IVF Cycle Troubleshooting: What Can Go Wrong and How to Fix It | Podcast 17 | Dr Rhythm Gupta

Welcome to yet another, enriching and informative episode of Fertility Focus!

IVF can be an emotionally and physically challenging journey for many couples. From missed injections to failed fertilization, there are several points in the process where things can go unexpectedly wrong. This video is for every couple going through IVF who wants to understand what can go wrong — and more importantly, what to do about it.

This episode is a detailed, experience-based conversation between experts addressing real scenarios and offering solutions that can help improve outcomes.

Topics we cover in this IVF troubleshooting episode:
✅What if I missed my IVF injection or took it at the wrong time?
It depends on which injection you missed. Some can be adjusted, others can't.
✅What happens if the injection is not stored properly or gets warm?
Storage temperature is crucial. Improper storage may reduce its effectiveness.
✅Can I still continue the cycle if I missed an entire day of injections?
In some cases, yes. It depends on blood hormone levels and timing.
✅What if I ate food before egg retrieval even though I was told to fast?
This can be dangerous under anesthesia. Special steps are needed.
✅What happens when no eggs are retrieved after stimulation?
It can be due to early ovulation or a rare condition like Empty Follicle Syndrome.
✅What if the male partner cannot give a semen sample on the day of retrieval?
Options like backup freezing or surgical retrieval can help.
✅What does it mean when fertilization fails even after eggs and sperm are collected?
This is called Total Fertilization Failure. Alternative techniques may help.
✅Why do embryos turn out poor quality or fragmented?
It may be due to egg/sperm quality, lab conditions, or both.
✅Is embryo transfer timing flexible according to astrology or personal preference?
Some steps can be adjusted, but key timings like trigger and retrieval cannot be changed.
✅Can I attend family functions or dance after embryo transfer?
Light activity is okay after 2 days, but avoid exertion right after transfer.
✅What should I do if the IVF cycle fails?
Take time to process. IVF failure doesn’t mean the end. Understand what went wrong and plan the next step with your doctor.
