Where Hope Meets Science

With rising awareness, advanced technology, and ethical care, IVF (In Vitro Fertilization) has emerged as a ray of hope for couples dreaming of parenthood. Today, India stands as one of the leading hubs for fertility solutions, with thousands of successful stories proving that science and emotion can go hand in hand.

Did you know?

  • Over 2.5 lakh IVF cycles are performed in India every year
  • Success rates for women under 35 can go up to 50%.
  • With growing awareness, more couples from Tier 2 cities are now opting for IVF.

A Brief History of IVF: From the World to India

The world witnessed its first IVF birth in 1978 with the arrival of Louise Brown in the UK. Just a few months later, India celebrated its own milestone with the birth of Durga (Kanupriya Agarwal) , the first Indian test-tube baby, under the care of Dr. Subhas Mukherjee.

Since then, IVF in India has grown remarkably from a niche procedure to a widely accessible option. With cutting-edge labs, trained embryologists, and government regulation under the ART Act, India is now a global fertility destination.

Our Happy Moms

Behind every infertility success is a story of hope and courage. Whether it was their first cycle or a final try after years of struggle, these women trusted us — and became family.

After moving to various clinic's and hospital we were hopeless. After all trials we met to Dr. Nikita Rawal, who filled our life with joys and happiness. She is very mature and focused to her work. We were positive during all procedures and got the best from the clinic. The staff was very supportive with good behaviour as well. Thanks a lot to Nikita mam and all her team.

I want to share my best experience with you all. My daughter went into labour and to my surprise the whole process of child birth went off very smoothy, Surprising because it was her first baby also she is not the one to bear pains. Without epidural she went through the labour and finally a lovely baby boy was born. I am thankful to Dr. Nikita mam for guiding my daughter at every moment during entire process and giving us a beautiful life experience.

Do You Really Need IVF?

At Rawal Fertility, we always ask this question first. Can you conceive naturally with a little help? Sometimes, lifestyle changes, stress management, ovulation tracking, or medication can be enough. We use IVF only when necessary; because you deserve a process that respects your body and emotions.

Consider IVF if:

  • You’ve tried to conceive for 12+ months (6+ months if over 35)

  • Known conditions like PCOS, low sperm count, blocked tubes

  • Multiple failed IUIs or miscarriages

  • Unexplained infertility

#We recommend IVF only when other routes don’t work, never as the first step.

IVF Is Not the End It’s a New Beginning

Infertility may feel like a wall, but it can lead to a new door. IVF is not a shortcut, it’s a solution. And when paired with a gentle, holistic approach like at Rawal Fertility it becomes a journey of healing.

FAQs

IVF Facts vs Myths

 Fact: Many younger women in their 20s and 30s also opt for IVF due to PCOS, endometriosis, or unexplained infertility.

 Fact: IVF improves your chances but isn’t a 100% solution. Success depends on age, cause of infertility, egg and sperm quality, and other medical factors.

 Fact: In 40–50% of infertility cases, male factors like low sperm count or motility are involved. IVF often treats both partners.

 Fact: The process involves minor discomfort, not severe pain. Egg retrieval is done under sedation, and injections are manageable.

 Fact: There is no conclusive evidence linking IVF medications to cancer. Hormones used in IVF are similar to those naturally produced in your body.

 Fact: While lifestyle changes help, IVF is a scientifically proven option when other methods fail.
