5. he modern age of fast-paced demanding lives with
Tsedentary and stressful routines have put forth few
challenges that include lifestyle disorders like
obesity, fertility issues, etc. Several couples have been
facing the challenges of conceiving despite several years of
their marriage. In this scenario, many treatment centers and
clinics have mushroomed in the past decade which hardly
yield any results regardless of spending heavy fees.
This has led to the need for reliable and result-oriented
fertility centers that can eļ¬ectively address the issue.
Qualiļ¬ed gynecologists and fertility experts oļ¬er scientiļ¬c
fertility solutions based on proper diagnosis and
consultation about the lifestyle, diet and habits of the
couple. With modern clinical solutions and innovative
treatments, the fertility centers are oļ¬ering a new hope to
the couples aspiring for parenthood. Fertility centers play a
vital role in helping individuals and couples achieve their
dreams of parenthood. With the rising prevalence of fertility
issues and advancements in reproductive technologies,
these centers provide comprehensive care, specialized
treatments, and emotional support.
Fertility centers house highly trained and experienced
reproductive specialists, including fertility doctors,
embryologists, and nurses. These experts possess
specialized knowledge in reproductive medicine and
provide personalized care to individuals and couples facing
fertility challenges. They conduct thorough evaluations,
diagnose underlying causes of infertility, and develop
customized treatment plans tailored to each patient's needs.
The expertise and specialized care oļ¬ered by fertility
centers ensure that patients receive the most eļ¬ective and
appropriate treatments to maximize their chances of
achieving pregnancy.
Modern fertility clinics are equipped with state-of-the-art
facilities and advanced reproductive technologies. These
technologies, such as in vitro fertilization (IVF),
intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI), and
preimplantation genetic testing (PGT), enable the diagnosis
and treatment of various fertility conditions. Fertility
centers provide access to cutting-edge techniques that
enhance fertility outcomes, including cryopreservation of
eggs, sperm, and embryos for future use. The availability of
these advanced reproductive technologies at fertility centers
oļ¬ers hope to individuals and couples struggling with
infertility, expanding their options and increasing the
chances of successful conception.

10. Our sole mission is to
enable couples to have their
own biological child through
advanced fertility treatments.
12. or millions of modern couples, becoming parents is
Fthe ultimate miracle they keep wishing to happen in
their life. Due to multifarious reasons and various
factors, biological parenthood dreams remain out of reach
for them. Instead for many over time, that dream might turn
into a nightmare.
According to Oasis Fertilityās Co-founder and Managing
Director Mr Kiran Gadela, almost 27.5 million couples in
India face infertility but hardly 3% seek assistance from a
fertility centre. Mr Gadela states, āThis huge gap has to
narrow down. Creating awareness is the need of the hour.ā
In this prevalent scenario, surmounting many challenges
and coming as the brightest rays of hope for this huge
populace of couples under the exemplary leadership of Mr
Gadela, and Dr Durga G Rao, Co-founder and Medical
Director, the Oasis Fertility team is carrying out a lot of
awareness campaigns to highlight the importance of fertility
evaluation at the right time. Mr Gadela shares, āBy way of
conducting free fertility consultation camps in semi-urban
and rural areas, we aspire to bridge the gap.ā
Mr Gadela remembers that a decade ago, as they observed a
huge lacuna in terms of standardized treatment and
protocols in the fertility segment, they set up Oasis Fertility
which since then is functioning as a one-stop destination
oļ¬ering various services.
Fulļ¬lling Your Parenthood Dreams
Mr Gadela informs that they oļ¬er a wide array of services
including OI-TI, IUI, IVF, ICSI, IVM, Donor treatments,
Fertility Preservation, TESA, Micro-TESE, Varicocele
Surgeries, DNA fragmentation tests, etc.
He mentions that conditions like endometriosis, uterine
ļ¬broids, and polyps are on the rise in women and at Oasis,
they have the expertise of laparoscopy and hysteroscopy
that could correct these issues and enable natural concep-
tion.
With Class 10,000 labs, centralized air handling unit, they
have the best IVF labs on par with international standards
backed by in-house embryologists, experienced clinical
heads, etc. They also have employed EWS which is an
advanced technology that negates the possibilities of IVF
sample mismatch.
At Oasis Fertility, technology has always been Mr Gadela,
Dr Durga Rao and the teamās driving force and they have
been assisting couples to achieve their family goals through
advanced tech-based personalized fertility treatment options
and a holistic approach. With 25+ centres pan India, they
have captured a major market share due to their patient-
centricity and commitment to excellence.
By way of conducting free
fertility consultation camps in
semi-urban and rural areas,
we aspire to bridge the gap of
couples seeking parenthood help.
13. Your Miracle, Our Mission
Mr Gadela furthers, āWe never compromise on
quality; ethics and transparency are our core principles.
As an organization, we donāt believe in running the rat
race. Every act or treatment done in our organization is
in line with moral values. We advise a realistic and
comprehensive treatment methodology based on the
coupleās condition and help fertility-challenged
couples to have a smooth, less stressful parenthood
experience.ā
They staunchly believe in Competence, Compassion,
Conļ¬dentiality, Carefulness, and Customization. With
100+ highly qualiļ¬ed fertility specialists and
embryologists, and a strong IT integration for seamless
operations, Oasis Fertility is backed by an experienced
and agile leadership and management team. āOur sole
mission is to enable couples to have their own
biological child through advanced fertility treatments,ā
states Mr Gadela.
He also reveals that AndroLife is their dedicated male
fertility centre that caters to all male infertility issues.
With advanced treatment options and experienced
Andrologists, AndroLife has been helping men with
much-needed space and privacy.
Moreover, OSHERM is their academic wing and they
have presented several research papers in International
organizations like ESHRE, ASRM, etc. Their fertility
experts regularly participate in CMEs (Continuous
Medical Education programs) to stay updated regard-
ing the latest advancements in the ļ¬eld of reproductive
medicine. āThrough our state-of-the-art stand-alone
training facility and simulators, we oļ¬er training to
fertility specialists, embryologists, scientists, etc.,ā says
Mr Gadela.
He also says another important issue that doesnāt get
fair treatment is secondary infertility which is the
inability to have a second child. Though many couples
face this issue, they donāt speak out as they live with
preconceived notions. Advanced treatment options are
available to overcome secondary infertility and if the
couples are above 35 and unable to conceive, they
need to visit a fertility specialist within six months.
He adds, āNot only us, but the entire industry has also
got to be vigorous and dynamic in breaking the taboo
around infertility and creating space for people to open
up about infertility.ā
Shining Stars of Oasis Fertility
Mr Gadela along with Dr Durga Rao are the guiding force
behind the success of Oasis Fertility and are continuously
driving IVF excellence through their expertise, knowledge, and
agile leadership. āOur organization is dynamic, resilient, and
upbeat,ā expresses Mr Gadela.
Dr Durga Rao inspires the experts to deliver only the best. With
more than 18 years of experience, she is one of the leading
voices in the fertility industry. By being abreast with the latest
technology and sharing her expertise with fellow specialists, she
leads the way.
She conveys, āARTis is our in-house developed patient-centric,
cloud-based integrated software application that ensures
India's Best IVF & Fertility Centres- 2022

Medical Director
14. seamless interconnectivity among all stakeholders like
patients, front oļ¬ce, nurses, embryologists, pharmacy, scan
room, etc.ā Medical reports and scans are stored online and
it is easily accessible by the patient anytime from anywhere.
Complex Issues, Focused Solutions
According to Mr Gadela creating awareness about the need
for male fertility evaluation as well has been their topmost
priority. He shares the fact that males contribute to about
50% of infertility but the kind of social taboo present in our
country doesnāt allow the male partner to openly discuss it.
āThis is the reason which made us set up an exclusive male
clinic ā AndroLife,ā he says.
Many men remain in silence as they donāt know the
tremendous treatment possibilities that can help them in
attaining fatherhood. Even men with low sperm count can
have the chance of having a biological child instead of
going for donor sperm. There are really a lot of good things
happening in this space. āWe oļ¬er all advanced treatment
options for men backed by expert Andrologists,ā he states.
Assuring International Quality Benchmarks
Being an experienced leader and sharing his opinion on
how adopting modern technologies like AI and ML is
impacting the IVF and Fertility Treatment space and how
Oasis Fertility is adapting to the change, Mr Gadela says
that AI is deļ¬nitely creating momentum. āBeing a techie
myself, I would embrace it wherever possible. With a very
huge data bank, we can be future-ready to apply ML to
predict possible outcomes,ā he adds. Prediction models can
give conļ¬dence to couples by predicting the success rate
and also help in improving the chances of conception by
selecting the best embryo.
Further sharing the major factors that contribute to their
high IVF success rates, Mr Gadela says that it varies from
couple to couple and though various factors inļ¬uence the
success rate, the quality of the embryo that is chosen for
implantation plays a very crucial role in determining the
chance of conception. āWe have in-house embryologists
who are highly skilled and work round the clock enabling
the monitoring and selection of the best embryos for the
15. IVF process,ā he assures. Their dedication, observational
and decision-making skills play a key role in improving
IVF success rates.
The other major factor is the right fertility evaluation of the
couple and the design of highly personalized and speciļ¬c
treatment protocol by the clinicians that helps in increasing
the rate of conception in the ļ¬rst IVF cycle itself in the case
of many couples. One size will not ļ¬t all and hence
customized treatments and medications have to be advised
as per the age of the couple, their medical history, etc.
A Holistic Healthcare Encompassing Approach
The success rate can also be aļ¬ected if the implantation is
not planned on the right day. Advanced technology like
ERA helps them identify the right day on which the
endometrium is most receptive.
He adds, āWith advanced age, the chances of chromosomal
abnormalities in womenās egg increases, and hence by use
of PGT, (advanced genetic testing), we can pick the best
embryos for implantation.ā
All said and done, only a holistic approach that encom-
passes a healthy diet routine, exercise regimen, and good
lifestyle changes in addition to fertility treatment can act as
a catalyst in improving the outcome.
Spreading the Good News
According to Mr Gadela, many couplesā trend of postpon-
ing parenthood is quite increasing. Womenās biological
clock cannot be rewound and people should know that
fertility tends to decrease with age. The chances of
chromosomal abnormality in eggs increases after a woman
hits her 30s and this can result in miscarriage, genetic
disorders in the child, and many other complications. Social
Freezing can make it possible to have oneās cake and eat it
too. Couples who prefer to delay parenthood can store eggs,
sperms, or embryos, and use those in the future to conceive
through IVF.
Cancer and treatments like Chemotherapy aļ¬ect fertility
potential. Even cancer patients too can preserve their
fertility before cancer treatment and enjoy the possibility of
parenthood once they are done with cancer treatment. He
believes, āI feel though we have seen a lot of advancements
in this space, not many are aware of these. One of our key
goals is to spread this good news as much as possible.ā
His advice to budding entrepreneurs who aspire to venture
into the IVF & Fertility Treatment space is,
Åø Be open to engaging with people who have diļ¬erent
skillsets and who are innovative,
Åø Create new leaders in the organization who can be the
torchbearers in spreading the ethos and culture,
Åø Make the right partnerships,
Åø Need to have a service-oriented attitude
Advanced treatment options are
available to overcome secondary
infertility and if the couples are
above 35 and unable to conceive,
they need to visit a fertility
specialist within six months.
16. Expanding Hope
On envisioning scaling Oasis Fertilityās operations and
oļ¬erings in the future, Mr Gadela shares that there is a lot
of opportunity in Tier 2 and Tier 3 cities and they have
geared up to make their services accessible and aļ¬ordable
to these cities too. āWe have left no stone unturned in
providing the best facilities and personalized fertility
treatment options to people living in the periphery or rural
areas as well through the launch of our full-ļ¬edged IVF
labs,ā he mentions.
Further revealing the steps taken by Oasis Fertility towards
the ART (Regulation) Bill, 2021, Mr Gadela puts that
Fertility centres have mushroomed all over and this
necessitates the enactment of strict laws and regulations that
would curtail unethical practices in the ļ¬eld of reproductive
medicine. The government has set a clear demarcation for
Level 1 and Level 2 fertility clinics and proposed many
changes in how gametes/embryos have to be stored or used.
āThis is deļ¬nitely a good thing and as a patient-centric and
law-abiding organization, we have put in place all mea-
sures as suggested by the Bill. All treatments, procedures,
etc. are in compliance with the ART (Regulation) Bill,ā he
asserts.
The Glimmering Glory
Mentioning special award/ranking that Oasis Fertility has
received, Mr Gadela says that their commitment to
providing the best care and services to patients has earned
them the reputation of trusted experts in fertility. āThe
prestigious Times of India has ranked us the No.1 fertility
centre in Hyderabad for seven consecutive years and ranked
us the No.1 in South India and No.1 in India in its All India
Lifestyle Hospital and Clinic Ranking Survey 2022. This is
a testimony to our sincere eļ¬orts, expertise, and dedica-
tion,ā he adds.

them achieve the best medical outcomes along with the
highest levels of patient satisfaction:
* Personalized Treatment Plans ā ART's physicians focus
on understanding the root cause of infertility issues and
design speciļ¬c treatment plans to suit patients' needs. This
includes understanding the patient's medical history,
lifestyle, and endocrine proļ¬le, doing detailed semen
analysis, and Ultrasound. ART's stimulation protocols are
completely individualized based on the patient's hormone

equipment.
* Ethics and Transparency in Treatment and Pricing ā
At ART Fertility Clinics the cornerstone of their clinical
practice is ethics and transparency. They have published
package rates for various medical conditions and adhere to

21. also includes turning around more than ten Fortis Escorts
centers in India and abroad. A major milestone in his career
was the launch of Fortis Gurgaon as its Program Director.
Concerning his clinical role, Dr Somesh is an Oncologist
trained at Rajiv Gandhi Cancer Institute and has practiced
as a Consultant for several years at various acclaimed
hospitals. He is also an alumnus of the University of Delhi's
Faculty of Management Studies. He holds a certiļ¬cate from
the University of Berkeley-Haas in Disruptive Innovations
and has cleared Chartered Financial Analyst (CFA) Level-1,
which has been fundamental in amalgamating his clinical
and business backgrounds.
With his expertise in business strategy and planning for
growth and operational excellence, Dr Somesh delivers
exceptional top-line and bottom-line results while adhering
to strict standards and quality. His entire career has been
providing outstanding turn-around phases for organizations
with a vision to succeed in their space. Dr Somesh has
consistently played a signiļ¬cant role in achieving goals
with his strategic mindset.
As Chief Executive Oļ¬cer of ART Fertility Clinics for
India, Dr Somesh strongly believes in bringing global
standards of expert care and technology to the Indian
Healthcare space with assisted reproduction and
technology. ART Fertility Clinics is presently seven clinics
strong in India and has four clinics in the Middle East. Dr
Somesh is highly motivated to take the company to new
heights and expand geographically in the coming years.
AIM of ART
According to Dr Somesh, Artiļ¬cial intelligence (AI) is
gaining popularity because it has the potential to enhance
medical outcomes. IVF success will signiļ¬cantly rise
because of implementing AI within the fertility clinic.
This is because the current AI-based method of separating
good-quality embryos from defective ones is anticipated to
save embryologists time and eļ¬ort. In turn, this might
enhance the eļ¬ectiveness of assisted reproduction
technology (ART), the success rate of pregnancies, the
range of available treatments, and patient care for infertility.
AI also supports IVF treatment during the cryopreservation
or egg-freezing procedure, in addition to predicting the
viability of embryos.
"We at ART fertility clinics are at par with the modern
innovations in medicine. We have world-renowned
embryologists and IVF specialists working in cutting-edge
facilities to deploy the most advanced infrastructure and
technologies," reveals Dr Somesh.
He also adds that they have a very wide science and
innovation program wherein their clinicians use Artiļ¬cial
Intelligence to analyze medical data and deļ¬ne treatments
based on empirical ļ¬ndings. He reiterates, "We currently
have forty-one (41) areas of active investigative research
that utilize the latest NGS system.ā
Regarding challenges, Dr Somesh says that he believes
healthcare service providers need to learn and unlearn the
right and ideal medical practices that are suited and
customized to patients' needs. "Acceptance of issues is
imperative, and I encourage transparency, trust building,
and empathizing because these are the solution to every
challenge one faces." To ensure that these factors are
adhered to stringently, onboarding the right leadership and
talent can sometimes be challenging. However, if you
diligently perform this task, growth can never stop.
For budding entrepreneurs, "I advise emphasizing clinical
outcomes." To ensure the best outcome, you need to make
sure that you follow the right processes. Transparency is the
key to developing trust with your patients and improving
the results greatly. Invest time in creating the highest
standards for your team to adhere in maintaining patient
protocols and ethical standards.
For the future, "Our vision is to expand to 24-30 clinics in
India and adjoining countries within two years. Along with
our presence in the Middle East and Europe, we also
envision expanding in South-East Asia, such as Nepal,
Bangladesh, and Myanmar," he concludes.

23. Exploring
the Modern Technologies
that are Accelerating
theIVF
Treatments
in the Modern Healthcare
Sector
21 | May, 2023 | www.insightssuccess.in
n vitro fertilization (IVF) has revolutionized the ļ¬eld
Iof reproductive medicine, oļ¬ering hope to countless
individuals and couples struggling with infertility.
Over the years, advancements in technology have
signiļ¬cantly accelerated the eļ¬ectiveness and success rates
of IVF treatments. This article explores the modern
technologies that have propelled IVF treatments to new
heights in the healthcare sector. From genetic screening to
time-lapse imaging and cryopreservation techniques, these
innovations have revolutionized the way IVF is performed,
increasing the chances of successful pregnancies and
expanding the possibilities for building families.
Preimplantation Genetic Screening and Diagnosis
Preimplantation genetic screening (PGS) and
preimplantation genetic diagnosis (PGD) are modern
technologies that have transformed IVF treatments. PGS
involves the screening of embryos for chromosomal
abnormalities before implantation, increasing the chances
of selecting genetically normal embryos for transfer. This
technique is particularly beneļ¬cial for individuals or
couples with a history of recurrent miscarriages, advanced
maternal age, or genetic disorders.
PGD, on the other hand, focuses on detecting speciļ¬c
genetic disorders within embryos. It allows for the
identiļ¬cation of embryos carrying genetic abnormalities,
enabling the selection of unaļ¬ected embryos for transfer.
PGD has proven to be instrumental in reducing the risk of
passing on genetic conditions to oļ¬spring.
24. Time-Lapse Imaging
Time-lapse imaging technology has revolutionized embryo
monitoring during IVF treatments. Traditionally, embryos
were removed from the incubator for observation under a
microscope, which disrupted the stable environment
necessary for optimal embryo development. With time-
lapse imaging, embryos are placed in incubators equipped
with cameras that capture images at regular intervals. This
technology allows embryologists to monitor the
development of embryos in real-time without disturbing
their environment.
The time-lapse imaging provides a wealth of information on
embryo development, including crucial milestones, cell
division patterns, and morphological changes.
Embryologists can assess the quality and viability of
embryos more accurately, leading to improved embryo
selection and increased pregnancy rates.
Blastocyst Culture
Blastocyst culture involves growing embryos in the
laboratory for an extended period, typically up to the
blastocyst stage (around ļ¬ve to six days after fertilization).
This advanced technique allows embryologists to select the
most viable embryos for transfer, as embryos that reach the
blastocyst stage have a higher chance of implantation and
pregnancy success.
This methodology oļ¬ers several beneļ¬ts, such as improved
embryo selection, higher pregnancy rates, and reduced risk
of multiple pregnancies. By allowing embryos to develop
further before transfer, fertility specialists can choose the
embryos with the greatest potential for implantation,
increasing the chances of successful pregnancies.
Cryopreservation Techniques
Cryopreservation techniques have revolutionized the ļ¬eld
of IVF by enabling the freezing and storage of embryos,
eggs (oocytes), and sperm. Cryopreservation oļ¬ers
individuals and couples the ļ¬exibility to preserve their
fertility and use their reproductive cells at a later time.
Embryo cryopreservation involves freezing embryos not
transferred during a fresh IVF cycle for future use. This
allows individuals or couples to undergo multiple transfer
attempts using their cryopreserved embryos without the
need for additional stimulation and egg retrieval
procedures.
Egg freezing, or oocyte cryopreservation, is a technique that
allows women to preserve their eggs for future use. It is
particularly beneļ¬cial for those who want to delay
childbearing due to personal or medical reasons.
Cryopreserved eggs can be thawed, fertilized with sperm,
and transferred as embryos when the individual is ready to
conceive.
Sperm cryopreservation is commonly used by individuals
facing cancer treatments, vasectomy, or other circumstances
that may aļ¬ect their fertility. Freezing and storing sperm
allows individuals to preserve their reproductive cells
before undergoing medical treatments or procedures that
may compromise their fertility.
Assisted Hatching
Assisted hatching is a technique used to enhance the
chances of embryo implantation during IVF treatments. It
involves creating a small hole or thinning the outer shell
(zona pellucida) of the embryo before transfer. Assisted
hatching is beneļ¬cial for individuals or couples with
previous failed IVF cycles or embryos with a thick zona
pellucida.
By facilitating the hatching process, assisted hatching
increases the likelihood of successful embryo implantation
in the uterus. This technique is especially helpful for older
women, individuals with poor embryo quality, or those who
have experienced implantation failure in previous IVF
attempts.
Modern technologies have propelled IVF treatments to new
heights, oļ¬ering hope and improved success rates for
individuals and couples struggling with infertility.
Preimplantation genetic screening, time-lapse imaging,
blastocyst culture, cryopreservation techniques, and assisted
hatching are just a few examples of the innovations that
have revolutionized the ļ¬eld of IVF. These advancements
have increased the accuracy of embryo selection, improved
pregnancy rates, and expanded the possibilities for
parenthood. As technology continues to evolve, IVF
treatments will continue to advance, providing new avenues
for achieving the dream of parenthood.

31. n recent years, modern in vitro
Ifertilization (IVF) and fertility
centres have revolutionized the
ļ¬eld of reproductive medicine, oļ¬ering
new hope to individuals and couples
struggling with infertility. These centres
provide comprehensive fertility
services, advanced technologies, and
personalized care to address a wide
range of fertility challenges. The
modern developments have
systematically identiļ¬ed the issues and
have bridged the same with right
solutions. Letās explore the role and
scope of modern IVF and fertility
centres in oļ¬ering new hope in
parenthood. By understanding their
advancements, techniques, and holistic
approach, individuals and couples can
make informed decisions and embark
on a journey towards fulļ¬lling their
dreams of parenthood.
Comprehensive Fertility Services
Modern IVF and fertility centres oļ¬er
comprehensive fertility services,
encompassing the diagnosis, treatment,
and management of various fertility
conditions. These centres have
multidisciplinary teams comprising
reproductive endocrinologists, fertility
specialists, embryologists, nurses, and
counsellors who work collaboratively
to provide holistic care.

32. The services provided by fertility centres include thorough
fertility evaluations, hormone testing, semen analysis, and
imaging studies to diagnose the underlying causes of
infertility. Once a diagnosis is established, the fertility
centre develops personalized treatment plans tailored to
individual needs.
Advanced Reproductive Technologies
Modern IVF and fertility clinics are at the forefront of
utilizing advanced reproductive technologies to overcome
infertility challenges. In vitro fertilization (IVF) is a widely
recognized technique oļ¬ered by these centres, involving the
fertilization of eggs and sperm in a laboratory setting before
transferring resulting embryos into the uterus. IVF can help
individuals and couples with various fertility issues,
including blocked fallopian tubes, male factor infertility,
advanced maternal age, and unexplained infertility.
Additionally, fertility centres employ advanced techniques
such as intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI), which
involves injecting a single sperm directly into an egg to
facilitate fertilization. Preimplantation genetic testing
(PGT) is another ground-breaking technology used by
fertility centers to screen embryos for genetic abnormalities,
thereby increasing the chances of a healthy pregnancy.
Egg and Sperm Donation Programs
IVF clinics often have well-established egg and sperm
donation programs. These programs provide options for
individuals or couples who require donated eggs or sperm
to achieve pregnancy. Fertility centres carefully screen and
select donors, ensuring the highest standards of quality and
ethical considerations.
Egg donation involves retrieving eggs from a donor,
fertilizing them with sperm in the laboratory, and
transferring resulting embryos into the recipient's uterus.
Sperm donation, on the other hand, provides viable sperm
from a donor for insemination or IVF.
Egg and sperm donation programs oļ¬ered by fertility
centers have expanded the possibilities for parenthood,
enabling individuals or couples with genetic or fertility-
related challenges to experience the joys of having a child.
Fertility Preservation
Todayās modern IVF and fertility centres also play a
signiļ¬cant role in fertility preservation. They oļ¬er options
for individuals who wish to preserve their fertility for future
use due to medical reasons, career choices, or personal
circumstances. Fertility preservation techniques include egg
freezing (oocyte cryopreservation) and sperm freezing
(sperm cryopreservation). These methods allow individuals
to preserve their reproductive cells at a younger age when
they are more viable and use them when they are ready to
start a family.
Fertility preservation is particularly relevant for individuals
undergoing cancer treatments, as chemotherapy or radiation
may aļ¬ect their fertility. By oļ¬ering fertility preservation
options, fertility centres provide hope and a sense of control
over future family-building options.
Emotional Support and Counselling
The fertility centres recognize the emotional challenges
associated with infertility. They emphasize the importance
of emotional support and counselling throughout the
fertility journey. Fertility specialists and support staļ¬
provide guidance, education, and a compassionate
environment to address the emotional and psychological
aspects of infertility. It includes detailed discussions with
the couple and individually where their concerns, stress,
diet, sleep, etc patterns can be understood and the right
guidance can be provided. It is very essential aspect that the
lifestyle of the couple needs to be aligned with the
treatment so that the treatment can be eļ¬ective with the
desired results.
Support groups, counselling sessions, and resources are
often available to individuals and couples to help them cope
with the emotional impact of fertility treatments. Emotional
support and counselling services oļ¬ered by fertility centres
not only alleviate stress and anxiety but also promote
overall well-being during the parenthood journey.
A New Hope
Modern IVF clinics have transformed the landscape of
reproductive medicine, oļ¬ering new hope to individuals
and couples aspiring to become parents. With their
comprehensive services, advanced reproductive
technologies, and emphasis on emotional support, these
centres provide a holistic approach to fertility care. By
comprehending the role and scope of modern IVF and
fertility centres, individuals and couples can make informed
decisions, access cutting-edge treatments, and embark on a
transformative journey towards fulļ¬lling their dreams of
parenthood.

34. long with the beneļ¬ts of the modern era, there are
Asome signiļ¬cant drawbacks. People ļ¬nd it diļ¬cult
to strike a work-life balance in their personal and
professional spheres to cope with the fast-paced, hectic
lifestyle demands.
Increasing stress, hypertension, and unhealthy habits such
as consumption of junk food, insuļ¬cient sleep, always
being on the go, and addiction to hazardous substances have
all taken a toll on some of the most important aspects of
peopleās lives. Fertility and parenthood are the most
aļ¬ected aspects for couples.
According to Embryonic Fertility and IVF Centreās
Founder and Chief Embryologist, Dr Nikhil Gosavi,
infertility is rising in many modern and traditional couples.
Revealing some statistics, Dr Nikhil says, āAbout 12% to
15% of couples are unable to conceive after trying for more
than a year. This is more prominent in couples waiting to
have children later in their lives. One in four couples in
developing countries is aļ¬ected by infertility. This has been
tracked to 48.5 million couples experiencing infertility
worldwide.ā
Dr Nikhil goes on to say that there is an urgent need for
caring, compassionate, trustworthy, professional, and
experienced Fertility solution providers who can give these
parenthood-seeking couples hope through completely safe,
reliable, scientiļ¬c, and technological methods.
āEmbryonic was founded to provide the best fertility
solutions in its state-of-the-art facility in Pune, and we have
been successfully providing result-oriented, reliable, and
transparent solutions and treatments to hundreds of couples
every year,ā explains Dr Nikhil, who is responsible for
ensuring that Embryonic Fertility and IVF Centre maintains
one of the highest pregnancy rates.
An Everlasting Foundation of Trust
Dr Nikhil began his career as an embryologist in 2010 after
ļ¬nishing his postgraduate studies. After ten years of
experience with a top IVF specialist in India, he decided to
open his own IVF clinic in 2020. The Embryonic Fertility
and IVF Centre was founded to provide advanced and
precise infertility treatment at a reasonable cost.
Embryonic Fertility initially provided embryology backup
to many IVF centers in Maharashtra before opening its
advanced fertility center in the heart of Pune. In India,
infertility rates have steadily increased, necessitating the
need for and subsequent expansion of IVF treatment
facilities. Embryonic Fertility Centre opened two branches
in Pune and Narayangaon to meet the demand for fertility
treatments.
An Aļ¬ordable Hope of Joy
According to Dr Nikhil, most couples do not pursue IVF
treatments due to the high cost of the procedure. Embryonic
Fertility and IVF Centre has designed its system to provide
free consultation, free Ultrasonographic evaluation, free
semen analysis, and free blood investigations to help
couples determine the root cause of their infertility.
āOnce they understand the problem, their acceptance of the
treatment grows. For this reason, we devised a concept to
treat patients at a low cost in a large volume, which
ultimately proved to be successful in achieving decent
pregnancy rates and IVF outcomes,ā Dr Nikhil explains.
A Compassionate Caring Team
He adds, āMy passion for spreading happiness to childless
couples motivated me to make my carrier in Infertility
Treatment. Iāve seen the lack of awareness regarding
Infertility Treatment and couples opting for unethical means

in the Indian scenario, which often leads to detrimental
consequences.ā And itās very important to stop such
malpractices, which can be achieved by creating awareness
and expectance for Fertility Treatment.
The Perfect Fertility Specialist
Dr Nikhil Gosavi is one of Indiaās most renowned experts
in the ļ¬eld of infertility treatment. He specializes in
advanced micromanipulation techniques such as
Trophectoderm Biopsy, Intra-Cytoplasmic Sperm Injection
(ICSI), Laser Assisted Hatching (LAH), Oocyte, Sperm,
and Embryo Cryopreservation, and Genetic studies.
He has successfully given treatment to over 12000 couples
and the joy of parenthood. Dr Nikhil has also taken the
initiative to oļ¬er free IVF treatments to ļ¬nancially
challenged couples and low-cost IVF treatments to over
300 infertile couples.
Tech-Empowered Treatments
Modern technological advancements have accelerated
medical research and treatmentās scope, accuracy, and
eļ¬ciency. Today, doctors and embryologists successfully
identify the causes of infertility and oļ¬er precise solutions
through speciļ¬c treatments that eļ¬ectively enable the
pregnancy process through various research methodologies.
Artiļ¬cial insemination of highly motile sperm in the uterine
cavity is known as Intra-Uterine Insemination (IUI).
Embryonic Fertility and IVF Centre has a cutting-edge
facility and a team of scientiļ¬cally sound and skilled
Andrologists, Fertility Specialists, and IVF nurses dedicated
to providing patients with world-class IUI treatment as well
as expert advice and guidance.
In-Vitro Fertilization (IVF) technology is available
through its cutting-edge facility, which includes a modular
IVF Laboratory and an OT. Enhanced with equipmentās
which can condition and circulate air free of microbes and
pollutants. As long as the air quality in IVF laboratories,
operating rooms, and clinical procedure rooms are good,
embryo quality, embryo survival and ultimately clinical
results of IVF treatment can be met.
ICSI (Intra-Cytoplasmic Sperm Injection), a technique
which has proven to be boon for male patients suļ¬ering
from Sever-Male Factor Infertility. This procedure diļ¬ers
from conventional IVF procedure as it is technically more
advanced; where in a single healthy normal sperm is
injected directly into the oolema (cytoplasm) of the oocyte
(egg). An inverted microscope supported with
micromanipulators & micro-injectors are utilized in this
procedure with 400X magniļ¬cation for better selection of
morphologically normal sperm and ultimately formation of
competent embryo to achieve healthy pregnancy.
In ICSI technique the sperm does not have to travel to the
egg or penetrate outer covering of the egg (oocyte). This
implies that it can help couples where the maleās sperm
cannot reach the egg or if able to reach but somehow cannot
fertilize egg.
At Embryonic Fertility and IVF Centre, we avail the
procedure of Intra-Cytoplasmic Sperm Injection (ICSI) for
patients suļ¬ering with extremely low sperm count i.e.
Oligozoospermia, poor sperm morphology i.e.
Teratozoospermia and Globozoospermia, poor sperm
motility i.e. Asthenozoospermia, issues like Erectile
Dysfuction, Retrograde ejaculation or Anejaculation,
patients with advanced maternal age as their oocyte has
thick Zonz Pellucida, infertility due to immunologic
reasons, Endometriosis Grade III & IV, male with ejacula-
tory disorder in case of obstructive Azoospermia and some
unexplained infertility reasons. Our fertility experts and
embryologists counsel and guide the patient to make the
right decision in their beneļ¬t and also lower the stress
associated with this fertility treatment procedure.
We at Embryonic Fertility & IVF Centre believe,
āMiracles do happenā¦ā¦ā¦Try not get discouraged and
most importantly, make sure youāre mentally prepared.ā

37. Intracytoplasmic Morphologically Selected Sperm
Injection (IMSI) and Physiologically Selected
Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection (PICSI)
Intra-Cytoplasmic Morphologically Selected Sperm
Injection (IMSI) is the procedure in which interference
contrast microscopy at high magniļ¬cation of 6000X is used
to observe for presence of nuclear vacuoles in sperm head
which is an indicator for increased level of DNA Fragmen-
tation in human spermatozoa/sperm. The sperm which is
morphological best then utilizes for the purpose of micro-
manipulation same as in ICSI procedure.
Physiologically Selected Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection
(PICS) is the procedure based on the fact the mature sperm
head has a speciļ¬c receptor that allow it to bind to
Hyaluronic Acid (HA), the main component of Oocyte
Cumulus Complex (OCC), this in contrast to immature
sperms do not have this ability to bind HA. It has been
scientiļ¬cally proved that, sperms that bind to HA have
completed the spermatogenetic process of remodeling the
plasmatic membrane, cytoplasmic extrusion and nuclear
maturity. This eventually results in low level of
aneuploidies and miscarriages. These sperms which are
bound to HA are then selected and utilized for the purpose
of micro-manipulation same as in ICSI procedure.
Frozen Embryo Transfer (FET) is a procedure where
vitriļ¬ed embryos from the previous fresh IVF cycle are
thawed and transferred back to the uterus. The embryolo-
gists freeze the embryos to reduce the risks of multiple
pregnancies by transferring not more than two embryos at
the same time.
Laser-Assisted Hatching (LAH) is the process based on
the presumption of creating artiļ¬cial openings (slits or
holes) in the zona pellucida (outer covering of embryo),
which aids in assisting the In-Vitro hatching process of
embryos. This technique has been shown to increase
implantation and pregnancy rates in patients with Advanced
Maternal Age, Recurrent Implantation Failure, and Frozen-
Thaw Embryo Transfers, as cryopreservation of embryos
may lead to the zona hardening that may compromise the
hatching and implantation process.
Blastocyst Embryo Transfer, also known as
Advanced/Extended Embryo Culture, extends the embryo
culture cycle of the fertilized embryos for ļ¬ve to six days in
the laboratory. The facility uses Trigas Bench Top Incuba-
tors to provide optimal culture conditions, similar to those
in the womb, for the embryos to grow to the Blastocyst
stage. āThis process allows us to select one or two healthy
and most competent embryos for transferring it into the
uterus and achieve better Implantation and pregnancy
rates,ā states Dr Nikhil.
Scaling New Horizons
In his advice to aspiring professionals on laying the
groundwork, Dr. Nikhil emphasizes the importance of
understanding couples, identifying the true causes of
infertility, and oļ¬ering genuine solutions. He also advises
young professionals to learn the process and gain conļ¬-
dence thoroughly. He believes that clear and open counsel-
ing is critical. Second, honesty and commitment are
essential components of success.
The organization is well-structured, with meticulous
planning and disciplined procedures to establish a trusted
brand in the industry. Embryonic Fertility and IVF Centre is
ready to provide the most advanced services and the best
value for money. The facility hopes to expand even further
with modern scientiļ¬c advancements in other regions.
