Assisted reproduction pregnancy increases the risk of complications

The Lancet has published the results of a study by scientists from the United Kingdom and Germany in which they reveal that pregnancies achieved after some assisted reproduction technique have a higher risk of complications that pregnancies naturally.

These data arise after the analysis of almost four thousand medical publications in the years 1980 and 2005 in which negative consequences of assisted reproduction were mentioned, such as spontaneous abortions (between 20 and 34% more than with natural conception), preeclampsia (55%), baby with low birth weight (between 170 and 200% more, etc. Although some of these problems can also be attributed to the age of the parents or certain health problems of the parents.

Do not be alarmed with this issue, our companion Dolores told us when it was published that Babies born through assisted reproduction techniques have more risks. The medical recommendation is that children who have been fathered in this way, have a thorough medical check, according to the source we do not understand well if it is for the good of the children or for “knowing the negative consequences of assisted reproduction”, we assume that They value both issues.
