What is Conventional IVF?

The fastest route to a successful pregnancy for many NYC IVF patients is conventional IVF. With this procedure, individually tailored fertility medications are given to the mother-to-be to stimulate the growth and development of many eggs. This stimulation takes a few days, during which time the woman will be monitored in our office for 2-3 days. This is done with ultrasound imaging and blood tests. Adjustments are made in the medicine to achieve the best outcome.

Once the eggs are ready, an “egg retrieval” is performed in the office. In this process, the eggs are collected via a procedure called “aspiration” and prepared for fertilization, which takes place in our controlled laboratory setting.

When the eggs have been fertilized with sperm, they are allowed to develop in the laboratory for 3 to 5 days. In the meantime, the woman takes progesterone daily to help the uterine lining prepare for the implantation of an embryo. When the optimal time arrives, the most viable embryos are transferred to the uterus, where they have the opportunity to implant in the uterine wall and develop into a pregnancy.

Advantages Of Conventional IVF

NYC IVF patients looking for an IVF Clinic that offers conventional IVF treatment can count on Neway Fertility to offer the latest treatment protocols. Conventional IVF is a faster way of developing a successful pregnancy. There are also benefits in that the embryo can be tested for certain genetic disorders. If there are excess embryos, they can be frozen for future frozen embryo transfers. This method also allows for LGBTIQ parents to plan for a family using donor eggs or donor sperm.

Disadvantages Of Conventional IVF

Conventional IVF may need more than one cycle to be successful. It requires several trips to the office for monitoring. Fertility medications can cause discomfort and may have some undesired side effects. These can include headache, gastrointestinal discomfort, nausea, breast tenderness, or hot flashes.

Hyperstimulation syndrome is another effect of fertility drugs. Some women experience vomiting, diarrhea, pain in the area of the ovaries, dark urine, decreased urination, rapid weight gain, or shortness of breath. When this condition is severe, it can result in hospitalization and may be associated with poor pregnancy outcomes.

The NYC IVF medical team at Neway Fertility understands the risks and rewards of conventional IVF, and we will help you through every step of the way. Schedule a consultation appointment with one of our doctors at our Upper West Side location to find out if conventional IVF is your best option for pregnancy.

Who Are the Best Candidates For Conventional IVF?

Conventional IVF may be the right option for individuals or couples who have been struggling to conceive due to age-related infertility, ovulation disorders, tubal factor infertility, or unexplained infertility. It’s also often recommended for those who haven’t had success with other fertility treatments like IUI or minimal stimulation IVF. At Neway Fertility in New York, we understand that no two journeys are alike. That’s why Dr. Kort takes the time to fully evaluate your medical history, lifestyle, and family-building goals to ensure that IVF is the most appropriate and effective step forward for you.

What’s the First Step?

Your journey begins with a compassionate, one-on-one consultation at our New York clinic. During this visit, Dr. Kort will review your fertility history, answer your questions, and walk you through what to expect from Conventional IVF—from hormone stimulation to embryo transfer. We understand how overwhelming this process can be, so our team makes it a priority to create a space for your concerns, hopes, and voice. This first step isn’t just about testing and planning; it’s about being heard, supported, and seen.

What to Expect on the Day of Conventional IVF Surgery

The egg retrieval procedure takes place at our New York facility and typically lasts around 20 to 30 minutes. On the day of your procedure, you’ll be greeted by our experienced clinical team and given light sedation to keep you comfortable. Guided by ultrasound, Dr. Kort will retrieve the mature eggs from your ovaries using a thin needle. Most patients describe the experience as manageable and straightforward, with minimal discomfort and a supportive team by their side throughout. After a short recovery period, you’ll be able to rest at home the same day.

Conventional IVF Recovery

Following your egg retrieval procedure, it’s completely normal to experience mild cramping, bloating, or light spotting. Most patients feel well enough to resume light activities the next day, though we recommend taking it easy for a day or two. Every recovery looks a little different, and your body’s response to hormone stimulation and egg retrieval may vary. Our team will provide detailed aftercare instructions and stay closely in touch with you in the days following your procedure. The fertilized embryos will be carefully monitored in our lab, and depending on your treatment plan, you may return for a fresh embryo transfer within a few days or opt to freeze your embryos for future use.

  • I was incredibly grateful for the experience, thoughtfulness, and care provided by the team at Neway

    IVF is not a journey anyone wants to take. It is a roller coaster of emotions that is only made easier with a wonderful support system. We found that at Neway – with Dr. Zimmerman and the entire nursing team. Ours wasn’t an immediate success story – it took multiple cycles to become pregnant. But I was incredibly grateful for the experience, thoughtfulness, and care provided by the team at Neway. I cannot recommend them highly enough for anyone on this journey.
