Fertility Treatments
Fertility treatments include medication, surgery to correct anatomical problems, and assisted reproductive technologies (ART) like Intrauterine Insemination (IUI) and In Vitro Fertilization (IVF). IUI involves placing sperm directly into the uterus to fertilize an egg, while IVF fertilizes eggs with sperm in a lab, creating embryos that are then transferred to the uterus. Other options include using donor gametes (sperm or eggs), freezing eggs or embryos, and surrogacy.
