In-vitro fertilisation. Conceptual image of hands cupping a flask containing an Earth globe and a developing human foetus,representing the worldwide use of in-vitro fertilisation (IVF) treatments. This laboratory process brings the human reproductive cells of a man (sperm or spermatozoon) and a woman (ovum or egg) together outside the body to engineer the process of fertilization. The fertilized egg is implanted in the uterus of a woman where it develops into a baby. IVF is used to treat infertility in men,as well as allowing stored and frozen sperm and eggs to be used from men and women following surgery that affects fertility | |
