Abstract

Aim. Assisted reproductive technology (ART) means manipulation of sperm and egg for fertilization outside the woman to achieve pregnancy. The main application of ART is directed to the treatment of infertility, although the technique is already widely used for research purposes, genetic engineering, production of stem cells, cloning.

Conclusion. Necessary component of such technologies is controlled ovarian stimulation. In reproductive medicine ART are considered the most effective treatment for infertility on one attempt, compared with population characteristics fertility. There are many procedures of ART, the choice of the method is the responsibility of the physician, although much depends on the level of equipment of the laboratory.
