IVF Clinic in Bryant Park

Why Choose Spring Fertility for IVF in Bryant Park?

No two patients enter IVF with exactly the same biology or reproductive goals. Spring’s approach is therefore centered on individualized fertility care rather than assuming that every patient should follow the same treatment pathway.

Your Spring physician can use your fertility evaluation, ovarian reserve, age, reproductive history and previous response to treatment to develop an IVF protocol appropriate for your circumstances.

For patients living or working in New York City, location also matters. IVF frequently requires multiple early-cycle monitoring appointments within a relatively short period of time. Spring Fertility Bryant Park’s Midtown location provides a convenient option for patients seeking fertility care in central Manhattan.

Who May Be a Candidate for IVF?

In vitro fertilization (IVF) can address reproductive barriers that cannot always be overcome through intercourse or lower-intervention fertility treatment.

IVF may be considered for patients experiencing:

• Blocked or severely damaged fallopian tubes
• Male-factor infertility
• Endometriosis
• Diminished ovarian reserve
• Age-related fertility considerations
• Unexplained infertility
• Previous unsuccessful IUI or other fertility treatment
• Previous unsuccessful IVF treatment
• Reproductive circumstances involving donor eggs, donor sperm or a gestational carrier
• A need or desire for embryo genetic testing when clinically appropriate

IVF is not automatically necessary because someone has been diagnosed with infertility. The appropriate treatment depends on the specific reproductive barrier and the complete fertility picture.

What Happens at an IVF Consultation?

An IVF consultation is an opportunity to understand both whether IVF makes sense and how treatment might be approached in your particular circumstances.

Your fertility specialist can review your reproductive and medical history, how long you have been trying to conceive, previous pregnancies, previous fertility treatment, and your family-building goals.

Depending on what testing has already been completed, evaluation may include AMH, antral follicle count, pelvic ultrasound, reproductive hormone testing and additional assessment of reproductive anatomy when appropriate.

When conception involves a sperm-producing partner, semen analysis can also be an important part of determining whether IVF and/or ICSI may be appropriate.

How Does the IVF Process Work?

IVF allows several stages of reproduction to occur with the assistance of a fertility clinic and embryology laboratory.

A typical IVF cycle includes:

• Fertility assessment and treatment planning
• Ovarian stimulation
• Ultrasound and hormone monitoring
• Final egg maturation and trigger medication
• Egg retrieval
• Fertilization
• Embryo culture and development
• Embryo biopsy and genetic testing when selected
• Embryo transfer when appropriate
• Pregnancy testing and follow-up

The exact IVF timeline varies depending on your protocol and whether your treatment includes embryo freezing, genetic testing, embryo banking, or a frozen embryo transfer.

Ovarian Stimulation and IVF Monitoring

During IVF, fertility medications are used to encourage multiple ovarian follicles to develop during the same treatment cycle.

Spring’s ovarian stimulation phase commonly lasts approximately 8–12 days, although individual response and treatment protocols vary.

During stimulation, ultrasound and bloodwork allow your care team to assess follicle development and hormone response. Your medication doses and treatment timing can then be adjusted based on how your ovaries respond.

Once the follicles are ready, a trigger medication is used to support final egg maturation before egg retrieval.

Egg Retrieval

Egg retrieval is the procedural stage of an IVF cycle in which eggs are collected from the ovarian follicles.

The procedure is carefully timed following the final maturation trigger. Under anesthesia, a fertility physician uses ultrasound guidance to access the ovarian follicles and retrieve the eggs.

The retrieved eggs are then transferred to the embryology team, where mature eggs can proceed to fertilization.

Fertilization and ICSI

After retrieval, mature eggs may undergo conventional IVF insemination or intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI), depending on the treatment plan.

With conventional insemination, prepared sperm and eggs are placed together for fertilization. With ICSI, an embryologist injects an individual sperm directly into an egg.

ICSI may be considered for certain sperm-related fertility factors, previous fertilization concerns, or other clinical circumstances. It is not necessarily required for every IVF cycle.

Embryo Development and Genetic Testing

Following fertilization, embryos are cultured and observed as they develop in the embryology laboratory.

Embryos that continue developing may reach the blastocyst stage approximately five to six days after fertilization. Depending on the treatment plan, embryos may then be transferred or cryopreserved for future use.

Some patients may also consider preimplantation genetic testing (PGT). When testing is performed, cells are biopsied from an embryo and analyzed by a specialized genetics laboratory while the embryo remains cryopreserved.

Whether PGT is appropriate depends on individual reproductive history, age, genetic considerations, and treatment goals.

Embryo Transfer

During embryo transfer, an embryo is placed into the uterus using a thin catheter.

Depending on the treatment plan, patients may undergo a fresh embryo transfer or a frozen embryo transfer during a subsequent cycle. Patients pursuing embryo genetic testing generally undergo frozen embryo transfer after testing is complete.

Your physician can recommend a transfer strategy based on your treatment response, embryo development, reproductive history, and other clinical considerations.

Individualized IVF Protocols

The purpose of an IVF protocol is not simply to retrieve as many eggs as possible. Treatment should account for the individual patient’s ovarian biology and reproductive goals.

Factors that can influence an IVF protocol include:

• Age
• AMH and antral follicle count
• Previous response to ovarian stimulation
• Diagnosis
• Previous IVF outcomes
• Whether egg or embryo banking is planned
• Current and future family-building goals

These factors can help your Spring physician determine medication dosing, monitoring, and other aspects of the treatment strategy.

What Determines IVF Success?

IVF success is highly individualized. A clinic-wide percentage cannot tell an individual patient exactly what their chance of success will be.

Factors that can influence IVF outcomes include:

• Age
• Ovarian reserve
• Number of eggs retrieved
• Egg and sperm factors
• Fertilization
• Embryo development
• Embryo chromosomal status when known
• Uterine and reproductive factors
• Previous reproductive and IVF history

A personalized fertility evaluation can therefore provide substantially more useful context than relying on a single generalized IVF success rate.

IVF Second Opinions and Previous Treatment

You do not need to be new to fertility treatment to consult with Spring Fertility Bryant Park.

Patients may seek another opinion after unsuccessful IUI, a previous IVF cycle, unexpected fertilization or embryo-development results, a low response to stimulation, or when they want another physician to review the treatment strategy they have been given.

A second-opinion consultation can review previous protocols and outcomes alongside your current ovarian reserve, age, and reproductive goals to determine whether another treatment approach should be considered.

What happens during an IVF consultation?

Your fertility specialist reviews your reproductive history, previous testing and treatment, age, and family-building goals. Additional fertility testing may be recommended before determining whether IVF is appropriate and how treatment should be individualized.

How long does an IVF cycle take?

The ovarian-stimulation portion of IVF commonly lasts approximately 8–12 days, but the complete timeline depends on the treatment protocol and whether the cycle includes embryo genetic testing, cryopreservation, or frozen embryo transfer.

Does IVF always require ICSI?

No. Fertilization may occur through conventional IVF insemination or ICSI. ICSI may be recommended for certain sperm-related factors, previous fertilization concerns, or other clinical circumstances.

Can IVF help with blocked fallopian tubes?

Yes. IVF bypasses the fallopian tubes by retrieving eggs directly from the ovaries and allowing fertilization to occur in an embryology laboratory. This can make IVF an important treatment option when both tubes are blocked or severely damaged.

Can IVF be used for endometriosis?

Yes. IVF may be considered for some patients with endometriosis. Whether IVF is appropriate depends on factors such as age, ovarian reserve, reproductive anatomy, previous treatment, and the extent to which endometriosis may be affecting fertility.

Can IVF help with male-factor infertility?

Yes. IVF, sometimes combined with ICSI, can help address certain sperm-related fertility factors. The appropriate treatment depends on semen-analysis findings and the complete fertility evaluation. Learn more about male fertility testing in New York City and male fertility treatment.

Should I get a second opinion after failed IVF?

A second opinion may be useful after an unsuccessful IVF cycle, particularly if you want another fertility specialist to review your stimulation response, fertilization, embryo development, transfer history, or overall treatment strategy.

Is IVF my only option if I have infertility?

No. Depending on the cause of infertility, age, ovarian reserve, reproductive anatomy, and sperm health, continued attempts to conceive, ovulation-focused treatment, or IUI may be reasonable alternatives. Your fertility specialist can help determine which approach fits your circumstances. Learn more about female infertility treatment in New York City.
