In Vitro Fertilization (IVF) at IVF Florida
In vitro fertilization (IVF) is one of the most effective and widely used fertility treatments available today. IVF Florida’s experienced reproductive endocrinologists use advanced IVF techniques to support individuals and couples in building their families with personalized, compassionate care.
What is IVF?
IVF is an assisted reproductive technology (ART) that involves fertilizing an egg with sperm in a laboratory and then transferring the resulting embryo to the uterus. This process gives many patients a greater chance of conception, especially when other treatments have not been successful.
IVF may use your own eggs and sperm or involve donor eggs, donor sperm, or donor embryos, depending on your medical history and goals.
When is IVF recommended?
IVF may be recommended for individuals and couples facing a range of fertility challenges, including:

What does the IVF process involve?
Curious about the in vitro fertilization process timeline? IVF typically involves several steps over the course of a few weeks. At IVF Florida, each stage is carefully managed by your dedicated care team to support the best possible outcome.
The IVF process includes:
STEP 1
Ovarian stimulation
Daily hormone injections are used to stimulate the ovaries to produce multiple eggs.
STEP 2
Monitoring
Ultrasounds and bloodwork track your response to medications and determine the optimal time for egg retrieval.
STEP 3
Egg retrieval
A minimally invasive procedure is performed under gentle anesthesia to collect mature eggs from the ovaries.
STEP 4
Fertilization
Eggs are combined with sperm in the lab to create embryos. This is one of the most critical vitro fertilization procedures.
STEP 5
Embryo culture
Embryos are monitored for five to seven days post fertilization, and once fully grown, they are frozen through a process called vitrification.
STEP 6
Embryo transfer
Since 2018, IVF Florida has been a “freeze-all” practice, and we do not perform fresh embryo transfers. A frozen embryo transfer can be performed during the cycle after IVF or at any time in the future. We follow the embryo transfer guidelines recommended by the American Society of Reproductive Medicine.
STEP 7
Pregnancy test
A blood test is performed about 10 days after transfer to confirm pregnancy.
