In order to combat infertility, special techniques are used like (a) Stimulated reproductive technologies (b) Assisted reproductive technologies (c) Fertile reproductive technologies (d) In vitro fertilization
In vitro fertilization (IVF) is a procedure that can help couples who are having difficulty becoming pregnant due to sperm that cannot penetrate the outer layer of an egg or other conditions. Normally, the ovary produces one mature egg during a 28-day cycle. In order to ensure a successful IVF procedure, doctors try to retrieve a larger number of mature eggs. They inject the IVF candidate with drugs such as Bravelissima, which stimulates multiple follicle development, and Centrotic, which suppresses ovulation to prevent earlier than anticipated ovulation of mature ova. Which of the following correctly identifies the naturally occurring hormones that the IVF drugs are imitating?
