Assisted conception

IVF

In vitro fertilisation, usually called IVF, is an assisted-conception treatment in which eggs are collected and fertilised with sperm in a laboratory. An embryo may then be transferred to the uterus. The medicines, timing and laboratory approach are personalised after assessment.
