     In Vitro is a procedure in which the woman trying to achieve pregnancy takes many hormones such as Follistam, and Estrogen.  This is to stimulate the growth of follicles in her ovaries so those follicles produce eggs or ovum.  The woman is then put under anesthesia to retrieve the eggs so that he may be fertilized and later on placed back in her to hopefully develop in to a fetus and eventually a child.
