A couple has been trying to conceive a child for 12 months. They decide to consult a doctor about their inability to conceive. After several tests, the doctor suggests that perhaps they will need to use _____ because of a low sperm count.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The doctor's suggestion of using a technology to assist reproduction due to a low sperm count points towards the use of assisted reproductive technology (ART) such as in vitro fertilization (IVF) or intrauterine insemination (IUI). Natural methods are typically recommended for couples who have been trying to conceive for less than a year, so this couple has already surpassed that timeline. Arranged reproductive technology and alternative medical technology are not standard or recognized terms in the medical field, and do not accurately reflect the suggested course of action for this couple.
