Artificial insemination
It is one of the best known, simple and successful methods among assisted reproductive techniques.It consists of studying a standard amount of sperm in the laboratory to assess their status and select those with the best performance. Subsequently, an insemination stage is carried out in the woman's uterus, which ends with the natural process of gestation.
In vitro fertilization
This is another well-known and widely used treatment. In general, it is recommended for women over 40 years of age, who have various problems getting pregnant.
It consists of fertilizing the egg with the sperm in a controlled environment (in vitro). Then the correct development of the embryo is observed to be inseminated in the mother's uterus. And 10 days after the event, a pregnancy test is performed to verify that the procedure has been successful.Â
Egg donation
Despite being similar to the in vitro fertilization method, it differs from the prior art by the participation of a donor, since eggs from the biological mother are not used. This occurs when the mother cannot produce eggs or has a disease that can transmit it to her future baby.Â
ROPA method
It is a technique used only for female partners, which offers them the opportunity to be both biological participants in the process. One of the members of the couple will be responsible for donating their eggs, which are fertilized in the laboratory and then will be introduced into the other person.
