Let me start by saying that the use of in vitro fertilization around the globe seems to have very little regulation. Although for the most part there is a medical code of ethics that usually prevents news events like the in vitro fertilization case of the Suleman octuplets.  I like a lot of people around the world was appalled at the details behind the recent birth of the Suleman octuplets. The recklessness of this situation goes so far beyond common sense that it simply just boggles   the mind when you think about it. The audacity of the people involved in this whole process just speaks to lack of common sense, ethics and regulation for in vitro fertilization.

The medical doctor (Dr. Michael Kamrava) and I will use that term sparingly, this medical doctor who decided that this woman who is a single mom on disability with six children already. What medical doctor would look at her situation and think that she would be a good candidate for in vitro fertilization? Not just any in vitro fertilization process but based on the reports the medical doctor put at least 6 embryos in during this in vitro fertilization procedure, talk about a total disregard for common sense or a medical code of ethics.

I would love to know what possessed this medical doctor to implant at least six emrbryos through in vitro fertilization to this woman that already has six children. The doc in this case is apparently well to do as his clinic is in Beverly Hills. I don’t know what do you think does this doc have a “god” complex? I would say that based on the facts of this case alone that this guy is a definite candidate for a doctor with a “god” complex.

It’s a shame that all this negative light has been shined on to the code of ethics for the medical community. Especially for such an emotionally charged procedure like in vitro fertilization. Thanks to this one case and there is now a bill being proposed in the state of Georgia with regards to limiting the number of embryos  to two for any in vitro fertilization procedure in that state. The bill is called the Ethical Treatment of Human Embryos Act and don’t you know that similar bills like this are probably already in the works for other states around the country.

Just speaking from personal experience and unfortunately I have a lot to speak from when it comes to dealing with doctors for in vitro fertilization. Everyone one of the different infertility doctors that we went to over the years have all had a limit of no more than two embryos per one in vitro fertilization procedure. I guess the old saying is true that one bad apple can ruin the bunch. Not sure if I agree with the government stepping in on what is really an issue of ethics.

So in the long run it looks like this Dr. Michael Kamrava will not only be remebered for his lack of ethics. He will also be remembered for giving birth to the government stepping in on a medical code of ethics issue and the regulation of in vitro fertilization.
