BioSpace News: Infertility
- Fertility After Cancer
Radiation and chemotherapy treatments that
can save the lives of women with cancer also often
destroy their ovaries, making them infertile.
Researchers at The Jones Institute for Reproductive Medicine at
Eastern Virginia Medical School think they can help with ovarian
transplants. A clinical trial of the new
procedure was approved earlier this month.

- Fertility: New Findings On Fallopian Implants
A new study has found that, contrary to other
reports, two methods of in vitro fertilization have about the same
success rate. The study, by Dr. Steven Palter of the Yale
School of Medicine, found that transferring embryos into the fallopian tube was not significantly more successful
than implanting them in the uterus.

- Gene Connected To Female Infertility
Gene finding in mice may help explain some female infertility. A recently discovered gene is important
for letting embryos develop in mice, a study finds, and the
researchers say the work might shed light on unexplained infertility
in women. There's no direct evidence yet for any connection to women's
infertility, said researcher Dr. Lawrence Nelson of the National
Institute of Child Health and Human Development.
