What is IVF?

In Vitro Fertilization – IVF is an assisted reproduction technique that consists of fertilizing an egg with sperm in the laboratory. Subsequently, the embryo already formed is placed inside the woman’s uterus.

IVF is short for In Vitro (outside the body) Fertilization ( fertilization of a female egg by a male sperm); this process first happened in a test tube, so it is also popularly known as a test tube baby.

IVF is a generic name for any treatment where eggs are taken out of the female body, fertilized and grown in the lab and then the resulting embryos are transferred into the uterus. As the eggs and embryos are outside the body, we can use many advanced technology and techniques to increase the success of this treatment. IVF is the only treatment in which we can put the embryos at their final destination of implantation.
