A good friend of mine and her husband are DESPERATE to start a family. She's had several embryo transfers without success. It breaks my heart, because she wants to be a mother so badly. For some women, IVF is the only path to motherhood they may ever have. [emoji853]
I'm against the lives that are lost as a result.
I think of it this way...she is giving life a chance that would have never had a chance without the procedure. As a mom, it makes me a little sad too, to think of their little embryos that didn't stick. But then I think, if she can carry just one of those to term that's a person who would have never been otherwise. And they get to be parents, and love a child. Why just let all those eggs be released, wasted, for nothing, if one could end up being their precious child? They may lose embryos trying, but if they don't try, they lose EVERY embryo that could have ever been.
