It varies by patient, but many conceive within 1-3 cycles depending on age, diagnosis, and embryo quality. A personalized estimate is given during consultation.
Most steps involve minimal discomfort. Injections may cause mild soreness, and egg retrieval is done under sedation so pain during the procedure is avoided.
If you have been trying to conceive for over a year (or 6 months if you are above 35), it is a good time to consult a fertility specialist.
