Frequently Asked Questions
ARMS at a Distance
Is Cycle Clarity accurate? Cycle Clarity is an FDA cleared AI software platform that is able to detect, count and measure each of the follicles in your ovary. In the FDA clinical trials the Cycle Clarity software was as accurate as a Reproductive Endocrinologist performing the ultrasounds. Most manual ultrasounds take 10 minutes. Cycle Clarity does the ultrasound in 10 seconds per ovary. The power of computing. 🙂
How long does the ultrasound take? A Cycle Clarity ultrasound typically takes 10 second per ovary and is then directly transmitted through the internet to Cycle Clarity. Cycle Clarity will verify the receipt of the images and quality of the images before you leave the OBGYN office. The ARMS ultrasonographers and doctors will review the images typically before noon and the dosing decisions will be made by 2 pm.
How does my ARMS doctor receive my results? The ARMS team have been using Cycle Clarity for patients in their office and will receive your results instantly through the Cycle Clarity platform. The Cycle Clarity platform allows the ARMS team to see your entire ovary to verify the measurements AI makes. It also allows the team to add and delete follicles if necessary and to predict the optimal time for insemination or egg retrieval.
When do I need to come to ARMS? The process would start with a telehealth consultation. Arizona law then requires a physical examination and in person visit before medication treatment can be provided. We would therefore need to meet you in person for a history and physical in one of our 5 offices to establish care. Following that, treatment can be started with your local OB/GYN monitoring you. If you are doing IVF treatment, we would then need you in our Phoenix office for care between your 10 and 14th day of medications for the final hormone testing and egg retrieval.
How much does Cycle Clarity cost? Cycle Clarity costs $236 for one month of service, unlimited ultrasounds. One month of service should cover one ARMS treatment cycle. Your OB/GYN would charge you or your insurance for your ultrasound. There would be no additional ARMS charges for the use of Cycle Clarity.
What type of cycles can I do with ARMS at a Distance? ARMS at a Distance can be used for ovulation induction and intrauterine insemination, In Vitro Fertilization, frozen embryo transfers and Egg Donation.
