      There are other ways. For example specialist doctors working with scientists can collect human eggs and put them together with sperm outside a human body in a laboratory (it’s called ‘in-vitro fertilisation’ or IVF for short) then implant a fertilized egg (the embryo) back into the womb for it to grow. If there are complications that can be a very good alternative. Sometimes eggs and sperm can be donated to help people who may not be able to make their own. Or they may have been damaged in an accident or by a medical treatment. I hope that helps.
