How are the eggs removed?
The eggs will be removed from your ovaries in a minor surgical procedure called transvaginal ovarian aspiration. An ultrasound probe will be inserted into your vagina. A thin needle attached to the probe will be inserted into each follicle. Using suction, the egg and liquid inside each follicle are removed. You may be given painkillers, sedatives, or anesthesia during the retrieval, which lasts about 30 minutes. When all the eggs have been retrieved, you will recover for a few hours before going “home” (one of our executive apartments in India or your hotel). You must have someone drive you to your lodging, following the procedure. You will need to rest for the day. Along with your lodging, meals and laundry, all transportation to and from medical appointments and the airport in India will be taken care of for you by PFS’ Indian-based affiliate BestMed Journeys, both before and after your procedure.
