“Infertile couples and winless baseball teams both meet the basic requirements for participating in the practice (conjugal union; practicing and playing the game) and retain their basic orientation to the fulfilment of that practice (bearing and rearing children; winning games), even if that fulfilment is never reached.” Do you agree with this statement?

Should fertility clinics be required to disclose all the risks of ART to couples seeking fertility treatments? Are state and/or federal laws the best way to achieve this?
Isabella, 28, andOmar, 30, have been together for three years. A year ago, they decided they wanted to have a baby, and they stopped using birth control. At first, they did not pay attention to the timing of their sexual activity in relation to Isabella’s menstrual cycle, but after six months passed without Isabella becoming pregnant, they decided to try to maximize their efforts. They knew that in order for a woman to become pregnant, the man’s sperm must encounter the woman’s egg, which is typically released once a month through a process called ovulation. They had also heard that for the average woman, ovulation occurs around day 14 of the menstrual cycle. To maximize their chances of conception, they tried to have sexual intercourse on day 14 of Isabella’s menstrual cycle each month. After several months of trying this method, Isabella is still not pregnant. She is concerned that she may not be ovulating on a regular basis because her menstrual cycles are irregular and often…
Some couples practice natural family planning (also known as the rhythm method of birth control), which involves abstaining from sexual intercourse during the time that a woman can become pregnant in her menstrual cycle. The egg only survives in the Fallopian tube for 24 hours after ovulation, so conception can only happen during a 24-hour period each month. However, this form of contraception is very unreliable and is not recommended for couples who are actively trying to avoid pregnancy. Which of the following is NOT a reason why this form of birth control is unreliable? Select one: a. Women always ovulate on the same day of their menstrual cycle every month. b. Ovulation can be affected by stress or illness. c. Sperm can survive in the Fallopian tubes for 3 to 5 days. d. It is difficult to predict exactly when in her cycle a woman ovulates.

A married American lady named Vicky T., has been married for 7 years and has not been blessed with even a single child. With the consent of her husband, she decided to take fertility pills with the hope that with that medical procedure she would bear a baby. After taking the pills for 14 months, she conceived and was on the start of the 2nd trimester. In her usual check-up with her OB-Gyne, and after an ultrasound procedure, her hope to have a baby had risen to unprecedented proportions. She was told that she was carrying seven (7) babies in her womb. According to her OB-Gyne, she would not be able to have all the babies delivered as the seven would stress too much her uterus and this could be fatal to her and all her babies. Therefore, three of the designated weak babies would have to be removed before the end of the 2nd trimester. Vicky T., got confused and was in limbo. She wanted to be guided whether the procedure was ethical or not. If so, any guilt feelings she felt would be…

• Vickie Greene is a 31-year-oldAfrican-American woman who presents with her husband Eric(age33) to the endocrinology clinic after being referred by her OB-GYN based on the results of some recent blood work. The Greenes have been trying to have a baby for almost 2 years, without Vickie becoming pregnant. The infertility workup done by the OB-GYN showed that Eric had a normal sperm count and sperm motility, and that Vickie had no anatomical abnormalities of her reproductive tract and no evidence of endometriosis. Vickie’s serum sex hormone and gonadotropin levels were all normal. The couple is contemplating in vitro fertilization but wants to make sure that there are no hormone-related causes of her infertility. Vickie says that for the past few months she has felt increasingly fatigued, which she attributes to the stress of her unsuccessful attempts to become pregnant. She wonders if she is becoming depressed. She also notes that for the past few months, she has had more difficulty…
