Today, reproductive medicine and IVF have become an integral part of many men and women who aspire to become parents.
Artificial insemination helps many people who cannot naturally conceive to feel the joy of motherhood and fatherhood. It all began back in 1978, then with the help of IVF it was possible to achieve conception for the first time, and for the first time a child conceived in a test tube, as they said, was born 8 years later, on January 4, 1985.
In in vitro fertilization, the egg is removed from the woman's body and artificially fertilized. The embryo stays in the incubator for several days, after which it is transferred to the uterus.The research that made IVF possible began in 1944 in the United States. Then scientists began to fertilize eggs in a test tube, but only 3 decades later, the first child was born, who was conceived using IVF. The girl was born in the UK, her name is Louise Brown.
The child was carried by a genetic mother, this case is also the first case of complete surrogacy.
