Missing Embryos

A couple longing for children, a renowned IVF clinic, and fertility specialists striving for international recognition: from these intertwined threads, Dr. Widad Akreyi, multiple award-winner in the USA and Europe, delivers a heart-pounding tale of love, loss, and the blurred lines between right and wrong-unbridled and bursting with significance. Since Louise Joy Brown, the world's first IVF baby, was born in 1978, the use of IVF to treat infertility has steadily increased, leading to the birth of over 12 million children globally. Driven by its undeniable necessity, IVF has evolved into a thriving business with promising future prospects. Politically, it has garnered attention, with the title "father of IVF" frequently mentioned, prompting questions about its potential to become the next frontier in politics. Socially, most of us know someone who has been affected by infertility. Data reveals a concerning decline in sperm counts, with a drop of over 50 percent, which is now accelerating, raising fears of a possible infertility pandemic. Sandy and Ronney are all too familiar with this pandemic. They have been trying to conceive naturally for years. After exhausting all their options, they resort to IVF, facing the risks and ethical dilemmas associated with it. Often overlooked or downplayed, these include embryo destruction, embryo misplacement, and the birth of babies intended for specific families to others. Candidly and compellingly written, Missing Embryos is a true story that embodies the captivating strength of the human spirit and the indomitable power of resilience.
