Answer from the fertility expert:
Patricio Calamera, Specialist in Reproductive Medicine

It’s actually the same as a regular IVF because you have to go through the whole protocol of ovarian stimulation and then go through the pickup, you have to do the trigger and then 36 hours later do the oocytes pickup. So in timing, it’s very similar.

Answer from the fertility expert:
Malini Uppal, Medical Director and PR to HFEA, GENNET City Fertility

Mini IVF will take exactly the same amount of time as any normal conventional IVF because it depends on the length of the cycle, how long you should receive stimulation, or before the egg collection, should we make it as close as possible to your natural cycle or natural production of the duration of the egg. So naturally the egg takes around 10/11 days in the beginning of the cycle, from day one or recruitment to the time it is mature. It takes around that number of days for an egg to be cooked well, or to be matured well. In the cycle or the IVF cycle we would make it the same, so you would take medication for around 10/11 days, you will have your trigger anywhere between 11,12 or 13 days in the cycle and you will have your egg collection any time between 13-15 of your cycle.
