IVF Treatment

In IVF, eggs are surgically removed from the ovary and mixed with sperm outside the body in a Petri dish. the eggs are examined to check if they have been fertilized by the sperm and are dividing into cells. These fertilized eggs (embryos) are then placed in the uterus of the woman, thereby bypassing the fallopian tubes. Once fertilized, the resulting embryos are placed back in the woman’s uterus with the hope that a successful pregnancy will follow.

In vitro fertilization (IVF) literally means ‘fertilization in glass,’ more simply explained as ‘test tube baby’. In the IVF process, eggs are removed from the ovaries of the female, at the same time sperms are collected from the male partner. The eggs and sperms collected are made to fertilize in the laboratory and the fertilized egg (embryo) is then implanted in the woman’s womb to make her conceive.
