What Does IVF Stand For?
IVF stands for In Vitro Fertilization
IVF, or In Vitro Fertilization, is a reproductive technology that involves the extraction of eggs from a woman's ovaries and fertilizing them with sperm in a laboratory setting. The resulting embryos are then monitored for development before being transferred to the woman's uterus, with the aim of achieving a successful pregnancy. IVF is commonly used for couples facing infertility issues and can also be utilized in cases involving genetic screening or third-party reproduction.
