However, not all clinics take the same approach: whilst many follow standardised protocols, others \u2013 such as us \u2013 are committed to tailoring each process to the individual characteristics and needs of every patient.<\/p>\n<p>Today we explain what sets a <a href=\"https:\/\/juanacrespo.com\/en\/treatment\/in-vitro-fertilization\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><u>personalised IVF treatment<\/u><\/a> at <a href=\"https:\/\/juanacrespo.com\/en\/\"><u>Equipo Juana Crespo<\/u><\/a> apart from other approaches, and why trusting this approach is key to achieving a successful pregnancy.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>How does personalised IVF stand out from standard IVF treatment?<\/h2>\n<p>IVF treatments using a standard protocol are designed to address the majority of infertility cases. However, around 20 per cent of patients do not fit within these standard protocols. These are complex cases that require a bespoke approach, in which the treatment is adapted to the patient\u2019s progress and needs.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/juanacrespo.com\/en\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><u>Equipo Juana Crespo<\/u><\/a> is a clinic specialising in complex fertility cases; every patient is unique and, for this reason, we ensure our treatments are fully personalised, adjusting both the approach and the duration of treatment according to the patient\u2019s response and progress.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>How is a personalised IVF treatment approached at the Equipo Juana Crespo clinic?<\/h2>\n<p>The professionals at Equipo Juana Crespo continuously monitor the patient throughout the treatment to assess how her body is responding, and we adapt each phase to her needs, with the aim of maximising her reproductive potential.<\/p>\n<p>Furthermore, we do not proceed to the next phase of treatment until we have verified that the highest possible quality has been achieved at the current stage. This approach is applied at every stage of the treatment plan to avoid wasting time and resources when it is still possible to achieve the best possible outcome.<\/p>\n<p>Below, we explain how this approach is applied in an IVF treatment programme at the Equipo Juana Crespo clinic.<\/p>\n<h3>Comprehensive case assessment<\/h3>\n<p>The first step involves gaining an in-depth understanding of each patient\u2019s medical and reproductive history. To this end, we analyse the patient\u2019s medical history and previous treatments with the aim of making an <a href=\"https:\/\/juanacrespo.com\/en\/treatment\/your-fertility-diagnosis\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><u>accurate and personalised<\/u><\/a> diagnosis. For example, if the patient has previously undergone IVF treatment and the endometrial preparation did not yield the expected results, we rethink the treatment strategy. Similarly, if there have been <a href=\"https:\/\/juanacrespo.com\/en\/problem\/implantation-failure\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><u>implantation failures<\/u><\/a>, we investigate the cause to adapt the approach and design a more appropriate <a href=\"https:\/\/juanacrespo.com\/en\/technique\/endometrial-preparation\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><u>endometrial preparation<\/u><\/a>.<\/p>\n<h3>Diagnostic tests<\/h3>\n<p>Once the case has been assessed, we request the necessary diagnostic tests to identify any factors that may be hindering pregnancy. These are determined according to each patient\u2019s needs and may include ultrasound scans, MRI scans, diagnostic hysteroscopies or other supplementary investigations.<\/p>\n<h3>Tailor-made treatment protocol<\/h3>\n<p>Using all this information, the specialists at Equipo Juana Crespo design a fully personalised treatment protocol. If in vitro fertilisation (IVF) is to be carried out, the medical team plans all stages of the process \u2014 ovarian stimulation, follicular aspiration, fertilisation, embryo culture and embryo transfer \u2014 in accordance with the patient\u2019s characteristics and needs.<\/p>\n<p>However, this strategy is not set in stone. Throughout the treatment, our specialists constantly assess how the patient is responding in order to adapt the strategy and make the necessary adjustments at each stage.<\/p>\n<p>Personalisation, therefore, is integral to every clinical decision. Specialists adjust factors such as medication, the most appropriate time to carry out the embryo transfer, the number of embryos to be transferred, or the type of cannula to be used during the procedure.<\/p>\n<p>For example, in the case of <a href=\"https:\/\/juanacrespo.com\/en\/technique\/embryo-transfer\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><u>embryo transfer<\/u><\/a>, embryos will never be wasted until everything is perfect for the procedure: the reproductive system must be in optimal condition and the embryos must be at their best for transfer.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>What are the advantages of personalised IVF treatment at Equipo Juana Crespo?<\/h2>\n<h3>Identifying the cause of the problem before starting treatment<\/h3>\n<p>At Equipo Juana Crespo, the first step in our strategy is to carry out a comprehensive assessment of the patient to identify the factors preventing pregnancy.<\/p>\n<p>Knowing the cause before starting treatment allows us to design a strategy focused on tackling that specific problem from the outset, rather than applying a generic protocol.<\/p>\n<h3>Higher probability of treatment success<\/h3>\n<p>Equipo Juana Crespo boasts high success rates in its IVF treatments, thanks not only to the personalised nature of its treatments, but also to the use of innovative techniques in the operating theatre and the technology in its IVF laboratory. You can view the results of their treatments <a href=\"https:\/\/juanacrespo.com\/en\/treatment\/results\/\"><u>here<\/u><\/a>.<\/p>\n<h3>Fewer attempts required<\/h3>\n<p>Thoroughly assessing each case from the outset has a key advantage: it reduces the number of attempts needed to achieve pregnancy. In assisted reproduction, time is a crucial factor: as women age, the quantity and quality of their eggs gradually decline, and with them, the chances of pregnancy. That is why every attempt counts.<\/p>\n<h3>Optimising the time taken to achieve pregnancy<\/h3>\n<p>Designing a personalised strategy and adapting it whenever necessary avoids wasting time on treatments that do not meet the patient\u2019s needs. Personalised IVF allows each case to be approached from the outset with a specific strategy, which is particularly important in complex cases. Because in assisted reproduction, time is a key factor, and having a treatment tailored to each individual case allows us to make the most of it.<\/p>\n<h3>Greater confidence and peace of mind throughout the process<\/h3>\n<p>Putting yourself in the hands of <a href=\"https:\/\/juanacrespo.com\/en\/team\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><u>specialists<\/u><\/a> always brings peace of mind, as their training, knowledge and experience underpin a model of reproductive medicine centred on personalising each treatment.<\/p>\n<p>If you are considering visiting a high-complexity fertility clinic to treat your condition, please contact Equipo Juana Crespo on <b>961 042 557<\/b>, or <a href=\"https:\/\/juanacrespo.com\/en\/contact\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><u>by filling in our form<\/u><\/a>, and we will get in touch with you, with no obligation.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In Vitro Fertilisation (IVF) is, alongside artificial insemination, one of the most widely used assisted reproduction treatments for achieving pregnancy.
