Offering a comprehensive exploration of the history and evolution of IVF and assisted reproduction, this work delves into the sociocultural, medical, and ethical implications of these technologies across different regions of the globe. The authors weave together narratives that highlight the challenges and triumphs faced by individuals and couples seeking to build families through assisted means.

As they traverse various countries, the text illuminates how local customs, attitudes, and regulatory environments shape the experiences of those involved in the journey of reproductive assistance.
