Frozen Embryos?

Does anybody know any children or adults that come from frozen embryos or any information regarding health problems Frozen E's can develop?


I have been an IVF consultant for 8 years and so have had the good fortune of being able to witness the development of individuals that started life as a frozen embryo.

Of course no one yet alive who stared life as a frozen embryo is older than about 22, since the first live child from a frozen embryo was only born in Australia in 1984.

But so far, so good. Studies confirm they are no more likely than the general population to experience health problems relative to their age and living conditions.

Since we are still only raising the first generation of frozen embryo babies then it cannot be confirmed whether, longer term, they will experience unique problems as they age. But even so, trying to keep track of this data may prove difficult since, because they are becoming more common, scientists are no longer studying them as closely as they used to. If an individual who started life as a frozen embryo goes into hospital for treatment, it isn't a standard question they will have to answer on their admission forms or anything.

As the generations of frozen embryo babies age, peculiar patterns or consistencies in their health may emerge, but for the moment, we have no evidence to support this may be the case.

frozen embryos?

isn't frozen embryos just humans frozen in time ready anytime to be born. then man is the real God.


Has anyone ever thought that just maybe that discovery could be divine intervention to help save human life. Look at all the discoveries we have had that save lives. We donate human organs after death do we not.


It's a crime and man can become god, but it will take evolution for that to happen


And that is very wrong.

Frozen embryos?

What proportion of them survive the thawing process? How many can develop into adults?

How long can they be frozen for before they are not viable?


An embryo only becomes an embryo when it is planted in the uterus. Fertilized Frozen Embryonic is the proper terminology. Embryonic meaning the potential to become an embryo. So people like to play the guilt trip on other people by calling it an embryo when it is still in a petrie dish. It cannot become a baby unless planted in the uterus. Frozen babies do not survive DAH!!!!!!!!!. FALSE information. Bush loves to play that card to people who do not know the meaning of the word. An IUD, used for birth control is an form of an embryonic process. . The IUD prevents the fertilized egg from planting itself in the uterus, so it cannot become a baby thus an embryo. An IUD is an embryonic process. The fertilized egg then passes as a monthly period. All those hyprocrites to the right to life should make IUD's illegal. DAH!!!!!!!!!! If they stick to their mission. DAH!!!!!!! Remember fertilized eggs in a petrie dish are NOT babies. They can ONLY become babies when planted in a warm uterus...Seeds you buy in a store, say, tomatoes are not tomatoes until they are planted.

Michigan Liberal::: GOP social policy: More concern for frozen ...

He's talking about the underlying idea that poor people should somehow be punished for going to other states to visit family members. Last week, when this came up, it merely took an anchor from a Tee Vee news station to mention vacation and Bridge Cards in the same sentence to set people's blood a-boiling (and unleash racism, in the form of comments like this: " "). Rick Jones is attempting to whip up a torch-and-pitchfork mob using it and exploiting its underlying ugliness. To make matters worse, the idea is being promoted by a media that buys into the idea that we have to suspect that poor people who received government assistance of some kind are all probably inherently dishonest.

You can't draw conclusions about someone based on the words and actions of another, but you can do so about groups of people based on the sum of their parts. I have no idea how deep Rick Jones' jihad against the Bridge Card goes in the GOP. One assumes that the Goat Killer is on board, since he supported legislation last year that as written would have literally starved shut-ins and disabled people to death. And, we know that this year he's okay with taking away clothing allowances from orphans and other poor kids (fortunately, the stigmatizing idea that we'd confine spending what they do get at thrift stores was reversed).

The GOP majority in the House passed along mostly party lines (except swing district representatives), and one of the more boisterous voices in the Senate wants to punish poor people for enjoying themselves. And, the House is trying to push homosexuals back into the closet because the Goat Killer finds them to be immoral (I find in the act of flying half way around the world to shoot herbivores tinged with the enjoyment of killing and not sport, which I find immoral ... but that's just me). Is there anyone that the GOP places a premium on helping (besides business activity)? Why, yes .

I'm sorry to say that my own representative supports this, but I'm not surprised since he said back last year that "we're" going to take another look at stem cell research (by "we're," I presume he meant the editorial he).
