Question 1

What IVF laboratory technology does Cada use?

Accepted Answer

Cada operates an in‑house IVF laboratory equipped with modern devices that support high‑precision assisted reproduction. The lab utilizes vitrification for rapid cryopreservation of eggs, sperm and embryos, a technique that improves post‑thaw survival and fertilisation rates. Advanced incubators with controlled temperature and gas environments are employed to culture embryos to the blastocyst stage, enhancing implantation potential. The laboratory also incorporates time‑lapse imaging systems for continuous monitoring of embryo development, allowing embryologists to select the most viable embryos for transfer. All procedures adhere to stringent quality standards and are overseen by a certified embryology lead, ensuring consistent laboratory performance and optimal outcomes for patients.

Question 3

What fertility treatments and services does Cada offer?

Accepted Answer

Cada provides a full spectrum of assisted reproduction services designed for individualized fertility treatment. Core offerings include in vitro fertilisation (IVF) with optional intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) for severe male factor infertility, and intrauterine insemination (IUI) for couples with mild subfertility. The clinic also offers social egg freezing and social sperm freezing, employing vitrification technology to preserve gametes for future use. Additional services comprise comprehensive fertility analysis, hormone optimisation, pre‑implantation genetic diagnosis (PID) for chromosomal screening, and specialised care for conditions such as endometriosis and polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). Each programme is coordinated by a fertility specialist and supported by an on‑site laboratory, ensuring seamless transition from diagnosis to embryo transfer.

Question 4

What are the IVF success rates at Cada?

Accepted Answer

Cada reports a pregnancy rate of approximately 31.9 % per fresh embryo transfer and about 29.4 % per frozen‑thaw transfer, based on a 2023 clinical study of its in vitro fertilisation (IVF) cycles. These figures reflect the clinic’s overall success across all age groups and include both fresh and cryopreserved embryo transfers. The data are derived from internal audits and are consistent with international benchmarks for assisted reproduction centres. Pregnancies are measured after the embryo transfer of a blastocyst‑stage embryo, which maximises implantation potential. While individual outcomes vary with patient age and specific diagnosis, the reported rates demonstrate that Cada’s IVF programme delivers competitive pregnancy outcomes within the Swiss fertility market.
