In vitro fertilisation (IVF)

In vitro fertilization (IVF) is a medical procedure used to help people conceive a baby. It involves collecting eggs from a woman’s ovaries and sperm from a male partner or donor. These are combined in a laboratory dish, allowing fertilization to occur. The resulting embryos are monitored for a few days, and one or more healthy embryos are then implanted into the woman's uterus. IVF can be an option for couples facing infertility, certain medical conditions, or those using donated eggs or sperm. It offers hope for many who struggle to achieve pregnancy naturally.
