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.
