Complete program of preparation of the couple for a successful IVF, ovulation induction, ovum retrieval and fertilisation (Modern Laboratory of Assisted Human Fertilisation, IVF), embryo transfer, observation of the success of implantation. The In Vitro Fertilisation nowadays has high rates of success, which at our Center are 48-50% per embryo transfer for women under 37 years old, regardless of cause of subfertility, and smaller rates of success for women older than 38 years of age. In cases of oligoasthenospermia or azoospermia a revolutionary solution for any problem of male subfertility is applied. Today, with this method (ICSI), any type of sperm regardless of count, motility, vitality, or morphology can fertilise. The rates of success of the method are very high (as in
