In vitro fertilization (IVF) is a medical procedure that currently offers the best overall chance for conceiving. IVF has multiple steps that take place over a period of several weeks and includes the harvesting of eggs, creation of embryos in the laboratory and placement of those embryos into the uterus. Indications for IVF include tubal factor infertility, male factor infertility and diminished ovarian reserve.
