In Vitro Fertilization (Baby)

A procedure whereby an egg and sperm are fertilized in a petri dish (also known as test tube babies) outside the womb, and implanted later in a woman's uterus to help infertile couples conceive.

In Vitro Fertilization (Biotechnology)

Fertilizing an animal egg with sperm in a test tube or culture dish (not in the uterus or oviduct), and then implanting the fertilized egg back into the uterus or oviduct.

In Vitro Fertilization (Health)

Treatment for infertility in which a woman's egg is fertilized outside her body with her partner's sperm or sperm from a donor.

In Vitro Fertilization (Lymphoma)

The egg cell is fertilized by a sperm cell in an artificial environment such as a test tube or dish.

In Vitro Fertilization (Medical)

A treatment for infertility in which an egg and a sperm are joined outside the woman's body, and the fertilized egg is then inserted into the uterus or fallopian tube

In Vitro Fertilization (Men's Health)

Treatment for infertility in which a woman's egg is fertilized, outside her body, with her partner's sperm or sperm from a donor.

In Vitro Fertilization (Science)

Means "in glass" fertilization; fertilization of the egg in a laboratory; also known as test-tube fertilization

In Vitro Fertilization (Stem Cells)

A procedure where an egg cell (the oocyte) and sperm cells are brought together in a dish (i.e. in vitro), so that a sperm cell can fertilize the egg. The resulting fertilized egg, called a zygote, will start dividing and after a several divisions, forms the embryo that can be implanted into the womb of a woman and give rise to pregnancy.
