1. What do we mean when we say “In Vitro Fertilization”?

In vitro fertilization essentially refers to only one of the methods that can help a couple with infertilityproblems.. The correct term is Assisted Reproduction and covers a wide range of “treatments” such as insemination, induction of ovulation, and of course in vitro fertilization. By the latter we mean the fertilization of the egg by the sperm in an artificial environment and not inside the woman’s body and specifically in the fallopian tube, as is done by nature.
