A report by the International Committee for the Monitoring of Assisted Reproductive Technology, said it believed that since 2007, around 2.5 million babies have been born following fertility treatment, to bring the total to date to about five million.
IVF was pioneered by Sir Robert Edwards, who died earlier this year, and by Dr Patrick Steptoe. The first 'test tube baby', Louise Brown, was born in July 1978. By 1990, there was an estimated 90,000 births as a result of assisted reproductive technology (ART) around the world. By 2000, the figure stood at an estimated 900,000.
Now, around 180,000 IVF babies are born in Britain each year.
