Operating since before every major IVF chain in Chennai

Apollo Fertility, Indira IVF, Nova IVF, A4 Fertility — all opened after Aakash. Our founders started this clinic when IVF was still a new technology in India. 33 years of unbroken experience is not a marketing claim — it is a fact.

How to Choose the Best IVF Clinic in Chennai — 6 Criteria

What separates a great IVF clinic from an average one — and how Aakash measures up on each

1. Years of Experience & Track Record

The longer a clinic has operated, the more cycles they have performed and the more complex cases they have solved. Experience reduces errors and improves protocols.
Aakash: Founded 1991 — 33+ years, 13,500+ births. Older than every major IVF chain in Chennai.

2. Published Success Rates (Age-Specific)

Ask for success rates broken down by age group — not just an overall number. Any clinic can inflate rates by cherry-picking younger, easier cases.
Aakash: 85% for <35 · 65% for 35–37 · 45% for 38–40. Published openly — ask us for our annual data.

3. ICMR Accreditation

Under India's ART Act 2021, all IVF clinics must be ICMR registered. This covers the lab, donor programme, and cryopreservation unit. Do not use an unregistered clinic.
Aakash: Fully ICMR certified. Registration documents available on request.

4. Same Doctor Throughout Your Cycle

In large chains, junior doctors often handle egg retrieval, embryo transfer, and monitoring — you may never see the senior specialist. This impacts outcomes.
Aakash: Dr. Kamaraj and Dr. Jeyarani personally oversee every cycle from baseline to transfer. No delegation to juniors.

5. In-House Lab & Technology

Embryos should never leave the building. Clinics that outsource lab work introduce transport risk and lose quality control. Advanced technology in-house improves selection.
Aakash: Full in-house embryology lab — AI selection, time-lapse imaging, vitrification, PGT-A, ERA, blastocyst culture. All under one roof.

6. Transparent Pricing

Hidden costs are the #1 complaint against IVF clinics in India. Get a written estimate before starting. If a clinic refuses to put costs in writing, walk away.
Aakash: Written cost estimate provided before your first injection. IVF from ₹90,000 — no hidden charges, ever.

Advanced IVF Technology at Aakash — All In-House

Every technology listed below is available in our Chennai clinic — no outsourcing, no transport risk

AI-Based Embryo Selection

Artificial intelligence analyses embryo development patterns to identify the embryo most likely to implant successfully — reducing failed transfers.

↑ Implantation rate by 15–20%

Time-Lapse Embryo Imaging

Embryos are monitored continuously inside the incubator without disturbance. Thousands of images capture every cell division — the best embryos are selected with data, not guesswork.

↑ Blastocyst development rates

Vitrification (Ultra-Rapid Freezing)

Flash-freezes eggs and embryos at −196°C in under a second — preventing ice crystal damage. 90–95% survival rate on thaw vs 70–80% with old slow-freezing methods.

90–95% egg survival on thaw

ERA — Endometrial Receptivity Analysis

A biopsy-based genetic test that identifies your precise implantation window. Used for patients with repeated implantation failure — transfers at the optimal moment.

Prevents mistimed transfers

PGT-A / PGT-M Genetic Screening

Pre-implantation genetic testing screens embryos for chromosomal abnormalities before transfer. Reduces miscarriage risk and improves success per transfer in high-risk patients.

↓ Miscarriage risk significantly

Blastocyst Culture

Embryos are cultured to Day 5 (blastocyst stage) before transfer — selecting only those with highest developmental potential. Better than Day 3 transfers for most patients.

↑ Success vs Day 3 transfer

3D Ultrasound Imaging

High-resolution 3D scanning evaluates uterine anatomy, endometrial thickness, and follicle development in detail — identifying issues invisible on standard 2D scans.

Detects subtle uterine defects

Laser-Assisted Hatching

A precise laser creates a small opening in the embryo's outer shell (zona pellucida) to assist hatching — used for frozen embryos, older patients, or thick-shelled embryos.

Assists implantation in selected cases

ICMR-Certified Embryology Lab — Chennai's Most Experienced

Our embryology lab has been operating since 1991 — longer than any other fertility lab in Chennai. Every IVF cycle is handled by senior embryologists with decades of hands-on experience. Strict air quality, temperature, and humidity controls maintain optimal embryo development conditions. Embryos never leave the building.

What Our Patients Say

We came here with low AMH, and zero hope. Today, we're holding our baby girl. Aakash didn't just treat us — they walked with us every single day.
Neha & Rahul
Bangalore — IVF with donor egg protocol
After 2 failed cycles elsewhere, Dr. Jeyarani identified what was going wrong. Different protocol, ERA test, and our son was born 9 months later. We owe them everything.
Priya & Karthik
Chennai — IVF with ERA after recurrent implantation failure
As NRIs from the UK, we were nervous about coming to India for IVF. The team at Aakash handled everything — from WhatsApp updates to airport coordination. Our twins are 2 years old now.

Frequently Asked Questions — Best IVF Clinic Chennai

Answers from our senior fertility specialists

What makes Aakash the best IVF clinic in Chennai?
Aakash Fertility Centre was founded in 1991 — making it the oldest and most experienced IVF clinic in Chennai, predating Apollo Fertility, Indira IVF, Nova IVF, and A4 Fertility. With 13,500+ successful births, an 85% success rate for women under 35, senior doctors who personally manage every cycle, and a full in-house technology suite, Aakash combines depth of experience with cutting-edge science in a way no newer chain can replicate.
What is the IVF success rate at Aakash Fertility Centre?
85% per fresh cycle for women under 35 using own eggs. 65% for ages 35–37. 45% for ages 38–40. For donor egg IVF, success rates exceed 70% per transfer regardless of the recipient's age. These rates reflect our investment in AI embryo selection, blastocyst culture, ERA testing, and the consistency of our senior embryology team over 33 years.
How much does IVF cost at Aakash Fertility Centre?
IVF at Aakash starts from ₹90,000 per cycle (excluding medication). With stimulation medication (₹25,000–₹60,000 depending on your AMH and age), the all-inclusive cost is ₹1,20,000–₹2,00,000 per cycle. A written cost estimate is provided before your first injection — there are no hidden charges.
How do I know if a clinic's success rate claim is genuine?
Ask for age-specific data (under 35, 35–37, 38–40, over 40) — not just an overall headline figure. Ask whether the rate is per embryo transfer or per egg retrieval (per-retrieval is harder to inflate). Ask how many cycles the rate is based on. A reputable clinic will answer all three questions in writing. Aakash provides transparent age-group data to every patient who asks.
Will the same doctor handle my entire IVF cycle?
Yes. At Aakash, Dr. Kamaraj Thangasamy or Dr. K.S. Jeyarani Kamaraj personally manages your cycle from the baseline scan to the embryo transfer. Egg retrieval and transfer are not delegated to junior doctors. This continuity of care is one of the most important factors in IVF success — and one that large chains often cannot guarantee.
Can I get a second opinion at Aakash after a failed cycle elsewhere?
Yes — and we strongly encourage it. Bring your previous cycle records: stimulation protocol, egg count, embryo grades, transfer details, and any investigation results. Our specialists will review what happened, identify what can be changed, and recommend a personalised protocol for your next attempt. Second opinions are available within 48 hours — call +91 94296 90040.
Is Aakash Fertility Centre accredited?
Yes. Aakash Fertility Centre is ICMR-certified under India's ART (Regulation) Act 2021. This covers our embryology lab, cryopreservation unit, donor programme, and all ART procedures. Our accreditation documents are available on request. We follow all ICMR guidelines on donor screening, embryo storage, and ART record-keeping.
How long has Aakash been operating compared to other IVF clinics in Chennai?
Aakash was founded in 1991. Apollo Fertility entered Chennai in the early 2000s. Indira IVF was founded in 2011. Nova IVF was founded in 2008. A4 Fertility came later. Aakash has been performing IVF continuously for over 33 years — giving our team more cumulative clinical experience than any other fertility centre in the city.
