The first step is creating the embryo with In-vitro fertilization. Meaning that they have to overcome a process by which the egg is fertilized by the sperm outside of the body‚ and placed into a petri dish. Then they would have to monitor and stimulate a woman’s ovulatory process‚ and then would have to remove an egg from the woman’s

substantial and forceful interventions‚ of which in vitro fertilization (IVF) and expansions of it (e.g. OCR‚ AZH‚ ICSI‚ ZIFT) are the most prevalent. However‚ there are also other manual ART‚ not necessarily dependent on IVF (e.g. PGD‚ GIFT‚ SSR). Medication Most fertility medications are agents that stimulate the development of follicles in the ovary. Examples are gonadotropins and gonadotropin releasing hormone.

Benefits One of the major benefits of cloning technology is improvement in the field of fertility. In vitro fertilization only has a success rate of about 10%. To improve effectiveness‚ doctors could clone embryos‚ and the success rate could drastically increase (Masci 413). Another benefit in the field of fertility is that parents unable to conceive naturally‚ even with in vitro‚ or people too old to conceive‚ could still have a genetically related child (Masci 413-414). With cloning‚ egg
