Zusammenfassung:	Methods for non-invasive retrieval of viable (i.e., able to be fertilized) oocytes from the uterus via a combination of unique ovarian stimulation and uterine lavage technology. These methods may eliminate the need for an invasive surgical procedure. Embodiments include the use of a novel hormonal protocol, including the use of injectable gonadotropins, to induce the release of immature oocytes from the ovaries of a patient. The immature oocytes mature as they transit the fallopian tubes such that mature, viable oocytes may be collected from the uterus via a uterine lavage procedure. Further embodiments include the use of a novel hormonal protocol, including the administration of Prostaglandins, Estradiol, and/or Progesterone Blockers, to accelerate transport of oocytes through the fallopian tubes. Further embodiments include kits for uterine lavage, compositions suitable for triggering and inducing superovulation, and compositions suitable for accelerating tubal transport of mature oocytes in a female patient.
