By Angela Ward


IVF is a common medical procedure designed to assist women and couples conceive children. Most individuals are unable to bear children due to infertility. When this issue arises, doctors recommend assisted reproductive technology to maximize the chances of becoming pregnant. Doctors can recommend intra uterine insemination or ovulation induction, however, IVF intro vitro fertilization is the most preferred option. This option has many advantages and various risks every couple should know before implementation.

There are a number of reasons why most women and men cannot conceive. In most cases, women who have blocked or damaged fallopian tubes have low rates of becoming pregnant. Decreased sperm count is a condition that contributes to infertility among men. Couples may consider IVF if the man has sperm motility issues. Men suffering from this condition cannot fertilize eggs which lead to infertility. In-vitro reproduction procedures give couples the chance to become parents.

Chromosomal abnormalities and genetic disorders are easily passed to the embryo during fertilization. It is difficult to determine the health of unborn babies due to this factor. However, couples who are more concerned about the health of their unborn babies can determine if genetic disorders or abnormalities are present in the embryo by implementing IVF. This fertility method allows pregenetic screening.

The success rate is very high when IVF is implemented. Married couples and single parents are sure of healthy pregnancies and live births. Doctors use more than one cycle to ensure women get pregnant. This means in case one cycle does not fertilize, you are sure of getting pregnant with another cycle. Cases of miscarriage are rare because genetic disorders present in natural fertilization are reduced.

There is no limit as to who can use in-vitro fertility assistance. Gestational carriers and surrogate mothers can experience the birth process from start to end using this option. Women who traditional or natural reproductive methods are not an option should consider this technology. This method has proven successful for same-sex couples who desire to have children.

Timing is a major concern for many couples who are concerned about their professional lifestyle or personality. Such people want to determine the best time to give birth. Intro vitro fertilization works best for people who want to determine when to become pregnant, birth dates and spacing of children. Doctors preserve eggs and embryos which they later implant in the uterus depending on the mother's or couples' timing.

Like any other medical procedure, intro vitro fertilization has its own disadvantages. Although the success rate is high with this method, not everyone who implements it becomes pregnant. Most women, especially those who are above thirty-five are more likely to get miscarriages. There are also cases of multiple pregnancies and high risks of ectopic pregnancy.

Passing fluids, bloating, cramping and headaches are common side effects. However, you should seek medical advice in case of excessive bleeding or passing of fluids, severe headaches, bloating and cramping. Patients also suffer psychological stress because the process requires emotional, physical and financial commitment. Before implementing this process, patients should understand the benefits and risks to ensure it works best for their families.
