fertilización in vitro (FIV)
A set of medical procedures to help a couple have children if they have not been able to in the past due to low sperm count, blocked fallopian tubes, and some other causes of infertility. The woman is given fertility inducing drugs to cause her to ovulate numerous ova which are surgically removed and fertilized outside of her body with sperm from her mate or another donor. Two or more of the fertilized ova are then placed into her uterus in the hope that one or more will attach and develop into viable embryos. As a result, multiple births are relatively common with IVF.
