IVF and Fertility Treatment Failures in Turkey

Turkey has become a popular destination for international patients seeking affordable IVF and fertility treatments. While many clinics offer advanced technologies and high success rates, treatment failures or complications caused by medical negligence can lead to emotional trauma, physical harm, and financial loss.

Common issues related to IVF and fertility treatment failures include:​

​

• Embryo or Egg Mishandling: Errors in storing, labelling, or transferring embryos, eggs, or sperm can lead to lost or damaged samples, or even wrongful pregnancy outcomes.

• Failed Implantation Due to Poor Technique: Negligent handling during embryo transfer may prevent successful implantation or cause uterine trauma.

• Ovarian Hyperstimulation Syndrome (OHSS): Incorrect hormone dosage can lead to OHSS, a serious condition causing swelling, pain, and risk of organ damage.

• Misdiagnosis or Poor Assessment: Inadequate evaluation of fertility issues can result in unnecessary or ineffective treatments, delays, or missed opportunities.

• Use of Expired or Inappropriate Medications: Substandard or poorly regulated clinics may administer unsafe drugs or incorrect dosages, affecting health and treatment success.

• Lack of Informed Consent: Patients may not be properly informed about the risks, procedures, or realistic chances of success.

• Psychological Distress: Failed cycles, poor communication, or negligent care can lead to emotional trauma, anxiety, and depression.

• In some cases, IVF failures are a result of biological factors. But when they occur due to negligence, substandard care, or procedural errors, patients may be eligible to claim compensation.
