A Personalized Approach to Completing Families
Dr. Pranay Shah founded Wellspring IVF on a conviction that remains uncommon in Indian fertility practice: every patient’s protocol is built specifically for that patient — not for a condition on a referral letter. As Founder and Director of Wellspring IVF & Women’s Hospital, he has spent over 15 years not merely treating infertility but rebuilding hope — one family at a time.

The "Self-Egg First" Promise by an Indian Low AMH IVF Expert
A growing concern among fertility patients in India is the premature recommendation of donor egg cycles — often driven more by convenience than clinical necessity. Dr. Pranay Shah has built his reputation on a fundamentally different promise.
As a recognised Self-Egg IVF Expert, Dr. Shah exhausts every available scientific avenue to help patients conceive using their own eggs and genetics — even in cases of advanced maternal age, Low AMH, and poor ovarian reserve. Through customized gentle stimulation protocols, mitochondrial-targeted nutritional supplementation, advanced embryology, and precise hormonal optimization, he has helped hundreds of women who were told donor was their only option, achieve pregnancies with their own eggs. You can read real patient success stories from couples who conceived under his care. For the science behind improving ovarian reserve, read Dr. Shah’s guide to low AMH and IVF.
Only when every clinically sound option has been explored does Dr. Shah have an honest, compassionate conversation about donor pathways — and even then, you receive complete transparency, never pressure.

Frequently Asked Questions and their Answers by the Best IVF Doctor in Ahmedabad
Does Dr. Pranay Shah perform Laparoscopy and Hysteroscopy surgeries as well as IVF?
Yes. Dr. Shah is a highly trained Endoscopic Gynaecological Surgeon in addition to being an IVF specialist. He routinely performs Diagnostic and Operative Laparoscopy to treat endometriosis, PCOD, blocked fallopian tubes, ovarian cysts, and uterine fibroids. He also performs advanced Operative Hysteroscopy for uterine polyps, septa, adhesions, and submucosal fibroids. Critically, he frequently identifies and surgically corrects structural fertility barriers in the same surgical sitting — restoring natural fertility without the need for IVF in appropriate cases.
Will I see Dr. Pranay Shah at every appointment, or will I be seen by different doctors?
At Wellspring IVF, Dr. Shah prides himself on a genuinely personalized care model. He personally conducts your initial consultation, personally designs your stimulation protocol, personally performs the egg retrieval procedure, and personally conducts your embryo transfer. You are never passed between multiple doctors during active treatment. This continuity of expert care is one of the strongest differentiators of Wellspring IVF from larger corporate fertility chains.
What is Dr. Shah's approach to patients who have experienced multiple failed IVF cycles?
Dr. Shah takes a systematic, investigative approach to recurrent IVF failure — treating it as an unsolved diagnostic puzzle rather than a reason to escalate to donor. He will conduct a detailed review of all previous cycle documentation, stimulation protocols, embryology reports, and endometrial findings. He may recommend investigations including ERA (Endometrial Receptivity Analysis), immunological panels, sperm DNA fragmentation testing, and hysteroscopic cavity evaluation to identify the specific root cause of failure before designing a customized new protocol.
Does Dr. Shah treat severe male infertility, including zero sperm count (Azoospermia)?
Yes. Dr. Shah works with a team of expert embryologists to manage even the most complex male infertility cases. For men with zero sperm count, he utilizes surgical sperm retrieval techniques including Micro-TESE and PESA. Advanced ICSI (Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection) and IMSI (which uses 6,600x magnification to identify structurally optimal sperm) are then used to maximize fertilization from retrieved sperm. Sperm DNA Fragmentation testing is also available to assess sperm quality at a genetic level.
I have very Low AMH. Is Dr. Shah able to help me have a baby with my own eggs?
Low AMH is one of Dr. Shah’s most specialized areas of clinical focus. His approach is rooted in the Self-Egg First philosophy. He utilizes individualized gentle stimulation protocols, DHEA and CoQ10 supplementation protocols, and advanced embryology to maximise the quality — not just the quantity — of eggs retrieved. Many patients who were told by other specialists that donor egg was their only option have successfully achieved pregnancy with their own eggs under Dr. Shah’s care. An honest assessment of your specific AMH level, antral follicle count, age, and clinical history is made at consultation before any pathway is recommended.
Is Dr. Pranay Shah available for online video consultations for patients outside Ahmedabad?
Yes. Dr. Pranay Shah offers structured online video consultations for patients from other cities in India and for NRI and international patients. This is particularly valuable for couples who wish to review their reports, understand their diagnosis, and plan their treatment protocol remotely before travelling to Ahmedabad for the active treatment cycle.
What languages does Dr. Pranay Shah consult in?
Dr. Shah consults fluently in Gujarati, Hindi, and English — making him equally accessible to patients from Gujarat, across India, and internationally.
Does Dr. Pranay Shah handle legal and clinical protocols for Altruistic Surrogacy at Wellspring IVF?
Yes. Dr. Pranay Shah and the clinical team at Wellspring IVF provide complete, compliant guidance under the Surrogacy (Regulation) Act, 2021. From initial clinical Altruistic surrogacy eligibility evaluations for both the intended parents and the altruistic surrogate, to state surrogacy board documentation guidance and precise IVF/embryo transfer procedures, Dr. Shah personally oversees the entire medical journey to ensure full legal compliance and maximum success.
