Procedures done in the hospital

IUI

Intra-uterine insemination (IUI) is a process in which the washed sperms are placed directly into the uterus with the help of a thin catheter. IUI is an OPD (outpatient department) procedure in which neither anesthesia nor hospitalization is required. Ovulation is confirmed by ultrasound and once it is done, the partner is asked to collect the semen in a sterile container. It takes about 45 minutes to an hour to process the semen sample. A thin tube called IUI catheter is introduced in the uterus & the processed semen sample is slowly released in the uterus. Luteal phase support is given and pregnancy is confirmed fifteen days later by a simple blood test. This is well performed in our fertility clinic.

IVF / ICSI (Intra Cytoplasmic Sperm Injection)

IVF stands for in vitro fertilization. It refers to the process in which a woman’s eggs are collected and later fertilized outside her womb in the laboratory. We are presently the best IVF center in Mumbai for services such as infertility, sperm donation and others. ICSI (Intra Cytoplasmic Sperm Injection) has proved to be very useful in couples who have failed to achieve fertilization or had very poor fertilization following standard IVF treatment & in couples where the male partner has abnormal sperm parameters (e.g. low count, poor motility, high percentage of abnormal sperms).

In our fertility clinic the IVF / ICSI ((Intra Cytoplasmic Sperm Injection) procedures do not require overnight hospitalization.

Donor Egg Program

Our infertility doctors of our IVF clinic in Mumbai have started the Donor Egg Program. In this program another woman will be the egg donor. The donor is chosen after a strict medical evaluation and after relevant investigation. After getting normal results, the donor will undergo IVF stimulation under our top infertility experts in Mumbai and later followed by ovum Pick up. The donor’s eggs are fertilized with the recipient’s husband’s sperms. The resultant embryos are then transferred in the adequately prepared uterus of the recipient.

Surrogacy

In women where have conditions of her uterus is malformed or damaged and is incapable of carrying a pregnancy due repeated miscarriages or women suffering from medical problems whom a pregnancy would be life threatening or women who have had a surgical removal of the uterus due to cancer, ruptured womb or who are born without a uterus, these are some of the conditions where surrogacy is indicated in these women.
The term Surrogacy is used when a woman carries a pregnancy and gives birth to a baby for another woman. Surrogate carries the pregnancy and is genetically not related to the child. Our IVF clinic helps the patient through this entire journey in consultation with the best IVF doctors.

Fertility Enhance Surgery

Fertility enhancing surgeries like Laparoscopy & Hysteroscopy when done indicated improve the pregnancy rate, sometimes without intervention

At the best IVF center in Mumbai, we perform the following latest techniques to improve the pregnancy rate.

Blastocyst Transfer

A blastocyst is the final stage of the embryo’s development before it hatches out of the shell (zona pellucida) and implants in the uterine wall. Our fertility clinic in Powai transfers the embryo on day 5, at the blastocyst stage, yields higher pregnancy rate.

Laser Assisted Hatching

Assisted hatching is performed in the laboratory just prior to embryo transfer under supervision of our infertility doctors. Assisted hatching is performed in the laboratory just prior to embryo transfer. It is a simple and precautionary procedure where a small hole is made in the outside shell (the zona) of each embryo to be transferred.

Subendometrial Blood Flow

Low implantation rates in stimulated IVF cycles may be related to suboptimal endometrial perfusion. This can be easily diagnosed by a non-invasive test like sonography with Doppler ultrasound performed at out fertility clinic in Powai.
This poor blood flow can be then be improved by alteration in medications and the pregnancy rate can be improved. This is done by direct supervision of infertility doctors who are experts.

PICSI ( Physiological ICSI)

PICSI sperm selection device is now available for the selection of mature sperm for ICSI (Intra Cytoplasmic Sperm Injection). These selected sperms will have minimal DNA fragmentation, normal shape and low frequency of chromosomal aneuploidies improving pregnancy rate and also reducing the rate of abortions. All this is identified with great skill in the fertility clinic and also under supervision of the best team of fertility doctors.

Growth Hormone

Growth Hormone therapy is one of the adjuvant treatment used in ovarian stimulation and ART. Growth Hormone supplements have shown to improve pregnancy rates in poor responders. This is done in IVF hospitals but arguably by the best IVF doctors in our fertility clinic.

GCSF (Granulocyte Colony Stimulating Factor)

G-CSF is a cytokine/growth factor crucial for implantation and it is also a remedy for implantation failure, recurrent abortions, and thin endometrium which fails to respond with standard therapy. This is a process that has been well practiced by our best IVF clinic.

Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP)

Endometrium is one of the main factors in implantation and pregnancy. Pregnancy rate is increased with growing endometrial thickness
Intrauterine infusion of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is a new approach that has been suggested for the treatment of thin endometrium by the best hospitals for infertility practise.

Preimplantation Genetic Screening (PGS)

For testing whether embryos (obtained through IVF/ICSI) have abnormal chromosomes number is also offered as a service in our fertility centre.

Preimplantation Genetic Diagnosis (PGD)

It is the testing of pre-implantation stage embryos or oocytes for genetic defects. It has been developed for couples whose potential offspring are at risk of severe Mendelian disorders, structural chromosome abnormalities or mitochondrial disorders. This is a service offered by arguably the best hospital for infertility.

Achievement Of Our  IVF Treatment In Mumbai

A 42 year old patient with thin endometrium (less than 7 mm)  and poor ovarian reserve who already had one failed cycle of  IVF came to us for further treatment .
The treatment given were:
Medicines to improve the egg quality were given for 12 weeks before the IVF procedure.
IVF was done and embryos were frozen.
Hysteroscopic Metro plasty was done to correct the endometrial cavity .In the next cycle estradiol valerate tablets were started for embryo transfer. Inspite  of successive increase in the dose of estradiol valerate, when her lining did not grow beyond 7.5  mm Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) was inserted  in the uterine cavity.
The embryo transfer was done 3 days after the PRP and patient had a healthy pregnancy and delivery.

Surrogacy

Why surrogacy at Dr L H Hiranandani Hospital?

At Dr L H Hiranandani Hospital, we have

  • High volume of patients – Arguably we deliver the largest number of surrogates for a single hospital in Mumbai
  • Facilitation of the birth certificate – The process of obtaining birth certificate is systematically placed so that the application and processing is done in the shortest possible time.
  • NABH accredited & ISO certified Hospital - All rules and protocols are in place and they are strictly followed according to standard operating procedures. This gives standardization to all the procedures we do and helps in maintaining strict quality control.

Facilities available for surrogacy

All facilities under one roof – Investigations, ICSI cycle etc. and all the procedures for the surrogate antenatal check ups as well as delivery, neonatal care post delivery pediatric care and advice are conducted in the Hospital.

  • The NICU is well equipped to handle very small, preterm babies and all the complications associated with prematurity
  • A fully equipped hi tech OT setup comparable to international standards available day and night to handle emergencies.
  • 24 hrs radiology department/USG facilities
  • 24 hrs NABH accredited blood bank and casualty services
  • 24 hours NABL accredited pathology laboratory
  • Webcam facility available - We are available to talk to you at predetermined date and time so that we can have a direct discussion as if you are doing a consultation with us. You can clarify all your doubts personally rather than on mail.
  • High success rate with practically nil preterm deliveries - This is because of the meticulous care in choosing the surrogate as well as care taken during pregnancy. She is treated as a high risk pregnancy with two obstetricians taking care of her.
  • Novel ways like cervical length monitoring by transvaginal sonography & antibiotic and probiotic treatment during pregnancy to prevent preterm labor.  These new ways of monitoring have practically eradicated preterm delivery, the most dreaded complication of pregnancy. We have presented papers on these novel methods in various Conferences and they have received due recognition.
  • Optimization of pregnancy outcome - At our centre, we believe that the success rate of IVF/ICSI depends on pre IVF evaluation. E.g. If there is poor ovarian reserve, then we give certain medications before IVF to improve the ovarian reserve and then attempt IVF. This obviously gives a high success rate. Similarly all male and female factors are evaluated before going for the actual cycle.
    Thus high IVF success rates with high surrogacy rates gives us the best results
  • Extended embryo culture / Blastocyst transfer - The quality of any laboratory is assessed by the number of blastocyst transfers. Our IVF laboratory is fully equipped with all the modern, state of art technology and expertise which gives us a high fertilization rate and we do blastocyst transfer in at least 70% of the patients.
  • Blood flow monitoring - It is a novel concept in the science of infertility. It is like seed and soil. When you sow the seed under the soil and give water, that water has to percolate the soil and reach the seed; otherwise the seed will not develop into a plant. Similarly if the blood flow does not reach the inner lining of the uterus, the embryo will not get nutrition and will not implant or if it implants may lead to missed abortion. Endometrial perfusion presents accurate noninvasive assay of uterine receptivity that may be used to predict implantation success rate. We select only those surrogates who have good blood flow thus increasing the success rates.
