As we approach fifty years of IVF, this book reflects on the journey of a procedure that evolved from modest beginnings to a cornerstone of modern clinical care. Initially, years passed between successful pregnancies, but today, 2-4% of all births globally result from ART procedures. IVF stands out as one of the few medical interventions that effectively addressed the clinical problem it was designed to solve―sterility. Originally intended for women with blocked fallopian tubes, IVF soon revealed its potential to evaluate and manipulate oocytes and embryos, addressing a growing array of clinical needs.
