What is In Vitro Fertilization (IVF)?
Modern reproductive technology used to treat infertility has provided many infertile couples with in vitro fertilization, where the conception process takes place outside the woman’s body in a test tube.
Usually, one or two embryos are relocated into the uterus of a woman and the future’s remaining use. In Vitro Fertilization was originally used to treat women with obstructed or blocked fallopian tubes. Today this technique is used to manage or treat many serious infertility problems, including the male factor.
The IVF cycle includes the following stages: stimulation of ovarian function, vaginal puncture of the ovaries to collect eggs, fertilization, embryo culture, and transfer of embryos to the uterine cavity. We will describe all these stages in more detail in the following subsections.
