Overview

Assisted Reproductive Techniques (ART) refers to methods used to achieve pregnancy by artificial means in the lab. Techniques include InVitro Fertilization(IVF), Intrauterine Insemination(IUI), Intra Cytoplasmic Sperm Injection(ICSI).

Intrauterine Insemination (IUI)

 IUI involves collection of semen (usually by masturbation), processing semen in the lab and transferring it directly into the uterus with the help of a catheter. It can be done in a natural cycle or by using fertility enhancing drugs, which improves pregnancy rate.

In-vitro Fertilization (IVF)

In-vitro fertilization (IVF), also referred to as "test tube baby" is the most commonly used practice for assisted conception in the world. This technique was first used in 1978 in England. IVF means fertilization of an ovum (egg) with sperm in the lab and then transferring the embryo(s) into the uterus of the woman.

Intra Cytoplasmic Sperm Injection (ICSI)

Intra Cytoplasmic Sperm Injection (ICSI) is an in-vitro fertilization procedure in which a single sperm is injected directly into an egg. This procedure is mainly used to treat male fertility problems.
