In vitro fertilization is a procedure by which the fertilization of the ovum by the sperm takes place in the laboratory by personnel specialized in this field.

Through this method many couples who suffer from infertility, often caused by the modern way of life, can overcome this obstacle and thus fulfill their dream of having a child.

It should be emphasized, however, that this solution is reached only if a pregnancy is not obtained after an interval of one year of frequent, unprotected sexual contacts.
