The children from the tube today no surprise. They grow up, go to the garden with the kids conceived in the traditional way. And that my mother gave birth using IVF treatments usually knows a limited number of family members, but the number of proven friends. Why is that?
For all the tolerance of our society while neither sterility nor medical help in solving these problems do not receive the understanding and support as we would like. And women have to seek answers to their questions, or at the reception of a specialist, or the discussion forums on the Internet, or (at worst) cry on a friend.
Task №1 - find the enemy!
Why a woman can not get pregnant the natural way - there are a lot of reasons. And which one is yours, can respond only by a doctor. From this, paradoxically sounds, in general, depends on future childbearing.
My good friend Alice (it turned out that I was aware of its problems) once told me that 5 years spent only then to find out that her husband or not. Surveys, analyzes, visits in one institution or the other, meeting with a succession of doctors reproductologists - all to no avail, the reasons no one could call it that. "You just can not imagine how I envied women friends, who, knowing his diagnosis, though we could have a go for the attempt. But I was also deprived of this... "- complained the woman through her tears.
Now, thank God, all the problems behind - in the family is growing three-month baby. But Alice still shudders when she asked for advice, whether to do IVF? She answered them all the same way: "IVF do uniquely. The only thing I wish you all - to find the very problem, and only when he saw her, he realized, you will surely be halfway to success! "
