IVF is a process of fertilization where an egg is combined with sperm outside the body, in vitro in a liquid in a laboratory. Once the fertilized egg (zygote) undergoes embryo culture for 2–6 days, it is implanted in the same or another woman's uterus, with the intention of establishing a successful pregnancy. It is an assisted reproductive technology used for infertility treatment and gestational surrogacy.
