In Lebanon, as in many countries, the use of IVF is on the rise. There are several reasons why more couples are choosing IVF over natural conception:
Fertility issues: Many couples struggle with infertility or other reproductive health issues that make it difficult or impossible to conceive naturally. IVF offers a way to bypass these issues and increase the chances of pregnancy.
Delayed childbearing: Many women in Lebanon are delaying childbearing due to career goals or other factors. IVF offers an opportunity to become pregnant later in life.
Genetic concerns: Some couples have a higher risk of passing on genetic disorders or chromosomal abnormalities to their children. IVF allows for genetic screening and can reduce the risk of passing on these conditions.
Same-sex couples: IVF offers a way for same-sex couples to have biological children.
Control over family planning: IVF offers couples more control over when and how they have children. This can be particularly appealing for those who want to space their children a certain number of years apart or have a specific number of children.
While IVF offers many benefits, it’s important to consider the potential risks and costs involved. Talk to your doctor and do your research to make an informed decision.
