Minimum Stimulation IVF

What Is A Minimum Stimulation Cycle?

Minimal Stimulation IVF involves the same approach and procedures as traditional IVF, but with fewer drugs and injections.  For those women who are considered good candidates, minimal stimulation IVF is a more affordable treatment option for infertility.

What are other benefits of using this method?

Along with being the more affordable infertility treatment option, there are other reasons couples may decide a minimum stimulation cycle is the way to go.  In a normal Full IVF cycle, as many as 10-12 eggs are produced and only a few are implanted .  The patient must then decide whether to freeze the remaining eggs for a future cycle, or discard them.  For many this causes an ethical or religious conflict; they don’t want to discard their healthy eggs, but at the same time they may not know if or when they want to have more children.  Some patients also struggle with the financial obligation of paying for long-term cryogenic storage of these extra eggs, not knowing if or when they may use them.  However, in a minimum stimulation cycle there are usually only enough eggs produced for a single IVF cycle, virtually eliminating the concerns about what to do with extra eggs.  For a patient considering different methods, our physicians consider minimum stimulation IVF as a great option.
