In Vitro Fertilization
In vitro fertilization is a common treatment for fertility.
Fertility Specialist Enrique Soto explains they give a woman a medication for ten days, like FHS and LH, which are injected subcutaneously. “In that period, the woman will produce maybe ten eggs in each ovary and at the end of ten days, eggs will be removed, combined with sperm and doctors wait five or six days until that embryo grows in the lab. After that, they can either take an embryo (one or two) or place it into the uterus."
He recommends that patients older than 35 do genetic testing on the embryo in order to rule out many genetic conditions.
