Assisted Hatching

Assisted Hatching Treatment Center in Pune

Assisted hatching is an assisted reproductive technology that is sometimes used in conjunction with conventional IVF treatment. The theory behind assisted hatching is that it could help with embryo implantation. Usually, this procedure is more likely to be recommended when there has been repeated unexplained IVF failure or for patients with a poor prognosis. Assisted hatching, on the other hand, is one of the easiest ways to speed up the conceiving process which can be beneficial to infertile females. This will also assist you in starting a family.

How does Embryos Hatch?

To comprehend assisted hatching, one must first comprehend the natural hatching of an embryo. You begin with an oocyte or egg before you get an embryo. The oocyte is surrounded by a protein shell known as the zona pellucida. The zona pellucida plays several roles in embryo formation, and these roles shift as the embryo develops.

The zona pellucida fuses with sperm cells until the egg develops into an embryo. This fusion marks the beginning of the fertilization process. The zona pellucida hardens when a single sperm cell enters the shell and fertilizes the egg. This hardening inhibits further sperm cell entry into the now-fertilized zygote.

The hardened shell also prevents the embryo from implanting early in the fallopian tubes, resulting in an ectopic pregnancy. It also helps to bring the blastocyst cells together.

The zona pellucida spreads and starts to thin and deteriorate as the zygote progresses down the fallopian tube and grows into the blastocyst stage. The zona pellucida cracks open around day four of development, allowing the blastocyst/embryo to emerge, leaving behind the thin protein shell. This stage reflects the embryo hatching phase.

The blastocyst inserts itself into the endometrium within a few days of hatching. The blastocyst cannot insert itself into the uterine wall until it hatches, and hence a conception cannot occur.

What is the concept of Assisted Hatching?

Fertilization occurs in the lab during IVF therapy. However, as any couple who has undergone IVF therapy understands, having a fertilized embryo does not ensure pregnancy. For conception to occur, the transferred embryo must insert itself into the endometrium and “stick.”

There are several hypotheses as to why this happens, one of them is that the egg does not hatch properly. This loss of hatching may be due to the embryo having an unusually hard shell, or it could be due to something in the lab setting, such as the colonies used to hold the embryo alive or the cryopreservation (freezing) chemicals, interfering with the hatching process.

Assisted hatching is intended to overcome any obstacles that are impeding hatching. It is also hoped that it would increase the chances of successful implantation and, eventually, pregnancy.

Effectiveness of Assisted Hatching

The main question, of course, is if it’s worthwhile. Is it possible to carry a baby home with the assistance of assisted hatching?

Assisted hatching has been shown in clinical studies to improve the chances of implantation of transferred embryos.

Experts advise against using assisted hatching in all patients receiving IVF therapies to conceive. Assisted hatching can help boost pregnancy chances for some groups of patients, according to research. Assisted hatching may help increase pregnancy chances in women who have failed to conceive in previous IVF cycles or who have a poor prognosis (who are not likely to conceive).

Your health care professional will advise you about whether assisted hatching is right for you.

Who Is the Right Candidate for Assisted Hatching?

Several factors may potentially lead someone to assisted hatching via in vitro fertilization. Patients who have had multiple unsuccessful IVF cycles, patients whose embryos have an unusually thick zona pellucida, patients whose embryos are not growing as anticipated, patients with elevated FSH levels during the follicular process, and patients over the age of 35 will all benefit from assisted hatching. Since there are no known drawbacks and the potential for improved implantation speeds, Orion Hospital believes that our specialized assisted hatching strategies will support all IVF patients.

At Orion Hospital, we use cutting-edge technology and employ a variety of approaches to increase the chances of a healthy birth. Our most common assisted hatching methods include Laser-Assisted hatching, Partial zona dissection, and Acid Tyrode’s solution.

The majority of our assisted hatching patients at Orion Hospital are above the age of 35. If you are over the age of 35 and believe that assisted hatching could benefit you, you should get started right away. Assisted hatching, on the other hand, is secure and improves the likelihood of a fruitful birth. If you want to go through the assisted hatching phase, you can contact our experts at Orion IVF, the best IVF center in Wakad, right away.
