What are the Assisted Reproductive Techniques practised to help infertile couples? Describe any three techniques

Answers (1)

Three different Assisted Reproductive Techniques:

a. IVF (In-vitro Fertilization):  Sperm and ovum are taken out of male and female body respectively and then allowed to go for fertilisation in a laboratory.

b. ET (Embryo Transfer): This step is performed after IVF. There are mainly two methods of Embryo Transfer. For zygotes up to 8 blastomeres are transferred into the fallopian tube, this technique is known as ZIFT (Zygote Intra Fallopian Transfer). The second technique is known as Intra-Uterine Transfer (IUT), where blastocyst is transferred into the uterus.

c. GIFT (Gamete Intra Fallopian Transfer): In this technique, the ovum is collected from a donor and transferred into the fallopian tube of another female who cannot produce.
