Frequently Asked Questions – IVF Angels Goa, Fertility Clinic in Mapusa

Got questions about IVF or fertility treatments in Goa? You’re not alone. At IVF Angels, we’ve compiled answers to the most common queries patients have — from understanding IVF success rates and costs, to knowing when to consult a fertility specialist. Whether you’re exploring IUI, IVF, or fertility preservation, this FAQ page is your trusted resource. Updated regularly with insights from our experts at IVF Angels Goa, one of the most trusted fertility clinics in Mapusa.

Getting Started with Fertility & IVF

For those just beginning their fertility journey or unsure if they need treatment.

The first and most important step is getting a comprehensive fertility evaluation. At IVF Angels Goa, we begin with detailed consultations, hormone testing, ultrasound scans, and semen analysis to pinpoint the root cause before suggesting treatment options.
If you’re under 35 and have been trying to conceive for over a year, or over 35 and trying for 6 months without success, it’s time to consult a fertility specialist. Early evaluation helps improve success rates and avoid unnecessary delays.
IVF is often recommended in cases such as:

Blocked or damaged fallopian tubes
Male factor infertility (low sperm count/quality)

Ovulation disorders or irregular cycles

Endometriosis

Unexplained infertility

Genetic conditions requiring embryo screening

Advanced maternal age (typically over 35)
At IVF Angels Goa, we guide you through a complete diagnosis before suggesting IVF or any fertility treatment.
Yes. IVF after 35 is often recommended, as fertility begins to decline more sharply with age. With proper ovarian stimulation and careful embryo selection, IVF can significantly improve pregnancy chances for women in this age group. You can also explore our detailed guide on IVF success after 35 with expert tips and a real success story from IVF Angels Goa.
Unexplained infertility is when standard tests show no identifiable cause, yet conception doesn’t occur. It affects around 10–20% of couples. In such cases, IVF can be an effective next step after other treatments like ovulation induction or IUI.
Causes of Infertility – Understanding the Factors Behind Delayed Conception

Infertility can affect both men and women and often results from a combination of factors. At IVF Angels Goa, we take a compassionate, scientific approach to uncovering the root causes behind your fertility struggles.

Some of the common causes of infertility we encounter include:

Ovulation Disorders: Irregular or absent ovulation, often linked to hormonal imbalances or conditions like PCOS (Polycystic Ovary Syndrome), can disrupt the menstrual cycle.

Uterine and Fallopian Tube Issues: Blockages, scarring, or structural abnormalities can prevent fertilization or implantation.

Sperm Abnormalities: Low sperm count, poor motility, or abnormal morphology may hinder the fertilization process.

Endometriosis: This condition can cause inflammation and tissue buildup that affects egg quality and tubal function.

Age-Related Fertility Decline: Fertility naturally decreases with age—especially after 35 in women—affecting both egg quality and quantity.

Lifestyle Factors: Smoking, excessive alcohol, obesity, poor nutrition, and high stress levels can negatively influence fertility in both partners.

Unexplained Infertility: In some cases, no clear cause is found despite thorough testing, but this doesn’t mean treatment won’t be effective.

At IVF Angels Goa, located near St. Britto’s High School in Mapusa, we offer comprehensive fertility assessments, including hormone profiling, ultrasound scans, semen analysis, and advanced diagnostics. Our expert team, led by IVF Specialist Dr. Milind Colvalcar, is dedicated to identifying the root causes of infertility so we can tailor the most effective, minimally invasive treatment plan for you.

If you’re struggling to conceive, you’re not alone — and we’re here to help you take the next step with clarity, care, and confidence.
Chronic stress may interfere with ovulation and sperm production. While it’s rarely the sole cause of infertility, managing stress through counseling, lifestyle changes, or support groups can improve outcomes—especially during IVF.
Absolutely. Factors such as maintaining a healthy weight, eating a balanced diet, managing stress, avoiding alcohol and tobacco, and adhering to your treatment schedule can significantly boost IVF outcomes. At IVF Angels Goa, we guide you through holistic steps to enhance your fertility.

Understanding IVF Basics

Covers how IVF works, when it’s recommended, and what’s involved in the process.

IUI (Intrauterine Insemination) involves placing sperm directly into the uterus during ovulation. IVF (In Vitro Fertilization) involves fertilizing an egg outside the body and transferring the resulting embryo into the uterus. IVF is more advanced and is used when IUI or simpler treatments don’t work.
No treatment can offer a 100% guarantee. IVF significantly improves chances, but success depends on age, egg and sperm quality, overall health, and previous fertility history. At IVF Angels Goa, we provide realistic expectations and a tailored treatment plan based on your unique profile.
Yes. If one or both partners are carriers of a genetic disorder, Preimplantation Genetic Testing (PGT) during IVF allows us to screen embryos for inherited conditions. Only healthy embryos are selected for transfer, reducing the risk of passing on genetic issues.
IVF Angels Goa boasts a high success rate, with over 1,200 IVF success stories. For more details, visit our success stories page.

IVF success rates vary with age, as fertility naturally declines over time. Here’s a typical range based on local Goa clinics:

Age Group Typical IVF Success Rate (per cycle) – Goa*
Under 3555–60%
35–37~43%
38–40~37%
41+~28%

*Indicative; actual success depends on individual health, fertility factors, and clinic protocols.

IVF Process & Timeline

For users concerned about affordability, outcomes, and what affects IVF results.

During your first consultation, Dr. Colvalcar will assess your medical history, discuss your fertility concerns, and recommend appropriate tests or treatments. For a detailed overview, visit our first fertility consultation guide.
Preparing for an IVF cycle involves understanding the process, undergoing necessary tests, and following lifestyle recommendations. Our IVF process step-by-step guide provides detailed information to help you prepare.
A full IVF cycle typically takes around 4 to 6 weeks, depending on your specific protocol and health factors. This includes initial hormone stimulation, egg retrieval, fertilization, embryo development, and finally, embryo transfer. At IVF Angels Goa, we follow a step-by-step process tailored to your body, with close monitoring to ensure the best results at every stage.
The number of embryos transferred depends on your age, fertility history, and embryo quality. At IVF Angels Goa, we typically recommend single embryo transfer (SET) for women under 35 to reduce the risk of multiple pregnancies. In some cases, especially for women over 35 or with previous failed attempts, two embryos may be transferred. Your doctor will guide you on the safest and most effective option.
After embryo transfer, the embryo hopefully implants in the uterine lining. You’ll be advised to rest for a short period at the clinic and continue with hormonal support medications as prescribed. Light activity is generally safe, but we recommend avoiding intense exercise, alcohol, and stress. A pregnancy test is usually done 10–14 days later to confirm the outcome. Our team at IVF Angels Goa provides ongoing support during this anxious waiting period.
Success in IVF varies by individual. While many patients conceive in the first or second cycle, others may need three or more cycles. Factors like age, egg quality, sperm parameters, and uterine health influence your success rate. At IVF Angels Goa, we focus on optimizing every cycle and offer personalized strategies to improve your chances with each attempt.
