Use Fertilo at Your Clinic

Join the growing list of clinics using Fertilo to improve IVF and egg freezing.

Fertilo has not been approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for safety or efficacy.

Accessible for patients and clinics

Quick and easy integration into clinic workstreams.

Fertilo effectively matures immature eggs (oocytes) in vitro, allowing you to adopt an efficient minimal stimulation protocol.

By improving the efficacy of in vitro maturation (IVM), Fertilo offers a viable alternative to conventional hormonal stimulation for your patients.

Accessible protocol that reduces the burden on patients.

The Fertilo protocol requires oral Clomid plus 1 to 3 days of gonadotropin injections prior to the retrieval of oocytes — up to 80% less than conventional IVF and egg freezing.

By maturing eggs in vitro, Fertilo reduces the need for monitoring, and protects your patients from the risks and side effects of conventional hormonal stimulation.

Comprehensive and extensive training program.

Gameto provides extensive training resources and ongoing support to all of our clinical partners, making it easy for you to get up and running with Fertilo.

1 Day Before Oocyte Retrieval

The IVM media and dish to which Fertilo and COCs will be added are prepared

2 Day of Retrieval

Fertilo is thawed and prepared

Fertilo is added to the prepared culture dish; COCs are identified, added to the dish and cultured for 30 hours

3 Day After Retrieval

COCs are washed, denuded, and checked for maturity. The rest of the cycle (e.g., fertilization, freezing) proceeds according to clinic standard practice

Best Practices for the Search of Immature Cumulus-Oocyte Complexes

Ideal follicle size to target is 6-12mm.
The aspirated follicular fluid should pass through a 70-micron cell strainer. This method allows blood to pass through while trapping COCs and other cumulus cells, significantly improving the search process.
Then, the strainer is inverted over a dish containing search medium and briefly rinsed to allow the release of the COCs into the medium.
Heparinized collection media is used to reduce bloody fluid, prevent clotting, helping to improve oocyte visibility.
Punctures of small follicles also tend to produce thread-like blood clots. It is recommended that embryologists use needles to separate them, as COCs may be attached to them.
If staffing allows, it is advisable for two embryologists to perform successive searches.

Fertilo’s laboratory search procedure is something any embryologist can do with proper training

Though the follicular aspirate is slightly bloodier than conventional retrievals, the combined use of the cell filter and heparinized collection media create a virtually clear fluid for search. With the proper training, embryologists are able to learn how to master this technique effectively.

Gameto provides extensive online embryologist training and materials to assist with seamless integration of this technique

Embryologists around the world have been trained to follow Fertilo’s protocol and have reported back about the robustness of the training materials and protocol instructions.

An extensive online embryologist training course was perfected through the in-person training experience while onboarding our first clinics; the course is sufficient for any trained embryologist to master the steps of the Fertilo protocol.
