GFC Ubon Ratchathani — Fertility Clinic IVF/ICSI

Select a service below for an overview, the key steps, and what to know before consulting our GFC Ubon Ratchathani team.

IVF / ICSI

IVF / ICSI Treatment

IVF and ICSI are assisted reproductive technologies where eggs and sperm are combined in the laboratory, and the resulting embryo is cultured before being transferred into the uterus.

With IVF, sperm are left to fertilize the egg naturally in a culture dish. With ICSI, a single sperm is injected directly into the egg using a fine needle under a microscope.

Suitable whenBlocked fallopian tubes, endometriosis, ovulation problems, failed IUI, or unexplained infertility

Estimated timelineOne cycle takes about 3–6 weeks, depending on the stimulation protocol, embryo freezing, and PGT-A testing

Good to know: success rates depend on age, egg and sperm quality, embryo development, uterine health, and prior treatment history.

Main steps

Assessment and individualized protocol planning
Ovarian stimulation monitored by ultrasound
Egg retrieval, sperm preparation, and fertilization via IVF or ICSI
Embryo culture with planning for fresh transfer, freezing, or genetic testing
Embryo transfer followed by a pregnancy test about 10–14 days later

Risks to be aware of

Temporary bloating, cramping, or discomfort
Ovarian hyperstimulation, bleeding, or infection from egg retrieval
Ectopic pregnancy, miscarriage, or multiple pregnancy

IUI

Intrauterine Insemination (IUI)

IUI involves placing specially prepared and washed sperm directly into the uterus during the most fertile window, increasing the chance of sperm meeting the egg and fertilizing naturally inside the body.

Starting price15,000 THB per cycle

Procedure timeAbout 5–10 minutes; you can resume normal activities the same day

Key difference: with IUI, fertilization happens inside the body — not in the lab as with IVF/ICSI.

Who IUI suits

Unexplained infertility after a full assessment
Mild male-factor issues or ejaculation problems
At least one open fallopian tube
Sperm quality within an adequate range after preparation

Treatment steps

Assess both partners and choose a natural or stimulated cycle
Monitor follicle growth and time ovulation
Prepare sperm and inseminate into the uterus
Pregnancy test about 14 days after insemination

Assessment

Fertility Assessment

A fertility assessment starts with reviewing both partners’ history to identify factors that need testing or treatment first, using real data to choose the right approach for each couple.

The doctor will consider age, how long you’ve been trying, menstrual cycle, pregnancy or miscarriage history, existing conditions, medications, surgical history, and your family goals together.

For womenPelvic ultrasound, AMH, AFC, hormones as indicated, and evaluation of the fallopian tubes

For menSemen analysis and further testing as indicated

What to prepare

Start dates of your last 3–6 menstrual cycles
How long you have been trying to conceive
List of medications, conditions, and surgical history
Previous test results from other facilities with dates and units

What you’ll get

Results explained in context — no single test defines your overall chances
A plan for next steps, e.g. timed intercourse, IUI, IVF/ICSI, or egg freezing

Egg Freezing

Egg freezing involves stimulating the ovaries, retrieving mature eggs, and freezing them for future use — a fertility-preserving option for later in life.

Earlier assessment and freezing generally means more eggs of better quality, but there’s no single ideal age for everyone — it should be evaluated individually.

Stimulation periodTypically about 8–14 days, with follicle monitoring by ultrasound and hormone levels

Freezing methodVitrification is used for mature, good-quality eggs

Who should consider it

Not ready to have children now but want to keep options open
Risk of declining ovarian reserve
About to undergo treatment that may affect the ovaries
Planning a future sperm source

When eggs are used later

Thawing and ICSI
Embryo culture
Embryo transfer into the uterus

FET

Frozen Embryo Transfer (FET)

FET involves thawing embryos frozen from a previous IVF/ICSI cycle, assessing their survival, and transferring them into the uterus.

Suitable whenYou have remaining frozen embryos, are awaiting PGT-A results, or are deferring a fresh transfer from the retrieval cycle

After transferBeta-hCG testing about 10–14 days later, with continued medication as prescribed

Recovery after transfer: extended bed rest isn’t necessary — light daily activity is fine per your doctor’s advice.

Main steps

Pre-cycle assessment and embryo report review
Choosing an endometrial preparation method
Scheduling the thaw and transfer date
Thawing, embryo assessment, and transfer into the uterus

Factors affecting success

Age at egg retrieval, embryo stage and quality
PGT-A results if tested
Endometrial readiness and progesterone levels

Antenatal Care

Antenatal care means monitoring the health of both mother and baby from the start of pregnancy through delivery, including tracking fetal development and providing accurate health guidance throughout.

Antenatal visits help confirm the pregnancy is progressing normally, reduce the risk of complications, and ensure the baby is growing well.

When to startIdeally at 4–8 weeks of pregnancy, and no later than 12 weeks

First visitUrine test, weight and blood pressure check, blood tests, and abdominal ultrasound

Care by trimester

1st trimester: confirm pregnancy, screen for infections, and date the pregnancy
2nd trimester: diabetes screening, amniocentesis if indicated, and fetal growth monitoring
3rd trimester: fetal movement counting, vaccinations, repeat blood tests, and fetal health assessment

Key benefits

Supports the mother’s physical and emotional wellbeing
Helps prevent and reduce pregnancy-related risks
Tracks the baby’s development at every stage

TVS Gynecology

Transvaginal Ultrasound (TVS)

Transvaginal Ultrasound (TVS) examines the pelvic organs — especially the uterus and ovaries — via the vaginal canal, giving a clearer image than an abdominal ultrasound.

It helps diagnose abnormalities of the uterus, uterine cavity, and ovaries, playing a role in both diagnosis and early prevention of disease progression.

What it can detectUterine fibroids, ovarian cysts, chocolate cysts (endometriomas), uterine polyps, and cervical abnormalities

SafetyUses high-frequency sound waves, no radiation, quick, and you can resume daily activities right away

Who should get tested

Women aged 25 and older
Pelvic pain or irregular periods
A palpable lump in the abdomen
Family history of gynecological conditions

How to prepare

Schedule at least 3 days after your period ends
Avoid douching or vaginal suppositories for 2 days before
Avoid intercourse for 1 day before
Empty your bladder before the exam

Counselling

Fertility Planning Consultation

A fertility consultation reviews both partners’ history and evaluates individual factors before choosing a treatment path — aiming for the approach that best fits your age, test results, family goals, and timeline.

Under 35Consult after 12 months of trying without success

35 and olderConsult after 6 months of trying — and sooner still if you are 40 or older

What’s included

Review of both partners’ history
Relevant tests selected based on indications
Explanation of results and their limitations
A plan for next steps, e.g. IUI, IVF/ICSI, or egg freezing

See a doctor sooner if you have

Irregular cycles or recurrent miscarriage
Male-factor issues
A treatment history that may affect fertility
