Fertility Treatments in Israel

 The fertility rates in Israel are 75% higher than the average of those in the world's 42 developed countries. This is because family and parenthood are an essential foundation of Israel’s tradition and culture. The country's cultural mores promote the notion of being fruitful and multiplying.

The procedures

Israel is a pioneer in medical and natural fertility treatments and the country's esteemed clinics care to accompany you on this journey into parenthood. The procedures offered for such conditions include:

• IVF – In Vitro Fertilization is the process by which egg cells are fertilized by sperm outside the body. Israel performs the most (IVF) In Vitro Fertilization procedures per capita the world over. Today, approximately 5% of the births in Israel are a result of IVF, compared to 1% in England.
• IUI – Intra uterine insemination is a procedure that involves placing sperm inside a woman's uterus to facilitate fertilization. The sperm is injected directly to the woman's uterus in order to shorten the path to the eggs and ease the fertilization process.
• Sperm Washing – is a process in which individual sperms are separated from the seminal fluid. The sperms are then used in IVF or IUI.
• ICSI – Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection is an In Vitro Fertilization process by which a single sperm is injected directly into an egg. This procedure is done mainly in cases of low sperm count. However, an Israeli clinic was the first in achieving pregnancy even in a case in which no sperm was released through sperm cells taken from the testicle during a biopsy.
• IMSI – Intracytoplasmatic Morphology Selected Sperm Injection is an ICSI process in which more attention is paid to the quality of the sperm injected into the egg.
• PGD or PIGD – Pre-implantation genetic diagnosis is a procedure performed on embryos prior to implantation, sometimes even on oocytes prior to fertilization.
• Vasectomy Reversal is a surgical procedure reconnecting the male reproductive tract.
• Cytoplasmic Transfer is a fertility technique in which the cytoplasm from a donor egg is injected into an egg with compromised mitochondria. That egg is then fertilized with sperm and placed in a womb, usually that of the woman who provided the recipient egg and nuclear DNA.

Israel also assists parents with hereditary diseases to deliver healthy babies without transmitting these diseases.

Treatments in Israel

We know that pregnancy is always based on probability. Couples attempting pregnancy in their 20s have about a 25% chance of conceiving in any given month and couples in their 30s have about a 15% chance per month. If pregnancy has not occurred within a year or two, it is likely that the monthly chance of pregnancy is less than 5% and tests are recommended.

Israeli medical centers perform an extensive array of women and men's fertility-related examinations, treatments and surgeries. This is combined with applied science excellence seen in developments like laser techniques to improve in-vitro fertilization success rates.

Opting for fertility treatments in Israel, means receiving the most effective, skillful and fruitful treatments at the most competitive global costs. We believe that childbirth should be granted to all, regardless of financial means. Fertility treatments are more cost-effective than most countries including Europe and the United States and IVF treatments in Israel are 68%-70% cheaper than in the US.

The advent of superior reproductive technologies in Israel combined with the deep dedication to the gift of life, and the simple, successful, cost-effective benefits make Israel the prime fertility treatment choice.
