Egg retrieval

What is Oocyte Pick Up?

Oocyte Pick Up (OPU) involves retrieving eggs from the ovaries using a fine needle guided by ultrasound. The procedure is performed under mild sedation or anesthesia and typically takes about 20 to 30 minutes. It is painless and allows patients to return home the same day.

Step-by-Step Process:

  • Pre-procedure Monitoring: Hormonal stimulation helps produce multiple mature eggs. Follicle growth is closely tracked via ultrasound and blood tests.
  • Trigger Shot: When the follicles reach the right size, a trigger injection is given to mature the eggs.
  • Egg Retrieval: About 34–36 hours after the trigger shot, OPU is performed using ultrasound-guided aspiration.
  • Recovery: After the procedure, rest is advised for a few hours. Some mild discomfort or bloating may be experienced.
Benefits of Oocyte Pick Up:
  • Safe and minimally invasive
  • Quick recovery time
  • Maximizes chances of successful fertilization
  • Supports both IVF and ICSI procedures
