What is natural cycle IVF and how does it differ from traditional IVF in terms of medication usage, procedure steps and patient outcomes?
Natural cycle IVF involves collecting and fertilizing the one egg a woman naturally releases during her monthly cycle. Unlike traditional IVF, it avoids stimulant drugs, reducing side effects and costs but often leads to lower success rates.
Natural Cycle IVF uses no stimulating drugs, relying on the woman’s natural cycle to collect one egg. It contrasts traditional IVF, which uses medications to stimulate the production of multiple eggs, potentially leading to higher success rates but also more side effects and a more complex procedure.
