IVF is recommended in several specific situations rather than as a default first step for every infertile couple.
The main indications
IVF is indicated for severe endometriosis, genetic conditions carrying a high risk of hereditary disease, low ovarian reserve, bilateral tubal blockage, severe male factor infertility, multiple failures of ovulation induction, and unexplained infertility that hasn't resolved with simpler treatment.
