This type of infertility treatment is recommended for couples who have not been able to conceive naturally. With this type of treatment, hormones are used to stimulate the ovaries, encouraging the simultaneous production of multiple mature eggs.

This is followed by the egg retrieval process in which a thin needle is used to extract the eggs. Next, the eggs are fertilized under laboratory conditions and the resulting embryos are transferred to the uterus where they continue to develop in the natural environment of the female body.

If the process yields a significant number of high-quality embryos, they can be frozen at the patient's request and stored under optimal conditions for an indefinite period, as agreed on by the two parties.
