Infertility issues are growing by the day, and an estimated one out of eight couple in America faces difficulty to conceive a baby. However, with several assisted reproductive technologies, treating infertility is no more a difficult task. In-vitro fertilization (IVF) is one among such procedures, and it has gained popularity due to its high success rate. The procedure uses advanced technology, and the following is a brief account of the same. What is IVF treatment? The first step done by an expert gynecologist involves inducing specific hormones to be secreted in the female’s body to produce eggs of a particular standard and quality. The hormones are regulated by giving birth control drugs or hormone injections. These inputs have to be provided on a regular basis to enable high chances of success. The dosage may vary from person to person depending on their body weight and other such specifications. As soon as the eggs mature, they are retrieved within 30-40 hours and stored in a laboratory environment. In the lab, the sperms are added to the egg to facilitate fertilization. Once there are viable embryos that are growing at a good pace, the healthy embryo is chosen and placed in the uterus, and this is the fourth step of the procedure.
