    About this ebook

    Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Book Preview:

    #1 The way fertility medicine is practiced today routinely generates stories like these. Reproductive technologies create a lot of expanded families, and we never want to discount the blessing that can be. However, we long for a new era in which technological successes will be unadulterated blessings because the technology will be offered and used only when it is necessary.

    #2 The risks and side effects of IVF are significant, and the procedures are often misused and overprescribed. They can be miracle makers, but they must be used wisely to be used well.

    #3 There are many other ways to get pregnant other than through ART. Before you choose to go down that road, however, be aware that there are many other ways through the forest that are easier, safer, quicker, and cheaper.

    #4 The fertility industry is to blame for the fact that so many people are infertile. People treat IVF as a lifestyle choice or a modern convenience, without considering the risks.

      #1

      The way fertility medicine is practiced today routinely generates stories like these. Reproductive technologies create a lot of expanded families, and we never want to discount the blessing that can be. However, we long for a new era in which technological successes will be unadulterated blessings because the technology will be offered and used only when it is necessary.

      #2

      The risks and side effects of IVF are significant, and the procedures are often misused and overprescribed. They can be miracle makers, but they must be used wisely to be used well.

      #3

      There are many other ways to get pregnant other than through ART. Before you choose to go down that road, however, be aware that there are many other ways through the forest that are easier, safer, quicker, and cheaper.

      #4

      The fertility industry is to blame for the fact that so many people are infertile. People treat IVF as a lifestyle choice or a modern convenience, without considering the risks.

      #5

      The medical field has experienced explosive growth over the past three decades, and while many doctors have helped people get pregnant, others have taken advantage of their patients’ vulnerabilities and desperation and performed unnecessary procedures.

      #6

      The first order of business when it comes to infertility is to figure out why someone is not getting pregnant. Roughly 10 percent of all infertile couples will never be able to figure out why they cannot conceive.

      #7

      The culture of medicine has led to the overuse of IVF, which is used too often, is insufficiently considered, and is too harshly pursued.

      #8

      I was the first doctor to successfully perform IVF in New York in the early 1980s. I was working as part of a team, but I was the one who actually extracted the eggs and then implanted them once they were fertilized. I didn’t like being in the middle of a revolution for medicine, and I couldn’t be part of it any longer.

      #9

      I prefer to use the gentlest methods that are effective. If those don’t work, I'm open to more aggressive interventions. The solutions to infertility don't always involve major invasive interventions.

      #10

      IVF is just the most widely used and overused ART. The odds of having a healthy full-term baby after one cycle of IVF are around 30 to 40 percent, and generally varies between 10 and 50 percent.

      #11

      The risks of many fertility treatments are often glossed over, and this is especially true for patients who don’t want to think about them. The risks are small but real.

      #12

      The risks of high-dose fertility drugs go beyond the short term, and include an increase in cancer risk. The drugs are also associated with a higher likelihood of developing ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome, which requires hospitalization and sometimes pregnancy termination.

      #13

      The goal of using large doses of fertility drugs is to get lots of eggs. However, this raises the risk of pregnancy with more than one baby at a time. Multiples pregnancies are high-risk pregnancies.

      #14

      The risks of serious, long-term problems in children born through ARTs are small. However, for couples with no other viable options for getting pregnant, these risks are acceptable.
