Reproductive techniques are methods used to assist individuals or couples in conceiving a child. These techniques can include in vitro fertilization (IVF), where eggs are fertilized by sperm outside the body and then implanted in the uterus. Other methods, like artificial insemination, involve directly placing sperm into a woman's reproductive system to increase the chances of pregnancy. Additionally, reproductive techniques can also involve surrogacy, where another woman carries and delivers a baby for someone who cannot. These advancements in reproductive health provide hope for many facing infertility challenges, allowing them to explore various options to build their families.
