What Is In Vitro Fertilization (IVF)?
In Vitro Fertilization, commonly referred to as IVF, is a sophisticated series of procedures aimed at helping couples achieve pregnancy. The IVF process involves the extraction of eggs and the retrieval of a sperm sample, which are then manually combined in a laboratory dish.
This fertilized egg, or embryo, is then transferred back into the recipient's uterus. IVF is one of the most well-known types of Assisted Reproductive Technology (ART).
Who Is a Candidate for IVF?
IVF is often considered when other fertility treatments have been unsuccessful. It can be used as an option for conception due to a variety of fertility issues, including endometriosis, low sperm counts, issues with ovulation, or problems with the fallopian tubes or uterus. Additionally, IVF can be an option for women who have had their fallopian tubes removed, individuals with genetic disorders, or for those who want to avoid passing on a genetic defect to their child.
Research has proven IVF to be a beneficial procedure for many prospective parents. It offers hope to those who may have struggled to conceive naturally. IVF is currently the most effective form of ART and has resulted in more than 200,000 babies born per year.
