IVF in the times of Covid-19 Safety and precautions

Is there a need to delay the IVF procedure after getting a Covid-19 vaccine? Dr.Shivani Sachdev Gour provides some insight.

What we thought was the end was just the beginning. The deadly second wave of Covid which affected people more from the reproductive age group reaffirms that we will need to continue to live in a COVID-19 environment for the foreseeable future. As per ASRM (American Society of Reproductive Medicine) there is a need to ensure that essential medical care, including reproductive care, is provided while maximizing safety.

An essential protective tool in the pandemic is the Covid19 vaccines. Although they are not 100 percent effective yet they are efficacious in reducing the severity of the disease and even preventing it. There is no need to delay getting pregnant after the covid-19 vaccination so you can go for IVF treatment immediately after or even during covid19 vaccination. As it is a dead virus it does not have any impact on fertility treatment. As per recent Government of India Guidelines vaccines are safe even during pregnancy and in the pre-pregnancy period.
