		However, in prospective studies the results of gamete intrafallopian transfer in general were not superior to in vitro fertilization.
		The discrepancy in the results of gamete intrafallopian transfer as compared to in vitro fertilization could be explained by the wide range of heterogeneous groups of patients treated by gamete intrafallopian transfer and in vitro fertilization and the higher number of gametes transferred in gamete intrafallopian transfer.
		The superior results of gamete intrafallopian transfer as compared to intrauterine insemination in some reports is partially due to the difference in the stimulation protocols between the two groups.

	Infertility - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Zygote intrafallopian transfer (ZIFT) in which eggs are removed from the woman, fertilized and then placed in the woman's fallopian tubes rather than the uterus.
		Gamete intrafallopian transfer (GIFT) in which eggs are removed from the woman, and placed in one of the fallopian tubes, along with the man's sperm.
		Pro-life opposition to the destruction of embryos not transferred in vivo.

	Gamete/Zygote Intrafallopian Transfer
		Instead, the fertilized egg and sperm are transferred in their "undivided" state, which is called a zygote.
		(Note: raw or untampered egg and sperm are gametes; fertilized egg and sperm prior to cellular division are zygotes; fertilized egg and sperm that have begun cellular division are embryos.
		In a ZIFT procedure, the transfer of the sperm and egg is done 18-52 hours after egg retrieval, so the egg and sperm can fertilize.

	Getting Pregnant and ART: Gamete Intrafallopian Transfer (GIFT)
		First introduced in 1984, gamete intrafallopian transfer is an assisted reproductive technology treatment in which the eggs are removed from the ovaries and are combined with washed sperm.
		Gamete intrafallopian transfer is also a good option when IVF is not successful.
		Other examples of when gamete intrafallopian transfer is a good infertility treatment option are cases in which ovulation problems or cervical problems result in infertility.

	Gamete Intrafallopian Transfer (GIFT)
		ZIFT (Zygote Intrafallopian Transfer) is a similar procedure to GIFT, except that it is the newly fertilised egg (zygote) which is returned to the woman's fallopian tubes rather than the mixture of eggs and sperm.
		Immediately after, in a minor surgical procedure, the doctor transfers the eggs and sperm to your fallopian tubes, which lead from your ovaries to your uterus.
		An IVF embryo is transferred to the uterus via the vagina and cervix, which is a much less complicated procedure.

	American Pregnancy Association: Infertility: Gamete Intrafallopian Transfer
		One of the main differences between this procedure and in vitro fertilization (IVF) and zygote intrafallopian transfer (ZIFT) procedures is that the fertilization process takes place inside the fallopian tubes rather than inside the laboratory.
		The mixture of eggs and sperm are transferred through a laparoscopic procedure.
		In the GIFT procedure, the transfer of gametes into the tube requires an extra surgical procedure called laparoscopy.

		These treatments can be through a lifestyle change, surgery, medication, or assisted reproduction.
		There are several treatments under assisted reproduction such as In Vetro fertilization (IVF), gamete intrafallopian transfer (GIFT), and zygote intrafallopian transfer (ZIFT).
		All of these procedures harvest a number of eggs hoping to fertilize at least one and then inserting the fertilized eggs into the uterus.

		Treatment of cervical factors includes antibiotics in the case of an infection, steroids to decrease production of anti-sperm antibodies, and artificial insemination techniques to completely bypass the cervical mucus.
		While this takes place, the female may be given drugs to ensure that her uterus is ready to receive an embryo.
		Three or four of the embryos are transferred to the female's uterus, and the wait begins to see if any or all of them implant and result in an actual pregnancy.

	Jewish Law - Articles ("Cloning People and Jewish Law: A Preliminary Analysis")
		In fact, there are five techniques to assist in reproduction.
		They are; (1) in vitro fertilization (IVF); (2) gamete intrafallopian transfer (GIFT); (3) intrauterine insemination (IUI); (4) zygote intrafallopian transfer (ZIFT); and (5) intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI).
		From a halachic perspective, if IVF fulfills the mitzvah of being fruitful or its rabbinic cognate and establishes paternity, then all the remaining ones also logically must, as IVF involves the most activity outside the human body, in that fertilization occurs in a petri dish.
