Baby Conceived by using Viagra turns 10
Ten years ago the “Sher Institute for Reproductive Medicine” was able to assist a woman in conceiving a baby through IVF that contained Sildenafil, which is the active ingredient in Viagra. This process was used to aid embryo implantation. The technique was discovered and developed by the Sher institute and it works by using Sildenafil as a suppository which is administered during the In Vitro Fertilization before the embryos are transferred to the woman’s uterus.
But why would Sildenafil be used on a woman?
For a man it helps increase the blood flow, allowing the erection to become stronger and last long enough for sexual stimulation. For women it helps in a similar way, by increasing blood flow but to the uterus which helps thicken a woman’s uterine lining. This way the embryos can implant and develop into a very healthy pregnancy.
The babies mother “Rene” had been trying to conceive for years with no success and many failed treatments at other fertility clinics. She was even told that should might never be able to carry her own child and hope could be lost. The doctor who treated Rene mentioned the reason for her discovery
“Viagra has the ability to increase blood flow to the male organ, logically that it could do the same for women”
Through the treatment that was given to her by using sildenafil Viagra, Rene was able to conceive her own child and this year the child turns ten. They now have two kids that they quoted being their “Viagra Children”. Since this discovery many other clinics have adopted it as well.
