Success in Parenthood: The In Vitro Maturation Breakthrough in Infertility
Abstract
This case report revolves around a 37-year-old woman and her 39-year-old husband, who have been married for seven years and were seeking treatment for infertility. The husband has been diagnosed with asthenozoospermia for the past six years and has been on continued medication, and the woman has been diagnosed with polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS). To improve fertility outcomes, this case report enlightens the treatment and medical strategy for people with PCOS. Treatment included low-dose ovarian stimulation for the removal of immature eggs, and then in vitro maturation (IVM) of those oocytes was done. Later, intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) was performed to form the blast. The formed blasts were later cryopreserved till embryo transfer. This case report highlights the importance of preventing the risk of ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS) in patients with PCOS.
How strong is the evidence?
Evidence Hub reads this as a case report, done in people. Its evidence level is 5 of 5 (Very low · case / narrative / animal / in vitro / in silico). Case reports, narrative reviews, and animal, cell or computer-model studies give the weakest evidence for human health.
