IVF Process: 1. Follicle Stimulation - Ovaries are stimulated with hormones to produce eggs (7-14 days)

2. Egg Retrieval - eggs are removed from ovary under anesthesia

3. Fertilization A. Microdroplet inseminationsperm are selected and mixed with egg to allow for fertilization.B. ICSI - some eggs are inseminated by microinjection of sperm

5. Embyo Transfer - embryos are transferred into the uterus by using a narrow catheter

6. Cryopreservation - remaining embryos can be saved for future use

IUI Process: 1. Egg production and ovulation is stimulated through medications

2. Sperm is collected via masterbation, washed and prepared into a small volume

3. Sperm is deposited into the uterus through the cervix with a narrow catheter. *bypassing the cervix increases the number of sperm that eventually reach the egg(s) in the fallopian tube(s).

Follicle Stimulation - Ovaries are stimulated with hormones to produce eggs (7-14 days)

Egg Retrieval - eggs are removed from the ovaries under anesthesia

Fertilization -

A) Microdroplet insemination-sperm are selected and mixed with eggs to allow for fertilization

IVF AND IUI INFOGRAPHICS Attached are some graphics with notes to inspire your design. Here it the content we need to include:

IVF Process: 1. Follicle Stimulation - Ovaries are stimulated with hormones to produce eggs (10 days) 2. Egg Retrieval - eggs are removed from ovary under anesthesia 3. Fertilization - sperm are selected and mixed with egg to allow fertilization.4. ICSI - some eggs are inseminated by microinjection of sperm in the laboratory 5. Embyo Transfer - embryos are transferred to the uterus through a catheter 6. Cryopreservation - remaining embryos can be saved for future use

IUI Process: 1. Egg production and ovulation is stimulated through medication 2. Sperm is collected, prepared and enhanced 3. Sperm is deposited into the cervix through a catheter.

*bypassing the cervix increases the number of sperm that reach the egg(s) in the fallopian tube.
