What Is IVF?
IVF or In Vitro Fertilisation, is often known as "the test tube baby treatment". IVF treatment involves placing sperm and eggs together in a culture dish (so called 'conventional' IVF) or individual sperm are micro-injected into eggs (Intra Cytoplasmic Sperm Injection (ICSI)) so that fertilisation occurs in the laboratory. Not all the eggs will fertilise when mixed with/injected with sperm, so to increase your chances of success we stimulate the ovaries to produce several eggs at the same time.
