PowerPoint for full lesson on infertility for AQA GCSE Biology/trilogy. Covers fertility drugs, IVF and disadvantages/ethical issues.
Covers:
Students should be able to explain the use of hormones in modern
reproductive technologies to treat infertility.
This includes giving FSH and LH in a ‘fertility drug’ to a woman. She
may then become pregnant in the normal way.
In Vitro Fertilisation (IVF) treatment.
• IVF involves giving a mother FSH and LH to stimulate the maturation
of several eggs.
• The eggs are collected from the mother and fertilised by sperm from
the father in the laboratory.
• The fertilised eggs develop into embryos.
• At the stage when they are tiny balls of cells, one or two embryos are
inserted into the mother’s uterus (womb).
Although fertility treatment gives a woman the chance to have a baby of
her own:
• it is very emotionally and physically stressful
• the success rates are not high
• it can lead to multiple births which are a risk to both the babies and
the mother

Really helpful for lightening planning load thanks! Youtube vids now deleted BUT if you search 'phoebe friends fertility ivf' on youtube a comedy central clip shows which is great for demonstrating the negatives of IVF. Exam q's not attached but have used alongside the evolution of a biology teacher booklet online. Thanks again- life saver!
Very well structured with interesting and varied activities. Thank so much for sharing!
