From Test Tube to Womb: Know how IVF Process work

 | 
Ivf

In today's busy life, irregular eating habits and changing lifestyles have led to many problems. Human society is suffering from many diseases. Not being able to conceive or become pregnant has become a major concern. But nothing is impossible in the age of modern science. By finding a solution, scientists have come up with the technique of in vitro fertilisation (IVF).  These children are normal, like other children. 

It is recognised that during the Mahabharata, Gandhari gave birth to 100 children in this way. 100 pots were placed in which the lambs were kept. After they matured, 100 children were born from them. This test tube baby is also a similar process. The only difference is that through the process of IVF, the embryo is prepared and transferred into the mother's womb, and after that, the pregnancy is continued with the same care as a normal pregnancy. This is an artificial method of in vitro fertilisation, or IVF pregnancy. Children born through this process are called test tube babies. 

What is the process of IVF?

During IVF, the process of creating an embryo begins by taking the sperm from the man's body and the egg from the woman's body. In this, the egg of the woman's body and the sperm of the man's body are kept together in a tube in the lab and fertilized.  After this, the embryo is transferred into the woman's uterus. Then it grows there for 9 months and takes birth at the appointed time.

There is no difference between IVF and test tube babies. Test Tube Baby: An embryo is created in a test tube instead of a woman's fallopian tube. That is why it is called in-vitro fertilization.  The cost of this procedure is around Rs 70,000 to Rs 3,000,000, and after pregnancy, the mother and the child have to take special care. 

Difference between IVF and Test Tube Baby: There are many test tube baby centres in India that give the wrong message to people who do not know the difference between IVF and test tube babies.  Before IVF was accepted in India, the term test tube baby created a buzz among people. Some people even thought that the child was fully developed in a test tube.

Even today, it is not acceptable from the point of view of many people. India's first test tube baby, Kanupriya Agarwal, was born in Calcutta in 1978. A test tube baby or IVF baby is completely normal like any other baby. IVF treatment is becoming increasingly popular among Indians today due to their inability to conceive naturally.
