Consultations and treatments

Assisted Reproduction Treatments (ART)

At our clinic, our fertility specialists are here to help you find the best path to pregnancy.

We assess which technique is most suitable for you by considering different factors, such as difficulty conceiving or your age. We also take into account the reproductive potential of both you and your partner, to ensure we offer you the best personalized care possible.

Low complexity treatments

Fertility treatments using low-complexity techniques are defined as those that do not pose any risk or great discomfort to patients.

High complexity treatments

High-complexity techniques offer higher success rates than low-complexity techniques. They are performed with high-tech instruments and by specialized personnel. They are usually carried out in the embryology laboratory and in the procedure room, which must meet the conditions of maximum sterility.

Laboratory

Gamete Laboratory

At our gamete laboratory, we are passionately dedicated to helping each patient achieve their dream of starting a family. We deeply value ethics and responsibility at every step of the process, ensuring that every technique and decision is guided by the personalized care our patients deserve.

We strive to be leaders in the field of assisted reproduction, combining scientific innovation with a warm and compassionate approach to all those who trust us. In close collaboration and in an environment of mutual support, we work to overcome challenges and offer life-changing solutions, always with a commitment to continually improve and adapt to provide the best care possible.

Frequently Asked Questions

It is advisable to go to a fertility medical consultation if, after 1 year of having unprotected sex, you have not managed to get pregnant, as long as you are under 35 years old. After 35 years of age, the recommended time to try to get pregnant before going to an appointment is 6 months.

The main difference between artificial insemination and in vitro fertilization is the process of fertilization of the egg. In insemination, fertilization occurs inside the woman’s body, while in vitro fertilization occurs in a laboratory.

Yes, there are currently 2 options to achieve pregnancy after a tubal ligation. The first is recanalization of the salpinges, which is performed by surgery and the purpose is to rejoin the salpinges to allow the passage of the egg and sperm, and thus achieve pregnancy; and the second is through in vitro fertilization procedures. Not all cases are candidates for tubal recanalization procedures, so currently, most of these cases decide to go on to in vitro fertilization treatments. However, each case must be individualized to choose the appropriate treatment.

Yes, it is currently possible to choose the sex of the baby as long as it is through in vitro fertilization and a genetic study.

The chances of getting pregnant naturally and spontaneously, that is, without medical treatment, will decrease as you get older. After the age of 35, the chances of getting pregnant decrease significantly, and after the age of 40, the chances of getting pregnant naturally are very low. However, in order to say that a woman can no longer get pregnant, it would be necessary for the woman to reach menopause.

Yes, although a vasectomy prevents sperm from leaving the body through ejaculation, a vasectomy does not prevent new sperm from forming in the testicles. Therefore, in these cases, a testicular biopsy is performed, from which healthy sperm are obtained, which can be used in in vitro fertilization treatments to achieve pregnancy.

A study called direct spermatobioscopy or seminogram must be performed, which is a study in which the ejaculate is observed under a microscope and the sperm are seen, assessing their shape, mobility, number, among other things, and in this way we can determine whether it is feasible to achieve a pregnancy or not, given the characteristics of the semen. It is very important that this study is performed by highly trained personnel, who are generally only found in fertility or assisted reproduction clinics. Therefore, it is not advisable to do this study in a common clinical laboratory, as it can give us inaccurate results.

In general, in a young, healthy couple, the possibility of achieving pregnancy in the first month is 12%, this percentage is cumulative each subsequent month, so after a year, the possibility of having become pregnant in that time is 75%.

Yes, just as there is a general possibility of having a twin pregnancy, there is also the possibility of a twin pregnancy occurring in fertility treatments. In general, the probability of this occurring is slightly higher than naturally, and it is more frequent in artificial insemination treatments than in in vitro fertilization.

It will depend on the cause(s) that we find in the couple’s study. Generally, once a treatment has begun (that is, without taking into account the time it takes to carry out studies or correct some causes found during them), pregnancy is usually achieved in 1 to 4 months, considering that the treatment was carried out each month. In the case of artificial insemination, it is recommended to make up to 4 attempts before moving on to in vitro fertilization. In cases of in vitro fertilization, it is recommended to make 3 attempts before opting for other alternatives.

It will depend on the proposed treatment and the response of each patient. In the vast majority of cases, hormonal medications are administered in pill form or by injection; some patients may experience reactions, such as headaches or emotional sensitivity. In a few cases, your body may react to ovarian hyperstimulation, which consists of inflammation of both ovaries for a few days.

It is recommended that you see a fertility specialist, preferably before the age of 35, so that they can perform a complete evaluation of your health status, including an evaluation of your ovarian reserve, so that you can learn about the proposal for preserving your eggs for future use.

Don’t give up. There is a percentage of probability of pregnancy for each cycle, depending on your diagnosis and the proposed treatment. Each attempt you make will provide information to your treating physician to determine if there is a need to make changes to a new treatment. The road may be difficult but the important thing is patience and perseverance.

Yes, there are currently Intrauterine Insemination and In Vitro Fertilization treatments with donor sperm. Your medical history is taken, some tests are performed to determine which treatment you are suitable for; a sample is chosen from a sperm bank of anonymous donors, and once the treatment has started, the sperm sample is thawed and prepared for the procedure that has been chosen.

The decision must be made as a couple who wishes to carry the pregnancy and consider who is in better health and with a better ovarian reserve; if both have the above, there is a treatment called the ROPA method. Where one of the two has her eggs extracted, fertilized with donor sperm and the embryo is deposited in the couple’s uterus.

It is very important to perform an endovaginal ultrasound on day 2 or 3 of your menstrual cycle to count the follicles in each ovary. There is also a more specific blood test, which can be performed on any day of the cycle and is called Anti-Mullerian Hormone.

It includes a complete assessment of both, such as a physical examination consisting of a pap smear (if there has not been one previously done within a year), an endovaginal pelvic ultrasound to see the characteristics of the uterus as well as the ovaries. Recommended tests may be requested depending on the case, and a treatment proposal in case a diagnosis is made in the same consultation.

It also includes, if applicable, a Direct Spermatobioscopy study for men.

Artificial Insemination treatment costs from $12,500 Mexican Pesos o MX$12,500.

IVF treatment packages start at $89,500 and up. Mexican Pesos or MX$89,500.

In addition, you should consider medication for stimulation.

There is no set maximum time for egg freezing, however, ideally these eggs should be used before the age of 40, since after the age of 40 the maternal risk of complications such as gestational diabetes or preeclampsia increases.

Infectious studies are performed to verify that they are in good health. A semen sample is requested through ejaculation. If the man is able to do so, 2 to 3 samples are requested. If the man is unable to ejaculate, a testicular biopsy can be performed to extract the sperm and preserve it.

Infertility consultation

We understand that the road to parenthood can be bumpy. Infertility is simply defined as difficulty conceiving after a year of frequent attempts without using contraception. It affects approximately 15% of couples.

At our clinic, we approach infertility evaluation as a couple’s process. Together, we explore possible causes that could be affecting fertility, such as:

Anovulation (when a woman does not ovulate regularly)
Fallopian tube obstructions
Uterine anatomical problems
Factors that can influence male fertility, such as sperm quality.

During your initial visit, we take the time to learn your complete medical history. This includes exploring chronic conditions such as diabetes or hypertension, previous surgeries, lifestyle habits such as alcohol or tobacco use, and any other factors that may be affecting your fertility. This entire process is carried out with sensitivity and understanding, to ensure that each step is clear and reassuring.

Based on this initial evaluation and a physical examination, the necessary studies are determined to identify the cause of infertility. These may include hormonal analyses, pelvic ultrasounds, Pap smear and, in some cases, more specific studies such as hysterosalpingography in women or semen analysis in men. All these studies are carried out in a personalized manner, according to the individual needs of each couple.

Preconception counseling

The preconception consultation is designed for couples who wish to optimize their health before seeking pregnancy, ensuring the best conditions for future gestation.

It is especially recommended for couples with known risk factors, complicated reproductive histories, or chronic medical conditions. This service allows us to identify and treat any preexisting medical conditions, educate on healthy lifestyle habits, and make informed decisions from the beginning of pregnancy to minimize potential complications for both mother and baby.

Our approach during the preconception consultation includes:

Comprehensive evaluation of the current health of both partners.
Identification and management of chronic diseases.
Education on lifestyle modifications that can improve fertility and well-being during pregnancy.

Advance planning to address any identified risk factors.

At our clinic, we are committed to providing the support and guidance necessary for each couple to feel prepared and confident as they begin this exciting journey toward parenthood.

Ovulation induction and follicular monitoring

It is the stimulation of the ovary with medications (oral, injected or both) with the aim of promoting the growth of one, two or more follicles (depending on the type of treatment), in order to estimate the day of ovulation, indicate the days on which sexual intercourse should be had or when some other procedure such as intrauterine insemination or in vitro fertilization is desired, and thus increase the chances of pregnancy.

There are oral and injected medications for this purpose, and the treatment and dose used will depend on the cause of infertility, the age of the patient, the ovarian reserve and the procedure to be performed.

While taking these medications, it is very important to monitor follicle growth through ultrasound. This is called follicular monitoring. All with the aim of knowing the response, adjusting the dose of medication, scheduling the date of ovulation and sometimes cancelling the treatment if the response is excessive (with the aim of reducing the risk of multiple pregnancy) or when there is no response to the medication.

Scheduled intercourse

Timed intercourse consists of indicating more precisely the fertile days, that is, the day when ovulation is most likely to occur.

It can be indicated in a natural cycle (without medication) or a stimulated cycle (with medication). In both cases, follicular monitoring is necessary (3 to 4 transvaginal ultrasounds) and based on the number and measurements of the follicles, the fertile days for having sexual intercourse are indicated.

Artificial insemination

AI consists of the preparation of a semen sample that will then be deposited inside the patient’s uterus by means of a fine cannula. It is a simple procedure that does not require anesthesia.

Depending on the origin of the sample, two types are distinguished:

  • Artificial Insemination of Spouse (IAH): when the sample comes from the patient’s partner.
  • Artificial Insemination of Donor (IAD): when the sample comes from a sperm donor, which can be from a private or external bank.
In vitro fertilization

It is a procedure in which the woman’s eggs are extracted by puncturing the ovarian follicles. These eggs are fertilized in the laboratory with the sperm of the man or a donor. The resulting embryos are transferred to the mother’s uterus to achieve pregnancy.

The IVF process includes:

  1. Controlled ovarian stimulation: Between the first and third day of the menstrual period, hormonal medications are administered to stimulate the production of several eggs. For 10 to 12 days, constant monitoring and blood tests are performed until the last application of medications 36 hours before the capture.
  2. Follicular capture: A puncture is performed to extract the mature eggs, under light sedation or local anesthesia. On this day, a semen sample is also obtained, either from the spouse or from a sperm donor.
  3. In vitro fertilization (IVF): In the laboratory, eggs are fertilized with sperm and their development is monitored.
  4. Embryo culture: Embryos are observed for several days to assess their development to the blastocyst stage.
  5. Embryo transfer: The specialist introduces the embryo into the woman’s uterus, usually 3 to 5 days into development.

Performed in a controlled laboratory environment, this procedure offers an effective option for those seeking to conceive when other techniques have been unsuccessful.

Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection (ICSI)

It is a procedure where a selected sperm is carefully introduced into each egg. We use a specialized microscope that allows us to see the internal structure of the sperm up close, thus ensuring that we choose the most suitable one to promote successful fertilization and obtain better results.

This method is mainly recommended in severe cases of male fertility problems, such as low concentration, reduced mobility or abnormal sperm morphology. It is also useful when using sperm obtained by biopsy (from the testicle or epididymis) and in couples who have had previous attempts at IVF without success in fertilization.

During the process, we closely monitor the fertilization of the eggs and the development of the embryos, evaluating them periodically. The biologist and the treating physician determine the optimal time to transfer the embryos to the uterus, with the aim of improving the chances of pregnancy.

IVF with donor eggs

In Vitro fertilization with donated eggs is a complex Assisted Reproduction technique, its objective is to increase the chances of achieving a pregnancy in couples whose cause of infertility is women who no longer have the adequate amount of their own eggs or these are of very poor quality and no longer fertilize properly; this due to previous surgeries, cancer treatments, transmissible genetic causes or age over 40 years.

For this reason, altruistic women are required, who wish to donate their eggs to help these couples. There can be two types of donors, anonymous donors, where the information of the donor and recipient is kept absolutely confidential by the center where the treatment is carried out, and known donors, who unlike the previous condition, the donor and recipient know each other and it is they who establish their subsequent relationship.

In both cases, donors go through a process of exhaustive medical and psychological evaluations.

Once they are selected as suitable for donation, they begin a process of applying hormonal medications, with the aim of stimulating their ovaries to produce a greater number of eggs. The recipient undergoes an endometrial preparation to later receive the embryos.

The donor’s eggs are obtained in an procedure room under anesthesia, and they are fertilized in the laboratory with the semen of the recipient’s husband. Once the embryos are obtained, they are transferred to the uterus of the recipient woman.

After 14 days, the patient will take a pregnancy test to find out the result of the treatment.

Egg donation

Egg donation is a voluntary and altruistic act in which healthy eggs obtained from a donor are provided to another woman who wants to become a mother, because it is not possible for her to use her own eggs.

All donors go through a selection program that includes:

Personal interview and completion of a complete medical history.
Gynecological examination with pelvic ultrasound and pap smear.
Laboratory analysis to rule out infections and pathologies.

If you are interested in donating your eggs, these are some of the essential requirements:

  • Woman between 18-28 years old.
  • No history of hereditary diseases.
  • Be in good physical and mental health.
  • Weight no greater than 80 kg or BMI greater than 30.
  • Pass all medical tests.
  • Altruistic and anonymous donation.

Have a schedule available to attend check-ups and application of medication.

Preservation of fertility

Fertility preservation is a technique that consists of freezing eggs and/or sperm. In this way, the cells can be kept unchanged for an indefinite period of time until the desire to have offspring is achieved.

This is a procedure indicated for cancer patients, women who wish to delay the age of childbearing and/or women who suffer from endometriosis. In addition, men can also preserve their fertility to become fathers in the future.

  • Male fertility preservation
    This is the procedure by which a semen sample is stored at temperatures of -160°C for long periods of time to reduce the vital functions of the sperm and to be able to keep them in “latent life” conditions, maintaining their pregnancy capacity with respect to the seminal quality prior to freezing.
  • Female fertility preservation
    In the case of eggs, it is performed as part of a fertility preservation treatment. It consists of a treatment of ovarian hormonal stimulation with the subsequent obtaining of eggs by ovarian puncture. The recovered eggs will be vitrified and preserved until the patient wishes to use them.
Hysteroscopy

It is the direct visualization of the uterine cavity, through a thin lens small camera system that is introduced through the cervix, with the aim of identifying abnormalities or treating pathologies that affect it.

It is indicated in patients with abnormal uterine bleeding, polyps, fibroids, uterine malformations (septums), intrauterine adhesions (synechiae), and in patients who will undergo assisted reproduction techniques, to corroborate the integrity and absence of pathology of the uterine cavity.

Andrology

Andrology is the study and treatment of diseases and problems that are specific to men. It is responsible for diagnosing male fertility through various laboratory tests.

  • Direct spermatobioscopy or seminogram
  • Male fertility preservation
  • Sperm DNA fragmentation.

Chromatin dispersion test:

This technique is used to measure sperm DNA fragmentation since fragmented (damaged) sperm DNA is the only one that can be denatured under the conditions used in the study, generating single-stranded DNA (ssDNA). Only sperm with double-stranded DNA (not fragmented) can decondense, allowing the halos to disperse.

The semen sample is processed using agarose gels fixed on a slide which is treated with a denaturing acidic solution of hydrochloric acid, which produces single-stranded sperm DNA from the end of a broken DNA fragment. If the genetic information contained in the sperm is not fragmented, it will remain as double-stranded DNA even after the chemical process of the acidic solution.
