An Overview on the Recent Developments in In Vitro Fertilization Techniques

Kenzemed Akar

In Vitro Fertilization (IVF) has revolutionized the field of reproductive medicine since its inception in the late 1970s. Since the birth of Louise Brown, the world's first "test tube baby" in 1978, IVF has evolved significantly, offering new avenues to overcome infertility and broaden the horizons of family planning. The past few decades have witnessed a multitude of groundbreaking developments, from improved hormonal stimulation protocols that enhance egg production to more precise techniques for embryo selection. One notable advancement is the rise of Preimplantation Genetic Testing (PGT), which allows for the screening of embryos for genetic abnormalities before implantation, reducing the risk of genetic disorders and increasing the chances of a successful pregnancy. Additionally, the emergence of cryopreservation techniques has extended the viability of eggs and embryos, offering greater flexibility in family planning. Furthermore, advancements in laboratory technology, such as time-lapse imaging andartificial intelligence applications, have enhanced the monitoring of embryo development and selection processes, increasing the chances of selecting the healthiest embryos for transfer.
