PAA Almost half of Australian women believe that if they need IVF treatment, they've failed. Nearly one in two Australian women believes there's a common perception that you have "failed" if you seek IVF treatment, according to a survey. Despite an increasing number of babies being born from fertility procedures each year - currently about 12,000 - research by fertility clinic Bump found 85 per cent of women feel there's a social stigma associated with having in vitro fertilisation treatment. Nearly half of the 1007 women aged 25 to 44 surveyed say this is due to the perception that undergoing IVF treatment means you have "failed". Added to this, 32 per cent believe the stigma is because women can feel responsible and guilty even when it's their partner who has the fertility problem. Anne-Marie Pickard, 46, who had her son five years ago through IVF, said she can understand why many couples, and women in particular, would feel they've failed if they need IVF. "There's probably a little bit in my subconscious brain that feels that I failed because I didn't fall pregnant naturally," Ms Pickard said. "But consciously I know that's not the case." Ms Pickard says she has … Continue reading →

Donna Turner is one step closer to fulfilling her late husband's dying wish[INS ] New bride, Donna Turner, 32, was left distraught after her local NHS refused to carry out the 3,500 IVF treatment to fulfil her late husband Paul's dying wish because it would make her a single parent. Mr Turner died from bowel cancer in January 2013, aged 39, just eight months after the couple married. Now good samaritan William Brady has written a 500 cheque to help Mrs Turner get one step closer to raising the cash to have it done privately. The father-of-two from Addlestone in Surrey, said: "I'm just a sincere well-wisher. "I love my kids so much and I think this lady should have a chance of having that happiness.

"They were absolutely brilliant to me, I can't speak highly enough of the staff. "But I am disgusted at some of the cases where … Continue reading →
