Fertility Treatment

Depending on what type of fertility treatment a woman undergoes, a woman may have the potential to end up having the ¡§multiple births¡¨ side-effect. Witness the furor involving the octo-mum Nadya Suleman recently. In this present economic climate, one has definitely think carefully about the risk of multiple births. In the late 1990s the incidences of multiple births had risen by nearly eight percent. This is especially a concern if the treatment plan a couple has chosen includes in vitro fertilization. In this procedure, a woman takes medication so that she will produce and release extra eggs during her cycle. Normally a woman is only able to produce one egg during each monthly cycle. Depending on the drugs used, and the individual woman, the health care specialist can induce the release of up to twenty eggs. This is not usually done, but four to six eggs are not uncommon.

These eggs are then harvested and fertilized, so they can be put into the womb ready to attach and grow into a baby. Due to the fact that this procedure is an expensive more and a difficult one both emotionally and physically for a woman, there is pressure to place several fertilized eggs in case they do not attach. This will increase the probability of implanting working and for a pregnancy to be achieved because of this fertility treatment. Very often when the treatment does work, more than one egg implants and the woman finds she is having a multiple birth pregnancy.

There is one of two reactions to this news. Often the prospective parents are concerned about caring for more than one baby at a time. It can create emotional and financial strain as the couple tries to figure out how they are going to double, or triple, everything in their home to suit their babies. There are other negative outcomes in multiple births. The babies are smaller and are more likely to be at risk for disabilities. As well the woman will be at higher risk for miscarriage with a multiple birth pregnancy. It is one risk of fertility treatment that couples must be prepared to deal with.
