Overview
Around 8% to 13% of couples worldwide suffer from infertility. However, this difficulty has been greatly reduced by recent medical advancements, particularly in infertility therapy. With numerous discoveries and advancements, In vitro fertilization is an option for them to have a baby. Among the new modules, stem cell IVF has caught the globe by storm. As a result, it seems to be much more successful than the conventional method.
Everything You Need To Know About Stem Cell in IVF
What Is It?
Stem cells are seen as the basic building blocks of the human body. When certain conditions are met, they may produce more useful cells. When a stem cell produces additional cells, they are referred to as “daughter cells.”
In most circumstances, the daughter cells develop into specialized cells that perform a specific task. However, on rare occasions, these cells may also give rise to another kind of stem cell. In this way, they will create a new sort of cell of their own own.
The ability of stem cells to generate a new kind of cell has already been discussed. Because of this, physicians now consider them an effective alternative treatment for infertile patients. However, how would this benefit them?
In the first place, these cells have a greater capacity for differentiation. In the laboratory, they may be turned into embryonic stem cells, ovaries, or endometrial or mesenchymal stem cells.
Oocytes and spermatozoa may be generated in vitro from these cells, which can then be employed therapeutically. The process, however, is still in its infancy. As a result, the experts will have to do even more investigation to discover concrete evidence of the above.
Types
Listed below are the types of stem cells.
- Embryonic stem cells
The inner cell mass of the blastocyst, a hollow ball of cells that develops three to five days after a sperm fertilizes an egg cell, is the source of embryonic stem cells. The dot above “i” is the size of a human blastocyst.
If everything goes according to plan, all tissues and organs will be formed by cells inside your inner cell mass. As a result, embryonic stem cells may be extracted from the inner cell mass and grown under certain laboratory settings to preserve their embryonic stem cell capabilities.
- Tissue-specific stem cells
Compared to embryonic stem cells, tissue-specific stem cells (also known as somatic or adult stem cells) are far more specialized. A typical stem cell may produce a wide range of cell types for the tissue or organ it lives in.
- Induced pluripotent stem cells
IPS cells are cells that have been created in the lab by transforming tissue-specific cells, such as skin cells, into cells that act like an embryonic stem cells. Scientists employ IPS cells to study normal development and disease progression and develop and test novel medications and cures. IPS cells are crucial instruments for this research.
Procedure
Following are the procedures:
- Stem Cell Treatment for Male Infertility: Male infertility stem cell therapy is based on the spermatogenesis process. The procedure aids in the development of haploid spermatozoa from germ cells to the tubules of the testis. It starts with the mitotic division of stem cells, which helps the testes produce more sperm cells than normal. The human sperm count grows significantly as a result of this method. As a result, the impact of infertility diminishes with time. The pair may begin conceiving within the next several years if everything goes well.
- Stem Cell Treatment for Female Infertility: For women who cannot conceive, stem cell treatment may be a life-changing option. It may improve oocyte and ovarian cell production. As a result, their fertility will soar to an all-time high. Aside from repairing tissues in the uterus, it may also encourage healthy cell production. In this manner, women may overcome their infertility and prepare the route to motherhood for their future children.
Why Is It Needed?
Using stem cells to treat blood cancer is the primary use of this treatment. However, it is increasingly being used by physicians to treat cardiovascular disorders. It aids in the removal of scar tissue and the restoration of heart health. Also, it has the potential to speed up the healing process after surgical procedures.
This method may speed up IVF therapy by a considerable margin. In addition, it may help the male population by mending the tissues that cause sperm production difficulties. On the other hand, it may help the female uterus be healthier and more effective.
Conclusion
All of your body’s organs and tissues are built on stem cells. Different parts of the body at different points in your lives produce various kinds of stem cells. In addition to embryonic stem cells, there are numerous kinds of tissue-specific (adult) stem cells that arise throughout fetal development and stay in your bodies throughout your lives.

What Patient has to say about us
People heavily rely on reviews from other patients when choosing a healthcare provider
Our Patients Many many happy returns of the day......... The best doctor in the world My mother was suffering from severe pain in both knees and spine. Dr. Aashish arbat sir has operated today after 15days she is doing every thing thank you Dr aashish arbat sir and team Especially the major support was from Dr Ram sir from admission to dischatge and follow ups and taken care very nicely thanku Dr. Ram sir Our Patients After enduring knee pain for the past decade, my mother sought advice from various doctors in Nagpur, Nashik, and Pune. They all recommended knee replacement surgery, but it was only when we discovered Dr. Aashish Arbat and the option of robotics surgery that we made the decision to proceed. The surgery took place on June 23, 2023, and it turned out to be an incredible experience. To our astonishment, on the morning of June 24, my mother was able to stand on her own legs and even take a few steps. This remarkable progress was made possible due to the advanced assistance of robotics arm and Artificial Intelligence. Dr. Aashish Arbat is an exceptional and highly experienced surgeon, and we are immensely grateful for his expertise. We also extend our appreciation to his colleagues, Dr. Sharma and Dr. Ram, for their excellent skills and compassionate nature. Our heartfelt thanks go out to the entire team for enabling my mother to live a pain-free life Our Patients My mother got her both robotic knee replacement from sir on Oct 2021. The team and sir have made the complete process seamless. Especially my mother was very comfortable post her surgery. Thank you Dr Arbat and team. Our Patients Our Patients Our Patients Hello. My wife has severe arthritis in her body knees since 2017. We communicated many doctors but she was not happy. We visited Dr arbat for same issue and he came up with robotic knee replacement solution which suited her accurately and she is walking 5-6km daily without hesitation and living comfortably. Thanks Dr. Aashish Arbat and his new technology.Chhaya Kate
