Advanced Treatment Options for Infertility in Women: An Overview of Assisted Reproductive Technologies

This chapter explores the various treatment options available for infertile women, focusing on the use of human menopausal gonadotropin (hMG) or GnRH agonists to induce ovulation, followed by human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) administration. Seasonal changes in conception ability and IVF cycle outcomes in the U.S. are discussed, alongside the costs associated with assisted reproductive technologies. Advanced fertility treatments are presented, addressing common issues such as ovarian dysfunction, tubal blockages, and uterine problems, with options for donor sperm utilization in specific cases.
