The ART of Making a Baby the New-Fashioned Way
A Summary of Assisted Reproductive Techniques
The science of infertility has seen an explosion of progress since Dr. Steptoe succeeded with the first "test tube" baby more than two decades ago. This milestone, called in vitro fertilization (IVF), changed everything. At the time, most people were pinning their hopes on the exotic technique of microsurgery, where (usually two) infertility surgeons looked at the entire operation through a microscope using tiny-tipped instruments so as to be as non-traumatic to the reproductive tissues as possible. The respect for the delicacy of reproductive tissues that brought about the somewhat passé advances of this GYN surgical subspecialty has in large part, because of Dr. Steptoe, been replaced by the chemical roadmaps of reproductive endocrinology that were first laid down by the secrets learned with in vitro fertilization.
