In the world of assisted reproduction, heterologous fertilization emerges as a fundamental solution for those couples who are unable to conceive naturally. As explained by Prof. Ermanno Greco, an expert in the field, this technique is based on the use of external gametes - eggs or sperm - to facilitate pregnancy. In Italy, starting in 2014, after the revision of law 40, this practice has become legally practicable, offering new hope to many couples. A crucial aspect of this technique is the donation of oocytes, particularly requested due to the advanced age at which many women today decide to have children. This advanced age leads to a lower quality of oocytes, which are subject to chromosomal mutations, reducing the chances of natural conception. Heterologous fertilization, therefore, represents a significant turning point in these cases. The donor selection process also plays a fundamental role. The use of oocytes from women under 35 is preferred to minimize the risk of chromosomal abnormalities. This technique, accompanied by strict safety and privacy protocols, ensures a high level of reliability and respect for patients. The successes of this practice are evident, with results comparable to those obtained with fresh oocytes, as demonstrated by numerous international studies. Heterologous fertilization not only offers an effective solution to those with fertility problems, but also represents a bulwark against the need to travel abroad for these treatments, allowing couples to undertake the process in Italy, with the support and guidance of qualified professionals. #HeterologousFecondation #AssistedProcreation #FertilityInItaly ????️ Don't miss our videos, subscribe to the channel and activate the bell to receive all the notifications about new content! ????️ ********************* ????
