Tandem Cycle

Tandem Cycle

This method allows patients to optimize IVF outcomes by collecting more eggs over a short period, enhancing embryo availability for transfer or freezing. Careful monitoring and coordination are essential for safe and effective treatment.

  • Maximizes egg retrieval in patients with low ovarian reserve
  • Improves chances of successful fertilization and embryo development
  • Two ovarian stimulations conducted in tandem
  • Shortens total treatment time compared to separate cycles
  • Highly personalized and closely monitored procedure
  • Safe and minimally invasive process
  • Supports emotional and physical well-being throughout treatment

Who Can Benefit: Women with diminished ovarian reserve, older patients, or those seeking to maximize egg collection for IVF can benefit from a tandem cycle.


Procedure Overview: Two controlled ovarian stimulations are conducted back-to-back or slightly overlapping, followed by egg retrievals, fertilization, and either embryo transfer or freezing, depending on the patient’s plan.

Step 1: Initial Ovarian Stimulation
Step 2: First Egg Retrieval
Step 3: Second Ovarian Stimulation
Step 4: Second Egg Retrieval
Step 5: Fertilization and Embryo Management
