IVF 'triples chances of a baby with cerebral palsy' - Your News

from Ananova

 

 

> Fertility treatment can triple the chances of a child being born with

cerebral palsy, a major new study shows.

>

> Doctors in Sweden compared the incidence rate of neurological problems in

5,680 children born after in-vitro fertilisation treatment, and 11,360

children conceived naturally.

>

> They found that IVF children were about three times more likely to have

cerebral palsy. However, twins born after IVF were no more at risk than

twins in the general population, indicating a link with multiple

pregnancies.
