What is Cytoplasmic IVF?
Cytoplasmic transfer is one of the latest innovations in IVF treatment. Cytoplasmic transfer in itself is not a treatment method, but rather is a procedure that is used in combination with IVF/ICSI treatment. The main purpose of cytoplasmic transfer is to help older women who are likely to suffer from infertility due to deficient or damaged mitochondria, contained within an eggs cytoplasm. Mitochondria found in the egg’s cytoplasm are responsible for providing the necessary energy for cell growth and effective cell division. Deficient mitochondria, therefore, will be unable to perform its duties and will
not allow for successful cell growth and/or cell division. This can lead to recurrent implantation failures and high levels of embryo fragmentation, which are causes of poor embryo quality and poor embryo development, and therefore, an IVF failure.
Am I suitable for Cytoplasmic IVF ?
Older women in more advanced fertility age brackets are the most suitable candidates for cytoplasmic IVF treatment along with women who have known mitochondrial defects. A woman should have some ovarian function in order to qualify for this treatment, meaning, her AMH should be higher than 0.3 ng/ml.
Required testing for Cytoplasmic IVF treatment?
Female patient is required to undergo hormone testing and an ultrasound scan as explained in our “Infertility Testing” section. The male patient is required to undergo a semen analysis. Depending on your unique condition and previous history of infertility, additional testing may be required.
What is the cost of Cytoplasmic IVF?

What to expect from Cytoplasmic IVF
While Cytoplasmic IVF transfer is a medical breakthrough in assisted reproductive technologies, it does come with its limitations. In order for cytoplasmic transfer to work, the female patient undergoing treatment must have a certain level of ovarian activity. If the ovarian reserves have been highly depleted and we will not be able to obtain at least 2/3 oocytes at the end of an ovarian stimulation protocol, then cytoplasmic IVF transfer is not likely to work. Cytoplasmic IVF transfer is a treatment option for patients who still produce eggs as a response to ovarian stimulation, but whose eggs fail to develop into viable embryos or fail to generate a pregnancy.
At our Cyprus IVF Centre, we guarantee high quality treatment with maximum service quality standards at low cost. Our reduced costs are a direct result of the volume of patients we serve and the high-tech equipment we use which substantially reduce human mistakes and allow us to be cost efficient.
Given that majority of our patients travel from abroad for treatment in our Cyprus IVF Centre, we design our treatment programs so that some of the preliminary work can be carried out locally in your own country prior to your arrival in Cyprus so that we can minimise your length of stay down to 5/6 days. For patients who do not have time limitations, we can offer full treatment in Cyprus from start to finish with every aspect of treatment included as a package. This requires a stay of 18 days starting from day 1 of your menstrual period.
- Preliminary TestingPersonalised Treatment01You will undertake local screening prior to your arrival in Cyprus. Based on your initial test results, we will be able to formulate your treatment.
