The procedure of GIFT involves the transfer of female gamete to the fallopian tube. Can gametes be transferred to the uterus to achieve the same result? Explain.

Answers (1)

To understand the process of transfer of the gametes of the uterus, we need to recall the process of insemination to implantation. The process happens in the following stages:

  • Ovum enters the fallopian tube after ovulation.
  • To fertilise the egg, the sperm needs to enter ampulla as fertilisation cannot happen inside the uterus.
  • Once the fertilisation is done, mitosis of zygote happens several times and blastocyst is produced.
  • Everything happens inside ampulla and isthmus of the fallopian tube.
  • After this, blastocyst reaches uterus and implantation takes place.

The stages indicate that GIFT includes the transfer of female gamete to the fallopian tube and not to the uterus.
