Maria Fertility Hospital
Our Solution
The goal of fertility treatment is not just pregnancy, but to build a healthy family. In order to protect your health and bring a healthy child into the world, Maria Hospital offers five differentiated treatments.
Maria Hospital is the No. 1 fertility hospital in Korea, accounting for 30% of all IVF treatments performed by fertility hospitals in Korea. We have established branches nationwide to ensure that patients can conveniently access our medical expertise close to their home. Through close coordination between branches, we provide optimal diagnoses for infertility issues specialized for each patient.
While most fertility hospitals use a single type of culture solution, regardless of the grade and quality of the embryos, we have been relentlessly developing culture media solutions to steadily improve them. As a result, we have successfully formulated our own specialized culture media solution that has gained recognition for its excellence, which has been proven by the high pregnancy rate.
The time-lapse system is an innovative device used to select embryos. In Korea, Maria Hospital was the first to achieve an IVF birth using a time-lapse system. The system records every developmental stage of embryos without exposing them outside the incubator before transfer, then uses a specialized program to select the best embryos. This advanced technology can help minimize the number of embryos transferred while improving the chance of pregnancy.
Maria Hospital has been recording the highest oocyte survival rate in Korea at nearly 95% with its exceptional cryopreservation technology. The goal of cryopreservation at fertility centers is to freeze eggs properly and preserve them safely so that they can be thawed at the patient's request and the highest oocyte survival rate can be guaranteed for a higher chance of successful pregnancy. This principle forms the very foundation of fertility treatments offered by Maria Hospital.
IVM(In vitro maturation of immature oocytes) is a procedure that is mainly suggested to patients with polycystic syndrome, a condition characterized by the presence of 10 or more small follicles. It does not require ovulation induction injections intended to cause the egg to mature for extraction, as is the case with general IVF, and as a result, side effects of hormone injections, such as ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS), can be prevented. The procedure is relatively affordable and simple, and the pregnancy rate is similar to that of general IVF.
