Research is beginning to come in on how infertility treatment affects the health of the children conceived. Does in vitro fertilization (IVF) or ICSI or artificial insemination cause birth defects, autism, nuero-developmental issues? Is freezing harmful to the children born from frozen embryos? Does Clomid cause harm to the babies? Our guest to help us sort out the often confusing results of this research is Dr.Thomas Molinaro, a reproductive endocrinologist with Reproductive Medicine Associates of New Jersey and a researcher into the health effects of fertility treatment.Blog summary of the show and highlights can be found here:Blog summary of the showHighlights More Creating a Family resources on infertility can be found here.<a rel="payment" href="https://creatingafamily.org/donation/">Support the show</a><p>Please leave us a rating or review <a href='https://ratethispodcast.com/creatingafamily'>RateThisPodcast.com/<b>creatingafamily</b></a></p>
