Stay Requirement
  A. Stay requirement for male partner
  B. Stay requirement for female partner
 
Stay requirement for Male partner
Presence of male partner is required during the course of IVF treatment for following reasons.
  1. Give his semen-sperm.
  2. Sign the consent papers.
  3. Moral support and take care of the female partner.
The male partner’s semen is required only once during the treatment.
  A. He can give his semen at the time of ovum pickup-egg recovery.
  B. Any time before the treatment.
Semen can be frozen and used at the time of ovum pickup. We routinely advice the male partner to give one semen sample before the actual date of ovum pickup. The given sample can be frozen and can be kept as a “stand by”. Incase, for whatever reason, the male partner cannot give semen on the day of ovum pickup, this frozen sample can be used and the IVF treatment cycle can be completed successfully without any problem. This advance freezing of semen sample is also useful for the male partner who fined it difficult to give semen sample “on demand”, and under stress. It is also useful to the male partner who fined it difficult to produce a semen sample in an unfamiliar environment.

The man can produce semen sample at home or in a hotel room and give it to Bavishi Fertility Institute for freezing and storage.

Freezing and storage of one semen sample before the actual date of egg recovery releases the stress on male partner about the “compulsory and timely production” of semen sample at ovum pickup”.

From above discussion it should be clear that as male partner may come only for one day, give his semen, sign the papers and leave. The treatment of female partner can continue.
 
Stay requirement for female partner for One IVF cycle
IVF cycles are using two different types of treatment protocols: -
  A. Long Protocol
  B. Antagonist Protocol
  (A) Long Protocol: -
   
This protocol is a long protocol. It takes approximately 30 days from start of the treatment till completion of the treatment. 13 more days required outcome of the treatment cycle conventionally, this protocol is used more frequently because of its advantages.
    Advantages: -
  A. It is a time-tested protocol and gives consistent results.
  B. It gives more flexibility in treatment plan.
  C. It is slightly economical.
Long treatment has its disadvantages also.
    Disadvantages: -
  A. Very long duration of the treatment for completion of one IVF cycle.
  B. Patient has to take more number of injections.
Usually, in a long protocol IVF cycle the medicines (injections) start from day 15 to day 25 of previous menstrual cycle. That means if a patient is planning her egg recovery in March, the treatment has to start in February. The protocol can be flexible as per the convenience of the patient by preponing or postponing. The expected menstrual cycle, by tablets.

The first half of long protocol, which last for about 12-15 days, is a very simple treatment and does not require active medical supervision. Hence, if a patient wants to stay at Ahmedabad/India for fewer days and still wants a long protocol treatment, it is possible. The patient has to get some medication any injections from the place where they stay and self-administered the medicine as per our guidance. It can save 12-15 days of stay in Ahmedabad/India means 15 more days of working and stay in with the family!!!

If the female partner cannot stay for 15 days of IVF cycle and still wants to take the long protocol treatment, it is still possible. In that case, she has to take help of a local IVF clinic or a Gynecologist for initiation of her second stage of treatment. She can then travel to India in the middle of her treatment cycle. We can complete her treatment cycle, do egg recovery, do fertilization (ICSI), do embryo transfer and the patient can go back in 5-7 days time also.
  (B) Antagonist Protocol:-
   
Now, we have a newer drug, called “Antagonist”. It gives similar effect in a very short duration of time.

The treatment starts in the same menstrual month and ends in the same menstrual month.

The patient has to arrive before second or third day of her period. The treatment continues for app. 15 days. Patient may go back to her place and get the blood test at her place.
 
Stay requirement for Female Partner for one Cycle of Antagonist.
Antagonist is a drug, which has similar effect to agonist. (The drug use for long protocol). The difference is they have immediate effect and reversal from the effect also immediate; hence they produce effect immediately on administration and do not require starting of treatment from previous menstruation cycle. That is the reason why sometimes this protocol is called as short protocol, but should be correctly called as Antagonist Protocol.

Here in antagonist protocol stimulation (Injection for producing more eggs) are started in the same treatment cycle without any pretreatment in the previous menstruation cycle, unlike long protocol antagonist are given in the middle of the cycle to prevent pre mature LH search and make the cycle more successful. As we don’t start any treatment in previous cycle.
  1. You don’t have to start treatment in previous cycle, without meeting us.
  2. You can complete one IVF treatment cycle in one menstruation cycle month.
  3. Treatment becomes shorter and more convenient.
Advantages of Antagonist IVF Treatment Cycle.
  1. You don’t have to start treatment without seeing us.
  2. You don’t have to manage the medicines, which might be difficult for you to get.
  3. Your stay becomes shorter in Ahmedabad.
  4. Success rate of Antagonist cycle is almost similar to the long protocol cycle.
Disadvantages of Antagonist IVF Treatment Cycle.
  1.
If you want to adjust your treatment cycle dates according to your convenience of traveling to India, you might have take some medicines. Success rate is almost similar, may be slightly lower then long protocol cycle. The cost of antagonist cycle works out approximately Rs. 5,000 to Rs 10,000,more

From our description we hope, it is clear in your mind that we can complete your one IVF treatment cycle in very short stay of up to five to seven days. If you not likely to get export medical health in your country you need at least 15 to 20 days to stay in India.
  2.

Stay Requirement for more than one IVF Treatment Cycle.
If you are planning for second IVF treatment cycle, if just in case of the first cycle fails, you can very easily do so if you plan in advance. It can save your cost, time and hazel of go in back to your county and coming to India again for the second treatment.

After we do embro transfer (Put the embros back in to your uterus), you have to wait for 13 to 15days to confirm the out come of the treatment. If the outcome is positive you continue to the treatment. If the outcome of the treatment is negative you have to stop the medicines which you r taking to support a pregnancy once you stop the medicines usually you get your period in 2 to 5days.

Your next treatment cycle can start only after confirmation of the outcome of the first pregnancy and getting your period.

Your second treatment cycle can commence immediately after the first treatment cycle there is no need to wait further. If you take the second cycle has antagonist cycle you can start stimulation from Day 3 of your period. Your treatment up to embro transfer can usually be completed in 12 to 15days that means if we calculate from starting of stimulation from first IVF cycle till completion of second embro transfer you need approximately 45days.If you decide to take long protocol cycle for your second treatment cycle, it may required approximately 40 to 45days more after getting your period after the first unsuccessful IVF treatment cycle. Treatment plan for one protocol remains as usual.
 
Stay Requirement for more than two IVF Treatment Cycle.
Sometimes in a situation like it is difficult to take leave from the job.
  1.
It disturb your business because of frequent irregularities. It  all ready late for you to conceive and you have decided to continue the treatment till you achieve your goal of pregnancy.
  2.
Female partner is not working and does not mind staying in India for sometimes till pregnancy is achieve or achieved pregnancy becomes more viable etc.
  3.
In all above circumstances female partner can decide to stay longer enough to achieved her goal by trying more than to attempts IVF treatment cycles, if required.

Duration of stay for every additional cycle will depend upon weather it is an  antagonist  or a long protocol treatment cycle, as all ready describe above.
