Question
GIFT [Gamete Intra Fallopian Transfer].
✓
Answer
When the oocyte is collected from donor and transferred into the fallopian tube of another female, the technique is called GIFT. This female provides suitable environment for further development.
When the entrance or upper segments of the fallopian tubes is blocked, this technique is used.
Ooocytes and sperms are directly injected into regions of the fallopian tubes. Here fertilization takes place forming a blastocyst. It later enters the uterus for implantation.
GIFT is successful in only 30 per cent cases.
