In vitro fertilisation (IVF)
Infertility, as defined by medical literature, is the inability to conceive a child without appropriate medical intervention. According to the recommendations of the World Health Organization, if a woman has not become pregnant after one year of regular sexual activity, the couple is considered infertile. If the woman is over 35 years old, this period is reduced to 6 months. Modern medicine tackles this problem through various methods, one of which is in-vitro fertilization.

What is in vitro (IVF) fertilization?
In vitro fertilisation, in modern medicine, is considered an assisted reproductive technology that is sometimes the only effective means of treating infertility. In vitro fertilisation is a procedure conducted for the treatment of infertility and associated genetic disorders, and it facilitates the process of conception. The in vitro fertilisation process involves the union of sperm and egg cells outside the body in a high-tech laboratory. The processes that occur here are identical to those occurring in a woman's body. At this time, mature egg cells are collected from the ovaries and fertilised by sperm, followed by the transfer of the resulting embryo or embryos into the uterine cavity, where they continue to grow and develop. It is possible to freeze embryos or embryos. If the couple wishes, the frozen embryo/embryos can be thawed and transferred to the uterine cavity.
