moderate IVFTM (moderate in vitro fertilization) background and overview

Moderate (aka mini) IVF is our gentle ovarian stimulation alternative to conventional IVF. The goal of moderate (aka mini) IVF is to use a minimal amount of fertility medication to promote the development of a smaller quantity of eggs. This approach is sometimes considered at the extremes of reproductive age (Less then 30 or older than 43 years old). It is also considered for patients with sensitivities to stimulation medications. In vitro maturation can sometimes be added to maximize outcome potential (IVF/M).

Moderate IVF focuses on quality, not quantity. Stimulation of the ovary is approached with a combination of oral (Clomid or letrozole) and low-dose injectable fertility medication (Gonal-F or Menopur). The goal of Moderate IVF is the production of 3-5 eggs (compared to the 8-10 or more commonly produced with IVF).

This approach is most often considered at the extremes of reproductive age (Less then 30 or older than 43 years old). It is also considered for patients with sensitivities to stimulation medications, those who do not respond well to conventional stimulation or those who are at risk for serious complications such as OHSS. In vitro maturation can sometimes be added to maximize outcome potential (IVF/M).
