Question

A couple where both husband and wife are producing functional gametes, but the wife is still unable to conceive, is seeking medical aid. Describe any one method that you suggest to this couple to become happy parents.

Answer 1

In vitro fertilization is the method suggested for the couple. Here, the fusion of egg and sperm is done outside the body of woman in the laboratory to form a zygote which is allowed to divide to form embryo. The embryo is then implanted in uterus where it develops into a foetus which in turn develops into a child.
