What Are the Side Effects of IVF?
IVF is a common name for in vitro fertilization-embryo transfer technology. It refers to a baby born by artificially fertilizing egg cells and sperm in vitro, performing early embryonic development, and then transferring it to the mother's womb for development. Originally researched by British obstetrician Patrick Stepto and physiologist Robert Edwards, the technology caused a sensation in the world's scientific community. On July 25, 1978, the world's first IVF was born in the UK. On November 27, 2011, the first "third-generation IVF" in Shanghai was born. In December, a wealthy businessman in Guangzhou gave birth to eight births with IVF technology.
