In zygote intrafallopian transfer or ZIFT, the embryos are introduced directly into the patient's fallopian tubes at the zygote stage. This procedure is, therefore, a process more similar to what occurs physiologically in a natural conception. This characteristic is one of its greatest advantages, since the embryos will spend less time in the laboratory and the first stages of embryonic development will take place inside the woman's body.
On the other hand, this procedure also avoids the manipulation of the uterus of conventional uterine transfer.
