During IVF multiple zygotes are formed outside the uterus by fertilizing several eggs with the father or donor sperm. Then the healthiest zygotes are selected and placed in the mothers uterus while the others are discarded. The Catholic Church considers thesediscarded zygotes to be human life and therefore does not support IVF because they believe that life is being lost.
