Fertilization of oocytes: features of natural and artificial way

Earlier, the fertilization of eggs has always beenonly in a natural way. As a result, if people were experiencing immunological incompatibility, then the chance of their children's birth was aspiring to zero. Thanks to the development of science and technology, artificial insemination is already available today. Sometimes this method is truly priceless.

Natural fertilization of eggs

This method is widely used in wildlife. It consists in the fact that the male and female gametes unite in a zygote. At the same time, only the genetic material remains from the spermatozoon, and the egg provides it, and a sufficient amount of nutrients, which is sufficient until the emerging fetus is attached to the uterus.

The natural fertilization of eggs isa process that has been perfected for a very long time by nature. As a result, it is both very effective and complex at the same time. This leads to the fact that not always people manage to have their own children. In the event that people do not have any pathology of the genitals, then, most likely, the reason for the lack of conception is the immunological incompatibility of such partners.

Artificial insemination of the ovum

Thanks to modern technologies and achievements inthe medical field today there are already quite effective ways of conception of the child by some unusual methods. The most popular is artificial insemination. This technique involves the extraction from the ovaries of a woman at once several eggs. At the same time, men take sperm, wash them. Then fertilize the eggs. After that, the specialists plant the formed zygotes in the mother's body. It is worth noting that the chance of fertilization is only 25% for each of the fertilized ova. It is for this reason that the 4-zygote is most often "replanted" at once. This greatly increases the chances of a successful conception of the child. It is worth noting that such fertilization of eggs often allows for the development of twins.

To date, any center of artificialfertilization is ready to offer a full range of services for implantation into the uterus of zygotes. So even those parents who have a so-called immunological incompatibility, have an excellent chance to conceive and give birth to their own common children. This fertilization of eggs is another factor contributing to the preservation of families. At the moment, thanks to this method of fertilization, hundreds of thousands, if not millions of absolutely healthy children, have already been born.

If a married couple is active throughout the yearsexual life could not conceive a child, they are encouraged to seek the help of specialists. They first find out the reason for the absence of fertilization and, if there are no other suitable options, suggest using an artificial method. Fortunately, today it is not so expensive as it was before, and is available to almost every family.
