IVF performance
The results of IVF in Krasnoyarsk are mostly positive, judging by the reviews, regardless of the clinic chosen by the patient. Here, almost 51% are patients living in the Krasnoyarsk Territory and 41% are citizens of other regions. More than half of all cases end with the onset of pregnancy and the bearing of a healthy baby. Most often these are women under 35 years old. In world practice, this number is 10-15% less.
But if in countries with developed medicine after the first procedure IVF successfully gives birth to 36-50% of all women, then this figure for Russia is only 15-30%. With a second attempt to conceive a baby, it is possible in 56-92% of cases. IVF data in the perinatal center of Krasnoyarsk confirm these statistics, since all maternity hospitals keep track of how the baby was conceived.
Moreover, in European countries it is permissible to do IVF only 3-4 times, in Russia even at the expense of compulsory medical insurance it can be done an unlimited number of times, which only increases the chances of a successful conception. In most cases, pregnancy occurs on the 2-3rd attempt, but sometimes up to 10 procedures are required.
Conclusion
IVF in Krasnoyarsk can be done both at your own expense and for free, using the quotas of compulsory medical insurance. But for this you need to go through a full examination, collect all the necessary documents and submit it to the commission for consideration. If a positive result is made, it will be possible to undergo infertility treatment in turn in one of the clinics of the city. According to most patients, such a desired pregnancy occurs already from the 2nd-3rd attempt, but it can be the first time, which depends on the general health of the patient, as well as the cause of infertility.
