What happens during an IVF process?:

During the IVF process, the eggs are removed from a woman’s ovaries and fertilized in a laboratory with sperm provided by her partner. One or two embryos are then implanted in the woman's uterus. Several stages of IVF are described as follows:

• A woman's natural menstrual cycle is extinguished with a nasal spray or daily injections.
• Fertility injections stimulate the ovaries, so they produce several eggs instead of one.
• When the eggs ripen, they are collected with a fine needle.
• These eggs are then fertilized in a laboratory with the sperm provided by the woman's partner.
• The fertilized eggs or embryos grew in an incubator for a few days
