What is Test Tube Baby ?

A large number of couples do not produced children in the world. They are called infertile. Nowdays, infertile couples produce children as fertile couples. There are two kinds of techniques:

                  1.     IVF (in vitro fertilization)
2.     Embryo transfer

     IVF (in vitro fertilization):
              
                                                 

TECHNIQUE OF IVF


This process is almost similar as normal fertilization. But fertilization occurs outside the body. This programme is known as Test tube baby programme. In this eggs take from female or mother and sperm take from male or husband then induced them and form zygote under stimulate conditions in the laboratory. When zygote form upto 8 blastomeres. Then transfer the zygote into the womb of the female. This technique is known as (ZIFT-Zygote intra fallopian transfer).

           2. Embryo Transfer:

TRANSFER OF EMBRYO THROUGH SYRINGE

Transfer of embryo which is more than 8 blastomere into the female’s womb. This technique is known as (IUT-intra uterine transfer).
On the other hand, egg is collected from female and introduce into the fallopian tube of other female who does not produce the child but provide a suitable environment in the womb to produce complete infant. This term is known as (GIFT- Gametes intra fallopian transfer).



GIFT-TECHNIQUE

Infertility either occur inability of male partner or due to the low quality of sperm. Therefore, collect the sperm of husband or healthy person and then transfer into the vagina of the female. This term is known as Artificial insemination.
This technique is handled by high professionals. This technique is highly instrumentation and expensive. Therefore, only few people can afford this technique.
