In Vitro Fertilization Research

In any of these situations, the antibodies will have developed as an immune response which can cause the baby to have anaemia and severe jaundice. With Rh incompatibility, this means whenever the woman is pregnant with an Rh positive baby in the future, antibodies will be produced in higher amounts. ABO incompatibility does not become more serious with each subsequent pregnancy. However ABO incompatibility can affect a baby until all the antibodies pass out of the baby’s system after they are born.

Ever wondered why doctors keep a pregnant women’s body weight in close examination? This is done to ensure whether your baby is developing in the right manner. The poor growth of the fetus inside the mother’s womb is known as Intrauterine Growth Restriction. Intrauterine Growth Restriction Not all pregnancies turn out to be normal and good going. Some pregnancies have certain drawbacks or some minor issues.

This problem is closely related to moral status of fetus, ethical issue about the value of life and problem of what kind of condition should be tested for. Moral status of fetus and abortions In all prenatal diagnostic tests, there is an assumption that there may be

Ironically, between 40 and 60 percent of pregnant women gain weight more than the recommended amount, according to Dr. Jacinda Nicklas, an assistant professor of internal medicine at the University of Colorado School of Medicine. There are other factors too that contribute to your weight loss program after pregnancy such as age, health conditions, and so on. Here are some important facts you need to know about postpartum losing weight:  Breastfeeding helps shed pounds, but is not your diet This is the best way to lose weight after pregnancy.

It helps infertile couple to have a baby of their own (with their own eggs and sperm) 2. Unless donor egg or donor sperm is used, the DNA will be that of intended parents only The Disadvantages of IVF are: 1. IVF can result in undesired multiple births i.e delivery of more than 1 baby. This is more likely in ivf treatment than naturally because clinics and doctors tend to transfer more than 1 embryo in the womb so that the chances of successful delivery is higher 2.

At the end of the day, it will be up to the parents on whether they will want to use the womb. Now you may think if the artificial womb can help the baby then wouldn’t it be obvious to just go with that option? It would be better to go with that option, but the mother may be too emotionally attached to the baby she wouldn’t want to let the doctors use the womb on her baby since the number of months she would have to be apart from them may seem long in her point of view. This can cause complications between the doctors and parents, because it is up to the doctors to help as many patients as they can, and that baby is one of their patients. The doctors will have given the choice to the parents and they will have to follow the decisions that the parents choose to

Internal monitoring may be used when external monitoring of the fetal heart rate is inadequate, or closer surveillance is needed. (15) It’s also an ultrasound based technology, the monitoring is done during pregnancy, labor, and delivery to keep track of the heart rate of your baby (fetus) and the strength and duration of the contractions of your uterus. (16) This is not always a benefit for women and their families.

THE COOPERATION AND CONFLICT THEORY This theory is hypothesized on the basis to generate the prediction on how FMC may increase maternal health and in cases that will decrease maternal health. The interaction between the mother and fetes is considered to be a cooperative one. Whereas parental interaction is characterized as both cooperative (genes are shared and increases fitness )and conflict (all genes are not shared and future pregnancy will be impacted by too much of maternal cells in offspring).In the light of conflict the fetal manipulation takes place by increasing the resource transfer from maternal circulation through the placenta and it has also caused the emergence of maternal countermeasure in order to limit the transfer so as to avoid impact on either sides.(6) MATERNO FOEATAL MICROCHIMERISM AND DISEASES Increased FMC will lead to certain pregnancy related disorders because of the dysfunctioning of placenta and foeto maternal hemorrhage (5)These cells are capable of surviving in the bone marrow and they are able to proliferate, differentiate and activate. Hyper activation of these cells have been found to be associated with autoimmune diseases (4).The FMC have the ability to attack the maternal tissues and leads to

Birth control pills are pills that have to be taken daily in order to prevent pregnancy. The pills are a form of oral contraception. Once again, birth control pills work by releasing hormones (progestin and estrogen) into the body that prevent the ovaries from releasing ova (eggs) and thickening cervical mucus to prevent sperm from passing. Birth control pills are very effective if they are taken correctly and on the right time each day. Less than 1 out of 100 women will get pregnant each year if they take the pill correctly.

Abortion can also affect any future pregnancies. No women wants to have their first child from someone who hurt and abused them mentally and physically. Women also get abortions to prevent the birth of a child with birth defects. A child with birth defects is very hard to take care of.

Regardless of the improvements that have been made there is still a risk of miscarriages as a result. This risk factors can be contributed to the invasiveness of the procedure as well as the time during the pregnancy at which it is performed. The later the genetic testing is performed, the more developed the unborn child is and the later the possible abortion would take place. The two most common forms of testing are ¨amniocentesis or chorionic villus sampling¨ (Rebouché and Rothenberg 989). Both of these tests ¨[require] extracting cells from the fetus in utero, either through the mother 's abdomen or vagina¨ (Rebouché and Rothenberg 989).

Curing the Future: Designer Babies Diseases and outbreaks have been becoming more and more common in the world lately. Scientists have thought of a way to reduce these outbreaks and even diseases in general: designer babies. Pre-implantation genetic diagnosis, or PGD, allows doctors to screen embryos to see if the child will have any genetic defects before the embryos are placed into a woman’s uterus for pregnancy. If doctors find anything abnormal, they use In Vitro Fertilization to create babies in ‘test tubes’ and they will insert new genes and DNA in a special laboratory (What is a…). Many parents choose this option because if they discover that their child could have a genetic disease, they will replace the faulty DNA with healthy DNA so the child does not contract the disease or illness (What is a…).

Inevitably, it would result in many more unplanned pregnancies which would equal more abortions. Really, if people want that number to go down they should be in favor of increasing the funding of Planned Parenthood. Supporting why the business should not be defunded since women would have the access to and be able to afford birth control and the number of abortions would go down, but if the government defunds them then women are not going to be able to get birth control to stop the unplanned pregnancy, which causes the abortions rise. Arguing to this the people wanting the defunding would say that the number of abortions would just continue to rise since Planned Parenthood if offering them. Which is untrue since they also offer contraception in which people could use to prevent unplanned pregnancies which lowers the abortion

As noted by Birth Control News “…sexually transmitted disease screenings are not necessary to obtain a birth control prescription, the truth is that many doctors will not prescribe birth control if a woman has gone over a year without a pap smear. ”(Dillon, 2012) Now, I know from reading this information that sexually transmitted disease screening are not required to receive a birth control prescription. But a physician will probably not prescribe a birth control prescription if test are not done in an annually check-up. So, doctors will most likely require test before giving a prescription.
