IN VITRO FERTILIZATION(IFV)
2
INTRODUCTION

• In vitro fertilization (IVF) is a
• complex series of procedures
• used to treat fertility or genetic
• problems and assist with the 
• conception of a child.
• In vitro fertilization (IVF) is the joining of a
  womans egg and a mans sperm in a laboratory
  dish. In vitro means outside the body.
  Fertilisation means the sperm has attached to and
  entered the egg.
• Normally, an egg and sperm are fertilised inside
  a womans body. If the fertilised egg attaches to
  the lining of the womb and continues to grow, a
  baby is born about 9 months later.
• This process is called natural or unassisted
  conception.

What Causes of Infertility Can IVF Treat?

• Endometriosis (Endometriosis is a condition in
  which the tissue that normally lines the uterus
  (the endometrium) grows outside it. It usually
  affects the ovaries, Fallopian tubes, intestines,
  rectum, or bladder.)
• Low sperm counts (A low sperm count, also called
  oligozoospermia, is where a man has fewer than 15
  million sperm per millilitre of semen. Having a
  low sperm count can make it more difficult to
  conceive naturally, although successful
  pregnancies can still occur.)
• Problems with ovulation (Ovulation is the release
  of an egg from your ovaries.
• Inside your ovaries lie many ovarian follicles.
  These follicles are tiny sacs that contain your
  eggs.)

• Problems with the uterus
• or Fallopian tubes 
• (The fertilization occurs in the
• womans fallopian tubes, not
• in her vagina or uterus. If the
• fallopian tubes are blocked
• and the egg released from
• your ovaries cant pass through the blockage,
  the egg and the sperm cant meet to allow
  fertilization to occur.
• Antibody problems that harm sperm or eggs (The
  presence of sperm antibodies reduces male
  fertility significantly, but does not usually
  prevent conception altogether.)

5

• The inability of sperm to penetrate or survive in
  the cervical mucus (Cervical mucus is intended by
  nature to work as a guide, helping push sperm
  along through the vagina and into the cervix and
  beyond, as well as offer important nutrients to
  give the sperm the energy it needs for the long
  journey ahead, in some cases it can actually work
  against the sperm it is intended to help.)
• An unexplained fertility problem (IVF may also be
  an option if your doctor cant pinpoint the
  problem or if other treatments have been
  unsuccessful.)
