The Barriers She Faced

Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS)

Disrupted ovulation led to irregular cycles and often produced poor-quality eggs.

Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus

Affected ovarian function and egg quality, while also raising pregnancy risks like miscarriage and late-term complications.

Obesity and Hypertension

Made IVF outcomes poorer, increased risks during anesthesia, and negatively impacted implantation.

Unicornuate Uterus

Reduced uterine volume, which limited implantation capacity and raised miscarriage risk.

Severe Vaginismus

Involuntary pelvic muscle contractions that made procedures like IUI painful or nearly impossible.

Doctor's Quote

Doctor
“The key was to tailor every aspect of care to this patient's unique needs, balancing safety, comfort, and clinical effectiveness.”
Dr. Prachi Benara

The Treatment Plan that made the Difference

Direct IVF with Personalised Stimulation

Since IUI and other procedures were not possible, treatment began directly with IVF. Stimulation was customised to avoid hyper stimulation, which is a potential risk in women with PCOS, aiming for a gentler approach.

Safe Sedation and Anesthesia

Her obesity, hypertension, and diabetes required cautious anaesthetic management. The team used intravenous sedation for both egg retrieval and embryo transfer, keeping her safe and comfortable, without inducing airway management.

Embryo Selection and Transfer

High-quality blastocysts were developed. With ultrasound guidance, the transfer was carefully done to the most receptive region of her uterus.

Post-Transfer Care

After transfer, she was monitored closely. A multidisciplinary team of diabetes experts, endocrinologists, anesthetists, and fertility experts worked together to manage her health throughout the cycle.
