Overview
Not everyone wants to go through IVF with a full round of hormone injections. That’s where Natural Cycle IVF comes in. It works with the single egg your body already produces each month, so there’s no ovarian stimulation involved. For couples who want a gentler route, or whose bodies simply respond better without added hormones, this can be a good fit.
This package at Dr. Mazen IVF is overseen by Dr. Mazen himself. He’s a fertility specialist with over 20 years in the field, and he’s guided thousands of couples through their fertility journey. Before anyone starts a Natural Cycle plan, he reviews the case personally to make sure it actually makes sense for that patient. Not every case is right for it, and he’ll tell you honestly if it isn’t.
In terms of what actually happens: the process includes ovarian monitoring, egg retrieval, ICSI (a single sperm is injected directly into the egg), and finally embryo transfer. The package itself begins on day one of monitoring and wraps up after the first scan that confirms a heartbeat.
