20th century ke dauraan fertility treatments me rapid innovation ho rahi thi, lekin IVF ek controversial aur largely theoretical method mana jaata tha. British scientists Dr. Patrick Steptoe aur Dr. Robert Edwards ne 1960s–70s ke beech IVF techniques pe kaam kiya, lekin in par media, religious institutions aur public opinion me doubt tha.
25 July 1978 ko jab Louise Brown ka janm hua, tab duniya ke paas ek veracious, living proof tha—ki IVF not only works, but it could revolutionize infertility treatment.
Is ek janm ne millions of families ke liye hope ka naya chapter likha.
