Prevention of Female Infertility👩‍⚕️

Since infertility is very often the result of inflammatory and infectious diseases of the reproductive organs, it is necessary to regularly check their condition and visit a gynecologist at least once a year.

Unscheduled examinations are necessary when changing a partner or a method of contraception as well as in case of any disturbing changes and symptoms manifested in the ge***al system. In addition to a gynecologist, women also need to regularly attend an endocrinologist and a breast physician.

It is also important to monitor your diet, avoiding a deficiency of vitamins and minerals, and maintain a healthy weight, without going to the extremes – both excessive thinness and extra 20-30 kilograms can become an obstacle to motherhood.

No matter how trite it may sound, but smoking and drinking alcohol are also detrimental to women’s health, and they significantly reduce the chances for pregnancy. Therefore, bad habits must be abandoned even before pregnancy planning.

3 Myths About IVF Procedure👇

1️⃣ IVF is a painful procedure
Embryo transfer is a painless procedure that is comparable to a cervical screening test. The only painful stage during IVF is a puncture of the ovaries to collect eggs. But this procedure lasts only 10–15 minutes and is performed under intravenous anesthesia, during which the patient is asleep.

2️⃣ First IVF cycle is always unsuccessful
The younger the patient is, the higher her chances of getting pregnant at the first IVF attempt. At the age under 36, the odds of getting pregnant are around 67%. Thus, more than half of young women become pregnant on the first try!

3️⃣ IVF leads to multiple pregnancy
During IVF treatment, no more than two embryos are transferred, since multiple pregnancy increases the risk of miscarriage, premature birth and other obstetric problems. When two embryos are transferred, 25% of patients under 37 years old become pregnant with twins
In order to reduce the number of complications for mothers and children, practically all patients under 36 years old are implanted with only one embryo.

🤰Surrogacy Law in Ukraine🇺🇦

Indications for surrogacy in Ukraine are regulated by Order of the Ministry of Health of Ukraine No. 787 from 09.09.2013.

The order lists the reasons for the procedure for a childless couple. These include all sorts of pathologies of the female ge***al organs, physiology, health status, as well as more than 4 failed IVF attempts. In any case, whatever the diagnosis, the family’s unsatisfied desire to have a child is a great tragedy. And only a woman who knows the joy of motherhood can understand this. Therefore, compassion is the main motive making Ukrainians participate in programs of surrogate embryo transfer offered by international IVF clinics in Europe.

It will be legal if a surrogate mother becomes a citizen of both Ukraine and another state. In this case, she just needs to present additional documents translated into Ukrainian and notarized. Often, foreigners use this right, since the laws in Ukraine are much more protective for surrogate mothers than in any other country, including Russia, Georgia, Kazakhstan and other popular surrogacy destinations.

There are disappointing statistics accumulated in the process of research, which is conducted daily in the clinics “Mother and Child”. For example, s***mogram. 👨‍👦🧪

These are quantitative and qualitative indicators of healthy s***m motility, showing its fertilizing ability. Today, normal semen is a rarity. Just 15 years ago, the optimal rate of concentration was 120 million s***m cells per 1 ml of ej*****te, but over the past 15 years, the rates have been revised three times towards decreasing.

At the same time, only a few s***m cells are sufficient for conception using IVF. It has been strongly emphasized that inability to conceive and erectile dysfunctions are completely different things, unrelated phenomena, which practically never overlap.

There are no obvious, identified reasons for the massive decline in male fertility. There are only theories. For example, the theory that s***matogenesis is negatively affected by carbon dust, all sorts of artificial materials, mobile phones, and in general by the fact that our civilization increasingly depends on technology and “gadgets.” There is an opinion that makes feminists rather rub their hands, that the Y chromosome, which determines the male s*x, is gradually degrading, and this affects the quality of s***m in men. There are many theories. But there is no right answer to this question right now. Doctors can only treat the cause.
