    IVF(In vitro Fertilization)

    Introduction
    • Couples worldwide. It is regarded as psychologically stressful by most
    individuals and can lead to depression, social isolation and a lower
    quality of life. Historically, little medical help has been available to
    infertile individuals, who were therefore forced to risk their health
    and even lives, by taking part in more or less obscure infertility-
    treatment practices. Female infertility is often he sperm . whereas
    male infertility is linked to impaired sperm quantity and quality
    In Vitro Fertilization (IVF)

    • In vitro fertilization (IVF) is the process by which a female egg is


    fertilized outside the body in a laboratory with male sperm, typically
    in a cell culture dish. The fertilized egg can then be implanted in the
    uterus and will attempt to attach and develop inside the female. In
    some cases, the eggs, sperm or embryos may be frozen, preserved
    and stored for use at a later date
    IVF: In vitro fertilization

    • In vitro: in glass

    • Fertilization: Ova + Sperm


    Fertilized eggs (now referred
    to as embryo or blastocyst) is

    Hormonal Treatments

    • Drugs currently in use include:


    • clomiphene citrate (Clomidâ, Seropheneâ)
    • human menopausal gonadotropin (hCG)
    • gonodotropin releasing hormone (GnRH) analog called leuprolide
    (Lupronâ)

    • Most of these drugs may be used alone or in a combination with others.

    Alternates of IVF

    • Gamete intrafallopian transfer (GIFT): GIFT is similar to IVF. It is used


    when a woman has at least one normal fallopian tube. Eggs are
    placed in this tube along with a man’s sperm to fertilize there.
    • Zygote intrafallopian transfer (ZIFT): ZIFT is tubal embryo transfer in
    which a woman’s eggs are taken from her ovaries, fertilized in the
    laboratory, and put back in the fallopian tubes rather than the uterus.
    • Assisted fertilization techniques when not enough sperm are available
    or sperm quality is not sufficient to fertilize include the following:
    • Intracytoplasmic sperm injection
    • Embryo cryopreservation (frozen fertilized egg and sperm)
    ICSI
    Stands for intracytoplasmic sperm injection. This process is used to inject
    a single sperm into each egg before the fertilized eggs are put back into the
    woman's body. The procedure may be used if the male has a low sperm
    count.
