Editing Zygote intrafallopian transfer (section)

==Procedure==
The average ZIFT cycle takes five to six weeks to complete. First, the female must take a [[fertility medication]] clomiphene to [[ovulation induction|stimulate egg production]] in the ovaries. The doctor will monitor the growth of the [[ovarian follicles]], and once they are mature, the woman will receive an injection containing [[human chorionic gonadotropin]]s (HCG or hCG). The eggs will be harvested approximately 36 hours later, usually by [[transvaginal ovum retrieval]]. After fertilization in the laboratory, the resulting early embryos or zygotes are placed into the woman's fallopian tubes using a [[laparoscope]].
