  • While it may be news to some, it’s not surprising that a new study touts women are seeking more information about infertility. With one in eight couples struggle at some point with their family building efforts, the information currently available is lacking. Conceive Magazine along with Fertility LifeLines, supported by EMD Serono, Inc., offer an new booklet to help women and couples in their infertility journey. The booklet is called In The Know guide and Fertility LifeLines(TM) and is available at Fertility Life Lines, but you have to register to receive the booklet.

    To no surprise to me, the survey found that women gather the majority of their information about infertility online and via blogs. About half of the women thought the information on infertility was sufficient. That means that about 50% of the women/couples struggling with infertility have difficultly finding the information they need to make decisions, to cope, or for support.

  • Veteran actress SUSAN SARANDON was unfazed when doctors told her she was infertile - because she never felt she needed a baby to make her happy.
    The Oscar winner admits she never longed to have kids of her own and was not especially upset when she found out she may never conceive.
    Sarandon resigned herself to a life without children, but, when she least expected it, she suddenly found herself pregnant.

  • A baby, born from two dads? It’s possible, says a leading British scientist.

    Calum MacKellar, a lecturer in bioethics and biochemistry at Edinburgh University in Scotland said today that, borrowing from techniques used to clone Dolly the sheep, male couples could someday conceive their own children.

    Creating a ‘Male Egg’

    The technique, which scientists agree still lies far in the future, would use the egg of a woman. Genetic material inside the woman’s egg would be removed and replaced by the DNA of one of the men. That “male egg” would then be fertilized by the sperm of the other man and a surrogate mother would carry the child to term.

    MacKellar admits the concept will take at least “a few years” before it’s possible, but he added that scientists had tried the technique with mice and were working on developing it. Others in the field, however, argue the technique is many more than a few years away.

  • A new medical test for women who want to check their biological clocks is debuting in Chicago amid concerns about its usefulness and enormous interest in the consequences of delayed childbearing.

    Called Plan Ahead, it is the first fertility test that purports to measure a woman’s “ovarian reserve”—how many good eggs she has available for conception.

    The $350 test will be marketed to women who are contemplating when to have children and who want to recognize any potential biological limitations.

    Dr. Benjamin Leader, chief medical officer for the company marketing the test, Repromedix, compares it to checking the gas gauge on a car to see how much is left in the tank.

  • CHILDREN born through in-vitro fertilisation (IVF) to lesbian mothers will have the same rights as those of heterosexual couples, under law changes announced by the New South Wales government.

    State Attorney-General John Hatzistergos today said he had accepted NSW Law Reform recommendations extending “parental presumption” provisions to cover gay mums.

    It was estimated 20 per cent of the state’s female same-sex couples had children, Mr Hatzistergos said.

    The change affects those born through IVF or artificial fertilisation only, by granting parenting rights and obligations to the non-biological mother.

    “The current law discriminates against these children who, at the moment, have a relationship with the birth mother’s partner that is not recognised by law,” Mr Hatzistergos said.

    “They are unable to take on inheritance, or the benefits of compensation which may be due … following a death or injury.”

  • A Mount Pleasant company responsible for the first birth in South Carolina using in-vitro fertilization, or IVF, has partnered with a New York-based specialty management company that helps run a network of more than 100 fertility centers nationwide.

    Southeastern Fertility Center, which achieved the state’s first IVF pregnancy 24 years ago, has joined with Purchase, N.Y.-based IntegraMed America Inc. in a 25-year deal.

    Under the terms of the agreement, IntegraMed bought the assets of Southeastern and will provide a variety of services, including marketing, treatment programs for women who wish to get pregnant, and a sophisticated electronic medical records system.

    In turn, IntegraMed will be reimbursed for the cost of its services and will receive a fixed percentage of the center’s revenue and a fixed amount of its earnings. Financial terms were not disclosed.

    The deal was effective April 24.

  • I found a fantastic article about how diet affects infertility. The article mainly addresses ovulatory infertility and there was no study on male factor infertility, although some of the same dietary concepts might apply to men too. To recap (with my commentary), the article states that there is a difference between fast and slow carbs. If you’re like me, then giving up potatoes might be an inconvenience, but if it means you can improve your ovulatory infertility than DO IT.

    The article continues to discuss animal versus plant protein. With ovulatory infertility, the study suggests that protein derived from plant is more helpful to ovulation than is animal protein. The higher the animal protein the more likelihood of infertility issues. The higher the animal protein the less occurrence of ovulation issues. So while you’re trying to become pregnant, eat less meat and more vegetables high in protein.

    My favorite part of the article deals with dairy (one of my favorite foods)…the article suggests having one full-fat dairy food serving per day. They state that a pint should last about two weeks with two half-cup servings per week. Just yesterday I was feeling guilty that I take my twin girls to Baskin Robins every Tuesday for Two-for-Tuesdays. Little did I know that I was helping their ovulatory fertility by doing so - do you think it works on 3 1/2 year olds? Somehow I doubt it.

    The article wraps up with the role of body weight, BMI and exercise. Weight is a determining factor in so many diseases and I wasn’t surprised to see it mentioned here. I know skinny and heavy people who had no problems getting pregnant while the perfectly fit (as this article describes) unable to conceive. So, I agree that it plays a part, but its one of the many, many pieces of fertility issues. Seems that regular exercise actually improves more than just your overall health, it helps with ovulatory fertility too.

  • Millions of women struggle with infertility and many of them turn to medications or medical procedures for help.

    In our Healthy Living report, why new research shows many of these women could improve their odds of getting pregnant simply by changing what they eat.

    A comprehensive study of thousands of women shows those who derive the majority of protein in their diet from animal sources can have trouble conceiving.

    “The more animal protein you take in the more problems you seem to have with ovulatory dysfunction,” said Dr. Keith Blauer.

    And swapping out animal proteins for vegetable proteins such as beans, tofu and nuts can improve the odds.

    “By changing the protein to vegetable protein you can improve ovulatory function,” said Dr. Blauer.

    Protein was just one recommendation from this study.

  • First, we have what many would consider the best tag team of the last decade, and one of the best all-time to boot. They are currently a part of TNA, but have made their mark in the WWF and WWE, and should definitely be in contention when talking about the top tag teams ever. I’m talking, of course, about the Dudley Boyz, known now as Team 3D. Brother D-Von and Brother Ray compose this team, a pair of 300 lb guys who are probably the best tag team currently in wrestling today. Brother Ray is one of the funniest and most charismatic guys in the industry, from hilarious segments about trying to lose weight, to frustrating the hell out of Jim Cornette, he and D-Von constantly entertain on a weekly basis.
