What Is a Gamete Intrafallopian Transfer?
Gamete intrafallopian tube transplantation, referred to as GIFT. It is a new method developed for the treatment of infertility that is simpler, more economical and more successful after IVF technology. The gametes, that is, mature eggs and active sperm, are placed directly into the ampulla of the fallopian tube through a laparoscope or a small abdominal incision, so that the sperm and eggs are naturally fertilized in the normal fallopian tube of the human body. The fertilized egg then migrates through the ciliary movement of the fallopian tube wall and implants in the uterus for further development.

- The GIFT procedure is: ovulation promotion, egg retrieval, egg culture and semen treatment, in vitro fertilization and embryo transfer (in vitro baby). First fully exhausted under laparoscopy
- The biggest difference between gamete intrafallopian tube transfer and IVF is that it is not necessary to perform in vitro fertilization and early embryo culture, but to put the capable sperm and eggs directly into the tubal ampulla. The advantage is that no complicated in vitro culture conditions are needed, and the fertilization and development process are closer to physiology, but at least one side of the fallopian tube is unobstructed.
