HelpRe: Woman Gives Birth to Three Sets of Twins in Five Years!
in reply to a message by RoxStar
Finally, someone else who feels the exact same way as I do on this topic!
IVF & Sturgancies (ugh, spelling) make me feel as though the babies are more of a product rather than a human being. I don't get why people can't just conceive a child naturally or adopt. That's how I feel.

This is an exceptionally ignorant point of view, btw.

?? People specifically go through IVF because they physically can't "just conceive a child naturally". It's not, like, for fun, to spend thousands of dollars on an invasive surgery.

Exactly.
And adoption is not exactly a walk in the park either.
And in some countries it's basically not even an option at all.

Adoption is a HUGE industry. It costs a lot of money to adopt an infant. How is that any less making a product of a baby than IVF?
Not to mention that growing a family thru adoption (especially infant domestic adoptions) are at the pain of the childs birth family who may have been pressured into placing into the first and then has no guarantee of an open adoption actually staying open. Where as IVF doesnt hurt the birth family in the same way adoption could. Not to mention, there are plenty of studies that suggest adoptees struggle more in their adult life and many wish they were never adopted.

It seems to me that IVF is for couples who are unable to conceive naturally, in which case, why would somebody go through it for somebody else if not for pure profit? Makes me think their fertility clinic plays pretty fast and loose when accepting patients.

IVF is often used for surrogate pregnancies. Assn egg from the mother and sperm for the father are used, allowing them to have a biological child. This method is often used with gay men, although in that case the woman's eggs are used.
Some women can conceive but not be able to carry the child for whatever reason.
