REPRODUCTIVE MEDICINE AND SURGERY CLINIC (CMCR)

We, at CMCR, are devoted to the study and treatment of the infertile couple, from low-complexity to high complexity treatments, such as Assisted Reproduction, supported by state-of-the-art technology. This enables us to achieve our main objective—that of offering the couple under treatment the best option in order to increase the probability of fertilization and of having a healthy pregnancy.

CMCR is under the direction of Dr. Antonio Mátar-Guerra, founder and General Director of the clinic. He has been recognized not only for his ample experience and specialization in reproductive medicine and surgery, but also for his professionalism, work ethic, commitment, and caring attitude towards all his patients. Our mission is to offer personalized medical attention to infertile couples, through our multidisciplinary team of specialists, who will contribute to increase the possibility of having a healthy baby of their own.

We, at CMCR, have ample experience in In-Vitro-Fertilization, Gamete transfer to Fallopian Tubes, and Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection into an egg. We are the only Assisted Reproduction Clinic in northern and most of central Mexico that carries out PGD (Preimplantation Genetic Diagnosis), a study performed on the embryo to be transferred, allowing us to diagnose gender related disorders, monogenic defects, and chromosome anomalies.

Our success pregnancy rate is from about 47% with In-Vitro-Fertilization to 53% with egg donation. These percentages are similar to those of internationally-renowned clinics of the US and Canada. We began our operations in February 2006, as part of and within CIMA-Santa Engracia Hospital, in Monterrey, Nuevo Leon. This is one of the best and most modern hospitals in our region and in the country. The hospital is equipped with the necessary facilities and infrastructure to offer world-class medical services. Likewise, at CMCR, we have laboratories equipped with avant-garde technology, X-Ray departments for specialized studies, modern equipment to perform 3D ecographic tests, and operating rooms equipped to perform surgeries related to the reproductive system.

  • - Maintain our high ethical, professional, and scientific level, and, above all, our caring attitude in all our treatments and services.

preguntas frecuentes
Which are the most frequent complications of Assisted Reproduction Procedures?
Ovarian hyperstimulation, Tubal pregnancies, Ovarian torsion, and other complications.
Does the malformation index increase with assisted reproduction methods?
By no means. The percentage of malformations in newborn babies as a result of In-Vitro-Fertilization techniques is not higher than that of the general population. In the information published around the world and in Latin America, malformation rates do not exceed the rates found in the general population of reproductive age (2.0 to 2.4% of the newborn babies examined).
What is the probability of having a multiple pregnancy?
The multiple gestation rate is in direct proportion to the number of transferred embryos and the woman’s age. The global rate of multiple gestation is 29%. This means that 29 out of 100 pregnancies begin with two or more gestational sacs. 10% of these will be spontaneously reduced to one sac, an event that usually occurs before week 12 of the gestation.
Where do the remaining ovocytes go?
Existen varias opciones a donde pueden ir los ovocitos remanentes.

Donación al laboratorio
: Los ovocitos donados en este caso, son utilizados para investigación, en cuyo caso debe ser especificado por parte de la Clínica, el tipo de investigación que se desarrollará con los gametos.

Donación a otra paciente (receptora) La donación de óvulos se realiza a parejas heterosexuales en que la mujer no tiene ovarios por razones genéticas, quirúrgicas o por radioterapia en tratamientos de cáncer. También se realiza en mujeres con falla ovárica prematura (menopausia precoz). Es decir, mujeres que nacieron con un número menor de óvulos y por ello su menopausia será prematura. También la donación está indicada, cuando la mujer es portadora de alguna enfermedad ligada a genes, que de ser transmitida ocasionaría enfermedades severas en la descendencia. Los óvulos donados son inseminados con los espermatozoides del marido/ pareja de la paciente que los recibe. Cualquiera sea la decisión de la paciente, esto debe ser respaldado por la firma de un consentimiento informado.
