In vitro fertilization (IVF) is a series of procedures used to help with fertility and assist with conception. IVF assists in growing mature eggs that are then collected from a woman’s ovaries and fertilized by sperm in a lab to produce as many embryos as possible. Following fertilization and early embryo development in the laboratory, an appropriate number of embryos are then transferred to the woman’s uterus. IVF allows our specialists to replicate the process of natural conception in a lab environment.
