Is a test-tube baby more likely to be abnormal?

So far all the babies that have been healthy and normal. There has been healthy and normal. There has been no sign in the work undertaken to date that this is a danger. Of course, the numbers involved are too small for accurate statistical assessment. We have been trying for three years to have a baby, but without success. Should I ask my doctor about the possibility of a test-tube baby? You and your husband certainly go to your doctor who will probably refer you to an infertility clinic. There are a number of causes of infertility and the different treatments depend on the cause.

If it is discovered that you have blocked or damaged Fallopian tubes then the greatest hope a success at the moments lies in microsurgery. This is carried out at special centers. Only if this fails should you consider the possibility of in vitro fertilization and then very carefully, since the success rate at present is low.

At my antenatal clinic I was told to take iron tablets, and I have been doing this all through my pregnancy. Will these damage my baby. No. Iron tablets are perfectly safe and have never been shown to cause a malformed baby. In fact they may reduce the chances of spina bifida. I wasn’t immunized against German measles when I was a teenager. Now that my husband and I are planning to start a family, I want to have the vaccination. Will I have to avoid getting pregnant for a while afterward? Yes, but only for three months following your vaccination. After that any pregnancy will not be affective by the vaccine.
