The method of in vitro fertilization emerged thanks to the Nobel in medicine andphysiology Sir. Robert Edwards who was able to carry out in a laboratory, in a Petri dish, helping to give the mystery of life to a being in 1978, there were no more than 1 '000,000 babies born thanks tothis procedure. This discovery revolutionized the methods of assisted reproduction since the fertilization is effected by outside the womb.

In vitro fertilization appears in our era to giveopportunity to many people who are infertile being the result of the influence of various factors. The process is defined as the union of two gametes egg and sperm in women in the case of the men in alaboratory dish, roughly deals with certain steps as the ovarian stimulation or call overcrowding in where the future mother is supplied medications that stimulate the ovogenesis and increase the productionof eggs, in the process the woman will be constantly monitored to maintain hormone levels, then you have stimulated the proliferation of ova, the step to follow is to remove them with a follicularaspiration.

Already once removed the eggs from the belly, will take place the insemination and fertilization, where the father's sperm cell with the ova more suitable for the mother and are stored ina camera complying with optimal environmental conditions for insemination. Cell division is carried out to become the embryo which will be constantly monitored to ensure the best conditions for thedevelopment of this new newborn, the next process is to transfer the embryo after 5 days have been cultivated in the laboratory with a tube in the mother's vagina is where the embryos are implanted inthe walls of the cervix.

Today day this revolutionary discovery gives happiness to many families is why fully supporting this type of study no matter the religious ethical or moral implications...
