In this video, you will find the procedure of IVF in detail. IVF stands for “In Vitro Fertilization” which is also known as test tube baby. This technique was introduced in 1981. Louise Joy Brown was the first baby to be born through IVF treatment. Till now, more than five million babies have been born with the help of IVF technology. This technique is utilized by the people who want to have a baby but is not able to conceive naturally. One out of eight couples suffer from this problem and goes for IVF treatment. Natural conception is also beautifully explained in the video. During the process of IVF, Follicle Stimulating Hormone (FSH) injections are administered at higher quantities in the female partner to produce multiple mature follicles in a single cycle. Thereafter, mature eggs are retrieved from the ovaries with the help of needle aspiration just before the ovulation occurs. Eggs retrieved from the female are allowed to mix with sperms outside the body in the laboratory. This leads to the formation of embryos. The embryo thus formed is transferred inside the uterus of the woman or female partner. Chances of having twins or triplets are higher with IVF treatment because of multiple embryos transfer in the female uterus. Apart from IVF, if a male has poor sperm quality then ICSI technology is utilized with IVF to improve IVF Success chances. The success rate of IVF treatment decreases with the age of the female partner. For example, women who age more than 35 years have 40.7 % success rate and it is only 3.9 % for women who are more than 42 years old. Nowadays, IVF is considered as one of the safest and most successful infertility treatments. IVF treatments are growing at a faster rate and a time will come when it will outrank natural conception.
