Overview

 


Is ZIFT for you?

Your doctor may suggest ZIFT if your fallopian tubes are open and other methods of treatment have been unsuccessful, you have ovulation or cervical problems, or your partner has a low sperm count. But if his sperm count's really low, intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) is the preferred treatment.


Treatment: What to expect?

This procedure is similar to IVF, but allows fertilization to occur naturally inside your fallopian tubes.

Near the beginning of your menstrual cycle, you'll take a fertility drug that will stimulate your ovaries to develop several mature eggs for fertilization. (You normally release only one egg a month.) You may also need to take a synthetic hormone called Lupron to keep your body from releasing your eggs too early.

You'll visit your doctor's office or clinic often so she can monitor your blood hormone levels and ovaries with ultrasound to detect when your eggs are mature. Once they're mature, your doctor will give you an anesthetic and remove your eggs from your ovaries by inserting a needle through your vaginal wall, using the ultrasound for guidance. Minutes later, your doctor will combine your eggs with your partner's sperm and insert the mixture into your fallopian tubes through a small incision in your abdomen, using a fiber-thin tube called a laparoscope. She'll place about four eggs inside you. Any extras may be fertilized with your partner's sperm and frozen in case this treatment doesn't succeed.

If the treatment works, your partner's sperm will fertilize one of your eggs, forming an embryo that will implant in your uterus and grow into a baby. There is a chance that more than one embryo will implant and you'll give birth to multiples .

You'll be able to take a pregnancy test about two weeks after you have surgery. If you are impatient and take a test before this two week-window, it will be inaccurate because of the hormones that you took to stimulate your ovaries.
