In cases of excessively poor ovarian response, I apply the embryo banking protocol in natural or mildly modified natural cycles until a sufficient number of embryos are cryopreserved, which may vary in every case, based on the woman’s age and history criteria. Therefore, when no response to drug stimulation is expected, the natural cycle is…

A useful tool for the embryonic banking procedure is the puncture of the follicles in the second phase (luteal phase) of the menstrual cycle. Our team's studies have noted that women with low ovarian reserve and high FSH levels, recruit follicles in the second phase of the cycle, which naturally in the body are unable…
1)Uterus & hysteroscopy
Although congenital abnormalities in the uterus do not normally cause infertility they sometimes cause problems during a potentially subsequent pregnancy. Therefore, the potential risks arising from them should be analysed in detail before starting any fertility treatment. Accordingly, if the uterus has fibroids which are in contact with the endometrial cavity and…
Microfertilisation or ICSI is the selection of a normal spermatozoa from the embryologists, based on its morphological characteristics and its smooth mobility, its aspiration with a micropipette and the injection of it straight into the egg.
Fertilisation with ICSI is applied in the following cases:
• Weak sperm
• History of endometriosis
• Advanced reproductive…
Since 2010, egg freezing has been launched in cases where there was no partner in younger ages and the patient wanted to preserve their fertility unchanged over time. Eggs are also cryopreserved by the rapid freezing method and thawed when the patient desires to fertilise them and create a family with the right partner or…
The goals of surgical treatment of endometriosis are
-Limiting the disease and thereby increasing fertility
-Relief of the pain associated with endometriosis
-Correction of the mechanical issues associated with the problem
-Removal of the endometriomas, i.e. the chocolate cysts, but with particular effort to avoid damaging the remaining and particularly valuable healthy ovarian tissue.
