Vitrification is an advanced ultra-rapid freezing technique that protects the oocyte from ice-crystal damage.

This process preserves the cell’s structure and function far better than older slow-freezing methods — resulting in over 90% oocyte survival after thawing.

How does sport affect fertility?

Regular physical activity plays an important role in reproductive health for both women and men. But like everything in medicine, balance is key.

Moderate exercise can improve fertility.
Physical activity helps regulate hormones, improve blood circulation, reduce stress levels and maintain a healthy body weight — all essential factors for a healthy reproductive system. For women, regular workouts can support ovulation and improve menstrual cycle regularity. For men, exercise may enhance s***m quality and testosterone levels.

However, excessive training can have the opposite effect.
Intense daily workouts, overtraining, or extremely low body fat can disrupt hormonal balance. In women, this may lead to irregular cycles or even temporary loss of ovulation. In men, chronic overtraining can reduce testosterone and negatively impact s***m parameters.

What is the optimal balance?
Fertility specialists usually recommend:
• 3–5 moderate workouts per week
• Strength + light cardio combination
• Maintaining a healthy BMI
• Avoiding extreme diets and overtraining

Activities such as walking, swimming, yoga, pilates, and functional training support reproductive health without stressing the body.

Remember: your body needs energy not only for training, but also for reproduction.
A balanced lifestyle, proper nutrition, and moderate exercise create the best conditions for healthy fertility.

S***m cryopreservation is a way to preserve fertility when natural conception is postponed or temporarily impossible.
Thawing of cryopreserved semen is the next important step that brings a couple closer to pregnancy.

When is frozen semen used?
• before medical treatments (oncology, surgeries, therapies that may affect fertility)
• when a partner cannot be present on the day of IVF or insemination
• in cases of difficulty obtaining a sample on the day of egg retrieval
• for long-term fertility preservation and future family planning

How does the thawing process work?
The procedure takes place in the laboratory under the supervision of experienced embryologists.
The sample is thawed according to specific protocols designed to preserve the highest possible viability and function of s***m cells.

After thawing:
• s***m motility and quality are assessed
• the sample is carefully prepared for the procedure (insemination or IVF/ICSI)
• embryologists select the best s***m cells for fertilization

Important to know:
cryopreservation and thawing are safe and well-established technologies in modern reproductive medicine. They help preserve the chance of parenthood even in challenging life circumstances.

Hormonal contraception and fertility — let’s clear the myths.

Can hormonal contraceptives make you infertile?
No. Hormonal birth control is a safe and temporary way to prevent pregnancy and one of the most misunderstood topics in women’s health.

In this video, our specialist explains how hormonal methods work: by inhibiting ovulation or thickening cervical mucus to prevent fertilization. Pills, patches, injections, and hormonal IUDs do not damage your fertility.

What happens after you stop using them?
For most women, the menstrual cycle returns to normal within a few weeks to a few months. A short delay can happen, but it does not mean infertility.

If pregnancy doesn’t occur after stopping contraception, it’s important to consult a healthcare professional to check for other possible causes.

Hormonal contraception is temporary, safe, and does not affect your future fertility. Your body recovers quickly once you stop using it.

Every year, millions of people around the world are diagnosed with cancer.
Behind every number is not a statistic —
but a person, a family, a life that changes in an instant.

Cancer does not choose the right time.
It does not care about age, plans, or strength.
It often comes quietly —
which is why awareness and early detection are so important.

Today, medicine knows more than ever before.
Many cancers, when detected early,
can be treated successfully.
Millions of people around the world live after cancer —
they work, love, create families, and continue to dream.

This day is about support.
For those going through treatment.
For those waiting for answers.
For those standing beside someone they love.

It is about the right to feel afraid —
and the right not to face that fear alone.

If you are reading this and it feels heavy,
please remember: you are not alone.
Hope exists.
Support matters.
Life goes on.

We stand with you.
Today and every day.

Their journey to parenthood began with exhaustion.

In 2019, after meeting with numerous surrogacy agencies in Kyiv, they were emotionally drained and close to giving up. What should have been a hopeful process felt overwhelming, confusing, and heavy with uncertainty.

IVMed was the final agency they visited — and from the very first meeting, they knew this experience would be different.

The team’s professionalism, transparency, and genuine compassion immediately set IVMed apart. For the first time in a long while, they felt calm and confident. Trust replaced anxiety, and a process that once felt chaotic began to feel safe and human.

In 2020, their first journey with IVMed led to the birth of their daughter, Delilah-Grace — a moment that turned years of hope into reality.

Five years later, they returned to IVMed with certainty and gratitude. In January 2026, they welcomed their second daughter, Devina-Mae, completing their family.

Across both journeys, IVMed remained consistent, attentive, and deeply respectful of everyone involved. The team supported them through every step with integrity, care, and unwavering dedication.

Today, they look back with profound gratitude for the role IVMed played in building their family. Without hesitation, they recommend IVMed to anyone considering surrogacy.

Because sometimes, what matters most is not only the destination —
but knowing you are supported, understood, and cared for every step of the way.

The role of motherhood is one of the deepest in a woman’s life.

Motherhood is not only about giving birth.
It is about connection, care, emotional maturity, and a sense of meaning that, for many women, is deeply personal and significant.

For some, becoming a mother is a lifelong dream.
For others, it is a decision that comes with time.
And for some, it is a journey that requires support, knowledge, and medical care.

At IVMED, we deeply respect every woman’s choice.
At the same time, we believe that motherhood is a value that deserves thoughtful care, awareness, and the opportunity to be realized when a woman feels ready — physically, emotionally, and mentally.

Modern reproductive medicine is not about pressure.
It exists to support, inform, and offer options.

Motherhood is a journey.
And every woman has the right to walk this path at her own pace, with trust in herself and the support of professionals 🤍
