Does IVF Cause Birth Defects?

Dr. Randall Loy answers this crucial question with a resounding "No!" in this episode of The Infertility Channel. Citing three large international studies, results show that underlying issues leading to infertility can also cause things like cerebral palsy and congenital heart disease. IVF, and the handling of eggs and sperm outside the body, do not seem to have an influence on birth defects.

    You’re 2/3 more likely to have a child born with birds affects through IVF. I’ve only had two friends who’ve had IVF and both their children of birth defects. This is definitely not a coincidence. One of them was born with a double cleft palette. That’s not a thing that normally happens. The doctor was shocked.

    Hi! Thank you very much for all your help to other people. Please, please, answer my question, it really means a lot for me. My parents my father is 58 and my mother is 39 are trying to have their first baby. They have been at doctor's place here in Dubai, and my mom had IUI procedure done for the first time 13 days ago. They would like to have their very first and own baby. My mom had pregnancy symtoms after IUI like breast pain gas like feelings in her lower abdomen, and she had like a lotion like cervical mucus, but she is not feeling like that now :( she was stressed and took an early pregnancy test yesterday, which is 12 days after IUI, and it came out negative. I have three questions to ask from you, can you please answer them? #1 She had watery clear liquid that is like yeasty smelling (I am so sorry if I am being too personal here, I really want to calm her down because she really is not feeling good.) after her IUI and she still has it now. Does this can be a sign of pregnancy? If not, why you think is this happening? #2 She took a pregnancy test which resulted Negative 12 days after IUI, do you think that she took the test too early? She is wanting to sleep more now but I am not sure if this is a pregnancy sign or depression. Do you think there can be more pregnancy chance until her period? #3. If this IUI doesn't work with their age, which you think that will be best for them to do next IUI for second time or IVF? Again, I would really appreciate your answers. They don't have to be long like mine just answers. Thank you very much in advance. :)
