Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know
What is the laser assisted hatching procedure?
To help generate an opening, laser beams are employed to soften the zona pellucida. The laser is used really carefully and precisely, and it won’t come into direct contact with the embryo. The embryo’s safety is guaranteed by this process.
What is the rate of successful laser assisted hatching?
Laser assisted hatching is effective in increasing clinical pregnancy rates. The chances of getting pregnant through IVF increases to 95% with LAH technology, while the embryo survival rate varies from 75%.
Is hatching done now, or is it not done during an IVF cycle?
Assisted hatching may increase the possibility of a genuine pregnancy among some patients. For those who had earlier IVF failures, laser assisted hatching might play an instrumental role in conceiving pregnancy.
Does an embryo have a firm implantation with assisted hatching?
By promoting initial attachment between early embryos and the endometrium, it can also mechanically increase the rate of hatching.
How much does it cost to have laser-assisted hatching in India?
The cost for laser-assisted hatching is approximately INR 15,000 to INR 30,000 at various IVF facilities in India.
Is Laser-Assisted Hatching safe for the embryo?
Yes, LAH is a safe and highly controlled procedure performed under strict laboratory conditions by experienced embryologists. The laser minimizes physical contact, reducing the risk of damage to the embryo.
Does Laser-Assisted Hatching increase the chances of pregnancy?
For suitable candidates, LAH can improve implantation rates and increase the likelihood of pregnancy, especially in cases of thick zona pellucida or repeated IVF failures.
Is Laser-Assisted Hatching performed for all IVF patients?
No, LAH is not necessary for all patients. It’s recommended based on factors like age, embryo quality, and prior IVF outcomes. Your doctor will advise if it’s suitable for your case.
How can I prepare for a Laser-Assisted Hatching procedure?
No special preparation is required for LAH itself, as it’s done in the lab. However, following your doctor’s guidelines for IVF treatment, maintaining a healthy lifestyle, and managing stress are important.
Is Laser-Assisted Hatching painful?
No, LAH is performed on embryos in the laboratory before transfer. The patient doesn’t experience any pain during this process.
