What is In Vitro Fertilization?

In vitro fertilization is the process of maturing the egg cells produced in the female body with drugs, then taking them out of the body with the help of special needles, fertilizing them with male sperm in a laboratory environment, and placing the developing embryo or embryos into the uterus.

To whom is IVF applied?

In vitro fertilization is a treatment method applied to couples who cannot have children due to reasons related to the woman, the man, or sometimes both. We can list the situations where in vitro fertilization treatment will be applied as follows; 

• If there is a blockage in the tubes on the uterine film or if both tubes are surgically removed
• In case of azoospermia (no sperm in the semen) or oligospermia (low sperm count) in men
• In women with reduced ovarian reserve
• If you have an endometrioma (chocolate cyst)
• In vitro fertilization treatment can be applied to preserve reproductive functions in cancer patients before chemotherapy/radiotherapy.
