When couples dream of starting a family, the single line appearing on the home pregnancy test over and over again might be very disheartening. However, it can also be indicative of another thing; infertility. Although many people face infertility, the matter is somewhat of a taboo, so not many people speak about it. However, with the advancement in medical technologies in the 21st century, infertility is no longer an issue and does not stop aspiring couples from becoming proud parents. The solution? In- Vitro Fertilization (IVF).
IVF stands for in-vitro fertilization. It is a kind of assisted reproductive technology that essentially works through a combination of medicines and treatments leading to the fusion of an egg with sperm outside the body and placement of the fertilized egg into the uterus. The implanting of any of the embryos in the lining of the uterus leads to pregnancy.
