The Reciprocal IVF method, step by step

Donor

Ovarian stimulation

A hormonal treatment to encourage the production of oocytes. Administration of the treatment lasts for 10 to 12 days and is easy and comfortable so it can be done at home. However, monitoring is needed to check progress and determine the optimum time to retrieve the eggs.
1

Follicular puncture

The technique used to remove the eggs. This is done on an outpatient basis with sedation (a mild anaesthesia).
2

Insemination

The eggs obtained are inseminated with the sperm of an anonymous donor from the bank. The donor is selected, as determined by Spanish legislation, so as to have the greatest possible physical similarity to the recipient; he will also be assigned based on genetic suitability.
3

Fertilisation and culture of embryos

The day after insemination, it is possible to find out how many eggs were fertilised; the embryos will then remain in culture for 3 to 6 days. Their development is monitored and the better quality ones are selected for transfer to the recipient.
4

Recipient

Preparation of the endometrium

The recipient begins hormone treatment to encourage the implantation of the embryo and development of the pregnancy. This process is synchronised with the hormonal stimulation of the partner (donor).
1

Embryo transfer

Once correct embryonic development is reached, the embryo or embryos to be transferred are selected and inserted in the uterus via the vagina. The process is quick and painless and requires no anaesthesia or time off work.
2

Confirmation of the pregnancy

Roughly 9 to 11 days later, a blood test is performed to check that the embryo was implanted and confirm the pregnancy.
