Summary
Assisted reproductive techniques (ARTs) are the only hope for biologically own progeny for couples that fail to conceive naturally. In the developed world, up to 4.0 per cent of all children born are the result of assisted conception, be it in vitro fertilization (IVF) or intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI). The treatment-associated interventions, though well established, are not without complications to which the couples are often oblivious, as the hope of having a child may diminish one of the most significant and basic human instincts of self-preservation.
