InVia Fertility Specialists Adds INVOCELL®, An Innovative Option Used in Fertility Treatment, to its Reproductive Health Services

InVoCell Now Available at InVia Fertility Specialists
  • InVia Fertility Specialists aims to expand fertility options and help improve access to care with the addition of the INVOCELL Intravaginal Culture (IVC) System
  • The INVOCELL IVC System is a cost-conscious option that uses a woman’s own body as an incubator during fertilization and early embryo development

Hoffman Estates, IL – October 10, 2019 – InVia Fertility Specialists announced today it now offers the INVOCELL Intravaginal Culture (IVC) System as part of its scope of reproductive health services. The INVOCELL IVC System, the first-of-its-kind, which comprises the INVOCELL Culture Device and Retention Device,1 is the only IVC system cleared by the Food and Drug Administration.

“We are pleased to add INVOCELL to our current reproductive health offering as an innovative option for patients struggling with infertility,” said Vishvanath Karande, MD. “Statistics show that over 1.4 million women in the United States may benefit from advanced fertility treatment, yet only an estimated 130,000 of them begin such treatment.2 As a cost-conscious option, we believe that INVOCELL will help us improve access to care for those hoping to be parents.”

INVOCELL is a patented medical device used in the treatment of infertility that enables egg fertilization and early embryo development to take place in a woman's body. The eggs are retrieved from a woman’s ovaries and placed in the INVOCELL system with sperm. INVOCELL is then placed in the woman’s body to allow fertilization and incubation to occur, making the patient an even greater part of the process. To learn more, visit www.INVOCELL.com.
