How long does one form of treatment last?
Hormone stimulation in IVF treatments usually lasts 10–14 days. You have to make 3–5 appointments for one form of treatment. Visits where we monitor the response of the ovaries to the stimulation are usually quite short. If necessary, you and your spouse/partner are eligible for sick-leave on the day of oocyte collection. The embryo transfer is a short, painless procedure and does not necessarily require sick-leave. A pregnancy test two weeks after the transfer reveals whether or not the treatment has been successful.
