Who are ideal candidates for IVF Lite?

Patients with any 1 or 2 of the below mentioned criteria would benefit from Mini IVF.

• Women with advance age – 38 yrs or above.

• Young women with polycystic ovaries.

Advantages of IVF lite over Conventional IVF

• Few injections needed - improved patient compliance.
• Easy on finances - less dose and lesser injections needed.
• Less number of visits to the clinic so there is very little interference with work schedules and other regular commitments.
• High quality eggs and more number of euploid embryos, even though few in number.
• More physiological.
• Lowers risk of hyper-stimulation (in polycystic ovaries).
• Success rates comparable to conventional IVF especially in older women, women with previous conventional IVF failures, poor responders or hyper responders.

Disadvantages of IVF Lite

• As in IVF Lite fewer eggs are formed per cycle, there may be a need for multiple cycles in order to accumulate optimum number of eggs / embryos.
• IVF Lite can occasionally result in poor or no response at all, necessitating cycle cancellation.
• A well-equipped laboratory capable of successfully vitrifying and thawing eggs is absolutely mandatory for this form of IVF.
