In vitro maturation

In vitro maturation (IVM).

Not every ovarian stimulation plan needs to look the same. In vitro maturation is one of the approaches our clinical group has helped develop into a real possibility for patients in Brazil.

Maturation in the laboratory.

In vitro maturation, or IVM, involves collecting immature eggs and supporting their maturation in a controlled laboratory environment. Mature eggs may then be fertilized as part of treatment.

IVM can reduce the need for intensive ovarian stimulation in selected circumstances. It is not appropriate for everyone and should be considered alongside established alternatives.

A decision grounded in your health.

Our clinics describe IVM as an option for selected patients with polycystic ovaries or situations in which conventional stimulation may not be suitable. Your specialist needs to assess the potential benefits, limitations and expected outcomes in your own case.

Experience that informs the present.

Dr. Nilo Frantz's clinical biography records his role in the first Latin American birth following IVM. That history sits behind an ongoing commitment to individualized reproductive care—not a claim that one technique is best for every patient.
