo transfer is usually performed on the 3rd day after egg retrieval, or in some cases on the 5th day at the blastocyst stage. The transfer procedure is mostly painless, generally does not require anesthesia, and is performed under ultrasound guidance with the help of a special catheter.
