Researchers testing improved IVF screening
According to a new report, researchers in the UK are carrying out tests on new test that guarantees IVF success and it might be rolled out for patients in the coming months.
Researchers in the United Kingdom have said that they can improve the success rate of In vitro fertilization (IVF), which has been at the level of mid-30% range sine several years.
The researchers have claimed that they can improve the chances of pregnancy by more than a quarter through automated equipment for growing embryos. They can create laboratories that replicate conditions found inside the womb.
The new technology, which is developed by researchers at the Newcastle University, could reduce the financial cost of treatment as well as the emotional harassment of failing to get pregnant repeatedly.
The IVF treatment is expensive at present and some women go through it multiple times paying between £3,000 and £15,000 to try to get pregnant. IVF is a multi-step process involving growing embryo in an incubator for several days before it is placed in the womb of a women.
The new method is expected to reduce the chances of miscarriage and greatly boost the chances of a woman having a healthy baby.
