IVF in vitro fertilization

Introduction:

In vitro fertilization is a widely used fertilization technique worldwide effectively resolving a number of current infertility issues. In brief, female ovaries are fertilized under laboratory conditions and then placed in the endometrium. The treatment objective is to achieve pregnancy by transferring one or more embryos to the future mother’s uterus.
