fertilization technology
Fertilization technology involves methods to assist or enhance fertilization, the process where a sperm meets an egg to create a pregnancy. Techniques such as in vitro fertilization (IVF) involve collecting eggs and sperm, fertilizing them outside the body in a lab, and then placing the resulting embryo into the uterus. Other methods include intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI), where a single sperm is directly injected into an egg, especially useful with low sperm count. These technologies help couples facing reproductive challenges conceive by improving the chances of successful fertilization outside or inside the body.
