What is IVF?
IVF is a kind of assisted reproductive technology, also known as in vitro fertilization embryo transfer (IVF-ET). For some couples who are not easy to conceive, IVF technology provides a solution to the problem of infertility. It cultivates embryos by fertilizing eggs and sperm in vitro and implanting them into the mother's uterus to achieve the purpose of pregnancy and delivery.

How to solve the problem of infertility?
1. IVF technology
Test tube baby technology is one of the most common infertility treatment methods at present. It is applicable to infertility caused by female oviduct obstruction, male sperm abnormality and other reasons. In this technique, doctors will collect eggs from women's bodies and conduct in vitro fertilization with male sperm in the laboratory. Then, after a few days of culture, the embryo reaches the appropriate level of development, the doctor will implant the embryo into the mother's uterus to help women become pregnant.
2. Drug treatment
Drug therapy is another common method of infertility treatment. For infertility caused by ovulation problems, doctors can use ovulation drugs to help women ovulate. These drugs can promote the development and release of eggs and increase the chance of pregnancy. In addition, for some male infertility caused by urinary system infection and other problems, drugs can also be used to treat infection and increase sperm quality.
3. Surgical correction
Surgical correction is a method to relieve infertility caused by tubal obstruction and other reasons. Normal reproductive function can be restored by surgical repair or restoration of damaged reproductive organs. For example, for the problem of fallopian tube obstruction, surgery can repair the fallopian tube, so that eggs and sperm can naturally combine, increasing the chance of pregnancy.
The real hospital
Among the maternity hospitals in China, Peking Union Medical College Hospital and Xinhua Hospital affiliated to Shanghai Jiaotong University School of Medicine all have infertility specialties to provide IVF and other infertility treatment services. Well known infertility and reproduction centers abroad include Pittsburgh Reproduction Center in the United States and Bath Long term IVF Center in the United Kingdom.
Summary
IVF is a kind of assisted reproduction technology, which solves the problem of infertility by fertilizing eggs and sperm in vitro, and then implanting the cultured embryos into the mother's uterus. In addition to IVF technology, drug therapy and surgical correction are also common infertility treatment methods. Professional infertility treatment services are available in many specialized hospitals at home and abroad. Infertile couples can choose a method suitable for their own situation, get help and realize their desire to have children.
