IVF treatment (In Vitro Fertilization)
- There are numerous side effects from the drugs, but one that seems to be grossly underestimated is mood swings.
- Prepare yourself prior to treatment as it challenges your mental and emotional health and relationships.
- Some states require counseling prior to starting IVF treatment. If your state doesn’t require, you should consider counseling regardless to help prepare yourself mentally and setup an ongoing support plan.
- 71% of medically assisted fertility treatments fail CDC 2012. (This stat includes a combination of other treatments in addition to IVF).
