• Sperm Collection: A semen sample is collected from your partner or a sperm donor.
• Fertilization: In a laboratory dish, the sperm fertilizes the eggs. In some cases, a procedure called intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) might be used to inject a single sperm directly into an egg.
• Embryo Development: The fertilized eggs, now called embryos, are monitored for several days as they grow and divide.
