Thalassemia

Thallassemia is an inherited blood disorder caused when the body does not make enough hemoglobin. Thallessemia can be well-managed with blood transfusions and chelation therapy. Mild forms of thallessemia may not need treatment but severe forms require blood transfusions or a donor stem-cell transplant. The only way to know that you carry traits of Thallassemia is to have a special type of test called hemoglobin electrophoresis. Thallassemia can be of three types – Minor, Intermedia and Major.

Regular blood transfusion is the only treatment available to thalassemia patients. Most thalassemia patients require transfusions every 2 -4 weeks, depending on the individuals consumption of infused cells.

A stem cell transplant is the only way that can cure thalassemia.

Every blood transfusion may cost approximately INR 15,000. The stem cell transplant may cost between INR 25,00,000 to INR 35,00,000.

For brain tumor surgery in India, If a brain tumor is identified in an area where surgery is an option, doctors would try to carefully remove as much of the tumor as they could.

The extent of the tumor’s removal will depend on the safety of the situation.

IVF & Infertility

Male Infertility

Male fertility relies on the testicles making enough healthy sperm. The sperm needs to be released from the penis into the vagina, where it has to travel to the waiting egg. Tests for male infertility try to find out whether there are treatable problems with any of these steps.

You may have a physical exam that includes a check of your genitals. Specific infertility tests may include:

Semen analysis. Your health care team may ask for one or more samples of your semen. Often, you collect semen by masturbating or by stopping sex to ejaculate into a clean container. Then a lab checks your semen sample. In some cases, urine may be tested to find out if it contains sperm.
Hormone testing. You may get a blood test to check your level of testosterone and other male hormones.
Genetic testing. This may be done to find out whether a genetic defect is the cause of infertility.
Testicular biopsy. This procedure removes a small amount of testicle tissue so a lab can check it under a microscope. It's not common to need a biopsy during infertility testing. Rarely, it may be done to find out whether there is a blockage in the reproductive tract that keeps sperm from leaving the body in semen. Most of the time, this diagnosis can be made based on your history, physical exam and lab tests. Other times, a biopsy may be done to find conditions that contribute to infertility. Or it may be used to collect sperm for assisted reproductive techniques, such as in vitro fertilization (IVF).
Imaging. In some cases, your health care team may recommend tests that make pictures of the inside of your body. For example, ultrasound can check for problems in the scrotum, in the glands that make fluids that become semen or in the tube that carries sperm out of the testicles. A brain MRI can check for tumors of the pituitary gland that are not cancer. These tumors can cause the gland to make too much of the hormone prolactin, which could lead the body to make less sperm or none.
Other testing. In rare cases, other tests may be done to check the quality of your sperm. For example, a semen sample may need to be checked for problems with DNA that might damage sperm.

Female Infertility

Fertility for women relies on the ovaries releasing healthy eggs. The reproductive tract must let an egg pass into the fallopian tubes and join with sperm. Then the fertilized egg must travel to the uterus and attach to the lining. Tests for female infertility try to find problems with any of those steps.

You may have a physical exam, including a regular pelvic exam. Infertility tests may include:

Ovulation testing. A blood test measures hormone levels to find out whether you're ovulating.
Thyroid function test. This blood test can be done if your health care team thinks your infertility might be related to a problem with the thyroid gland. If the gland makes too much or little thyroid hormone, that could play a role in fertility trouble.
Hysterosalpingography. Hysterosalpingography (his-tur-o-sal-ping-GOG-ruh-fee) checks on the condition of the uterus and fallopian tubes. It also looks for blockages in the fallopian tubes or other problems. Special dye is injected into the uterus, and an X-ray is taken.
Ovarian reserve testing. This helps your care team find out how many eggs you have for ovulation. The method often begins with hormone testing early in the menstrual cycle.
Other hormone tests. These check the levels of hormones that control ovulation. They also check pituitary hormones that control processes involved in having a baby.
Imaging tests. Pelvic ultrasound looks for diseases of the uterus or ovaries. Sometimes a test called a saline infusion sonogram is used to see details inside the uterus that can't be seen on a regular ultrasound. Another name for the saline infusion test is a sonohysterogram (son-o-his-ter-OH-gram).

Treatment may also include Hysteroscopy and Laproscopy.

The cost of infertility treatment ranges from INR 50,000 to INR 5,00,000
