In vitro fertilization (IVF) is a leading fertility treatment in Malaysia, offering hope to couples facing challenges with natural conception.

Our clinic is part of the renowned Monash IVF Group, which pioneered Australia’s first IVF birth and the third in the world in 1980. Backed by over five decades of experience and advanced reproductive technologies, Monash IVF KPJ Johor delivers expert care at transparent prices to patients across Malaysia and beyond.

What is IVF and How Does It Work?

IVF, or in vitro fertilisation, is a process where eggs are retrieved from the ovaries and fertilised with sperm in a laboratory. The resulting embryo is then transferred into the uterus, where it may implant and develop into a pregnancy. 

IVF is recommended for couples with:

• Blocked or damaged fallopian tubes
• Male factor infertility
• Unexplained infertility

According to the research from World Health Organization (WHO) in 2023, 1 in 6 adults globally experience infertility during their lifetime, regardless of income level or geography. 

In Malaysia, up to 50% of infertile women are affected by endometriosis, a condition that can distort pelvic anatomy, impair egg quality, and interfere with conception, as reported in the Malaysian Journal of Medicine (2024).

IVF can help overcome many of these challenges, especially when other options are not effective. At Monash IVF KPJ Johor, we follow internationally recognised treatment protocols that not only improve your chances of success but also ensure cost-efficiency through well-planned and targeted care.

Step-by-Step: The IVF Procedure at Monash IVF KPJ Johor

The IVF process at Monash IVF KPJ Johor follows a clear, step-by-step approach to maximise your chances of a successful pregnancy:

Step 1: Cycle Start

IVF begins on Day 1 of your menstrual period.

Step 2: Ovarian Stimulation

You will use self-administered injections and medication to stimulate your ovaries, helping multiple eggs mature.

Step 3: Egg Retrieval (Oocyte Pick-Up/OPU)

Our team collects mature eggs from your ovaries under IV sedation.

Step 4: Sperm Analysis

A sperm sample is provided and analysed in our IVF laboratory.

Step 5: Fertilisation

Eggs and sperm are combined in vitro (outside the body) to create embryos.

Step 6: Embryo Development

Embryos are monitored as they grow; the highest quality embryos are selected for transfer.

Step 7: Embryo Transfer

The best embryo(s) are transferred to your uterus in a simple procedure at our Johor Bahru IVF center.

Step 8: Pregnancy Test

A blood test is done about two weeks after embryo transfer to check for pregnancy

Throughout each stage, our fertility specialists in Johor Bahru provide guidance and support to ensure you understand your IVF treatment plan and feel confident at every step.
