Natural cycle IVF is a safe procedure of in vitro fertilization for women to get pregnant without fertility medication. This process gives importance to the quality of one egg that is naturally selected and matured over the quantity of eggs. The egg can be used to either fertilize with sperm or can be frozen for future use.
Process of Natural IVF Cycle
The menstrual cycle is monitored through ultrasounds and blood tests to understand the time of ovulation. Prior to ovulation, the egg that is released every month is extracted and fertilized with the sperm in a laboratory. The fertilized egg is monitored before being implanted inside the woman’s uterus through a catheter.

The natural IVF cycle can be a ray of hope for:
- Older women who wish to experience fertility with their eggs
- History of hormone-dependent cancers
