Abstract
As assisted reproduction technology advances, more types of procedures are becoming available, bringing more success at solving many types of infertility. In vitro fertilization has become simpler and less invasive, with success rates as high as 30% per cycle. Intracytoplasmic sperm injection has solved many types of male infertility. This article explains in vitro fertilization technology and discusses such ethical issues as embryo ownership, multiple births, and embryo genetic testing.
