The PCOS Fertility Paradox
Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) is a common hormonal condition that interferes with ovulation. Interestingly, women with PCOS typically have a large egg reserve, which is a major advantage for IVF. However, because their ovaries are highly sensitive, standard hormone dosages can lead to Ovarian Hyperstimulation Syndrome (OHSS), a serious medical complication. This is why customized protocols are critical.
Customizing Stimulation for PCOS Patients
At Pravi IVF in Lajpat Nagar, Delhi, we prioritize patient safety alongside success rates. For women with PCOS, we implement:
- Antagonist Protocols: Using customized medication regimens that significantly reduce the risk of OHSS.
- Mild Stimulation: Carefully adjusting stimulation dosages to grow quality eggs without over-stimulating the ovaries.
- Segmented Cycles (Freeze-All): Retrieving the eggs, fertilizing them, and freezing all embryos. We perform the transfer in a subsequent natural cycle when hormone levels are calm, which increases implantation rates.
High Success Rates with Expert Care
With correct clinical management, women with PCOS have some of the highest IVF pregnancy success rates. Our senior specialists spend time studying your unique hormonal baseline to build a safe, personalized stimulation plan.
