A
few months ago some researchers from Denmark published a study
demonstrating that childlessness in women is associated with a
four-fold increased rate of death and a two-fold increased rate of
death in men.
IVF
is far and away the most common of the high-tech fertility
treatments, accounting for more than 99 percent of all assisted reproductive technology procedures. About 48,000 IVF babies are born
each year in the United States.In Vitro Fertilization is commonly
referred to as IVF. IVF is the process of fertilization by manually
combining an egg and sperm in a laboratory dish. When the IVF procedure is successful, the process is combined with a procedure
known asembryo transfer, which involves physically placing the embryo
in the uterus.
In
Vitro Fertilization (IVF) or Test-tube baby is a process in which
eggs are taken out from woman's ovaries and then fertilized with
sperms in a fluid medium in the laboratory. The fertilization
procedure depends on semen parameters like sperm count, motility,
morphology etc. Eggs are placed with motile sperm overnight in
conventional IVF.
For
women in whom first-line fertility treatments have been unsuccessful
or who have other situations or conditions, in vitro fertilization (IVF) may be the treatment of choice. IVF was
originally developed for women with tubal factor infertility
(non-functioning fallopian tubes); however, because of major advances
in in vitro fertilization, IVF is not always the treatment of last
resort. In fact, it is often the first-line treatment.
IVF
is often the treatment of choice for couples in who are experiencing
male factor infertility, particularly with intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI),
a procedure in which one sperm is injected directly into the egg.
There
are some steps in IVF process which include the following:
- Monitor and stimulate the development of healthy egg(s) in the ovaries.
- Collect the eggs.
- Secure the sperm.
- Combine the eggs and sperm together in the laboratory and provide the appropriate environment for fertilization and early embryo growth.
The
success rate of IVF clinics depends on a number of factors including
patient characteristics and treatment approaches.
IVF
success rates are the percentage of all IVF procedures which result
in a favorable
outcome. Depending on the type of calculation used, this outcome may
represent the number of confirmed pregnancies, called the pregnancy rate
or number of live births, called the live birth rate.
