Conclusion

The developments in ART have enabled a broader range of infertility disorders to be managed by ART and made possible a customized approach to infertility management based upon defining the major factors underlying infertility and providing the most relevant treatment procedure to produce reliably satisfactory pregnancy rates.

The results are likely to improve further by reducing the chance of canceled controlled ovarian hyperstimulation cycles, for example, improved ovarian responsiveness with growth hormone, by increasing the fertilization rate in severe male-factor cases with sperm enhancers and micromanipulation and by developing coculture and embryo cryopreservation.
