In vitro Fertilization(IVF)
literally means fertilization in glass. IVF is used for the treatment of male and female infertility. Originally, it is called a ‘test-tube’ technique in which the process of mixing of eggs and sperm takes place outside the body. IVF is the basis of most fertility treatments. The fertilized egg, now considered an embryo, is then implanted back into the woman’s uterus. It was developed more than 30 years ago for the treatment of women with damaged fallopian tubes. Today it is mostly used to treat a wide range of fertility problems. The first test-tube baby Louise Brown was born in 1978 and since then more than 5 million IVF babies have been born worldwide.
