they aren’t overwhelmed by failure incase it does not succeed. The women also need to understand the unpredictable emotions that the fertility drugs trigger as well as the biological implications which are mentioned above such as the ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome and obviously the chance of miscarriage which is around 15-20% likely. A large emotional impact that can challenge the couple is the baggage that they take to the fertility clinic. This is

IVF increases the chance of multiple births, ovarian hyper stimulation syndrome and ectopic pregnancy. Multiple births is a result of more than one zygote being present in a woman’s uterus

be beneficial to the live-birth outcome. In addition, using frozen embryos causes a reduction in the risk of ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS) (Bhattacharya 241). Roque et. al. states that IVF outcomes are better when using frozen-thawed embryo transfers rather than fresh embryo transfers, as using fresh embryos requires the use of controlled ovarian stimulation (1). Controlled ovarian stimulation involves the use of several fertility medications to induce ovulation in multiple follicles. This

originally developed to treat infertility caused by damaged or blocked fallopian tubes however, it has since become the starting point for screening embryos for genetic disorders in typically fertile couples. The IVF process requires the woman to undergo ovarian stimulation in which ‘fertility drugs’ are taken to stimulate the maturation of multiple eggs (6-10 eggs) as opposed to just one. Once the eggs have matured and ready for collection a needle is inserted through the vagina and with the assistance of

Introduction This paper is a case study that corresponds to a case study of Medi-Cult, a biotech company based in Denmark which has developed new alternative to In Vitro Fertilization (IVF) called In Vitro Maturation (IVM). The IVM reduces maturity of egg from 30 to 2 days and due to its harmone free treatment it has psychological and physical side effects. Sources of economic value for IVM vs IVF, pricing and consumers are discussed in the case study questions below. What are the sources of economic
