Infertility transplant in Iran; starting the path to childbearing with modern knowledge and confidence
- Infertility transplantation is one of the most advanced assisted reproductive techniques (ART) that allows couples facing severe infertility to have children. These treatments include the use of donated gametes (eggs or sperm), donated embryos, or surrogacy, and are performed in Iran under the supervision of fertility specialists, Sharia, and legal experts.
When is infertility transplantation recommended?
Doctors usually recommend this procedure when: Ovarian reserve is severely reduced or ovulation is absent, sperm is of insufficient quality or quantity, the mother’s uterus has been removed for congenital or surgical reasons, the risk of transmitting genetic diseases is high, multiple failed IVF attempts with the person’s own gametes.
Main methods of infertility treatment in Iran
First case: egg donation (Egg Donation):
Eggs are taken from a young, healthy woman, fertilized with her husband’s sperm, and placed in the uterus of the recipient mother.
Second case: Sperm donation Sperm Donation: Sperm is obtained from reputable banks and screened volunteers and combined with the partner’s egg.
Case Three: Embryo Donation Embryo Donation: The embryo from the donor couple is transferred to the recipient woman, suitable for when both couples are infertile.
Case 4: Surrogate uterus (Surrogacy):
The embryo of an infertile couple grows in the womb of a volunteer woman (surrogate womb), especially for women who do not have a uterus or have severe uterine problems.
Important scientific points in infertility treatment
Recent advances have shown that using younger gametes statistically increases the chances of pregnancy by fifty to sixty percent.
PGT-A (preimplantation genetic screening) can select healthy embryos without chromosomal abnormalities and reduce the risk of miscarriage.
Uterine surrogacy in Iran is only performed under special circumstances and after approval by the medical ethics committee and with official consent.
Requirements for infertility transplant
Age: Women receiving eggs or embryos should preferably be under fifty years of age.
General health: No uncontrolled chronic diseases such as diabetes, high blood pressure, or heart failure
Mental health: Psychological assessment before treatment, especially in surrogacy
Financial capacity and legal awareness: Why infertility treatment requires long-term decision-making
Hospitalization, recovery, and care
Embryo transfer is usually performed on an outpatient basis without the need for hospitalization. Relative rest for up to forty-eight hours and the use of progesterone and hormonal medications to aid implantation are required. A blood test (hCG) is usually performed twelve to fourteen days later to diagnose pregnancy. In the event of pregnancy, monthly follow-up and psychological counseling are recommended.
Advantages and disadvantages of infertility transplant
Advantages: Highest chance of having children for infertile couples, use of healthy and screened gametes, possibility of experiencing pregnancy even without having a normal egg or uterus, greater control over the fetus in terms of genetic health.
Disadvantages: Psychological and emotional burden in the treatment process for some families, legal and ethical challenges in countries without specific laws, dependence on specialized teams, and cost in Western countries (which is more affordable in Iran).
