What is In Vitro Fertilization (IVF)?
In vitro fertilization(IVF) is the process of creating the embryo in a laboratory environment and transferring it to the expectant mother’s uterus. The classical IVF method is the process of bringing the egg taken from the woman and a certain number of sperm taken from the woman’s husband together in a special environment under laboratory conditions, and the sperm that moves the fastest and that has the highest fertilization capacity to enter the egg itself. IVF process, controlled ovarian stimulation with exogenous gonadotropin, involves oocyte collection under transvaginal ultrasonography, laboratory fertilization process, and the trans cervical transfer of the developed embryos to the uterus.
As a result of a study carried out in 1976, a 16-cell embryo was obtained and pregnancy was created by transabdominal transferring of this embryo into the uterus, however, it resulted in an ectopic pregnancy. The first successful IVF case in the world happened in 1978 in a cesarean section in England and Louise Brown was the first baby who was born thanks to the IVF process. The first successful IVF birth in Turkey was the baby Dilek Katrancı in 1988.
