But you know, at the end of the day, I’m still very grateful,” she said in a September 2 vlog. As of writing, the couple has yet to address the rumors. Nevertheless, Heart said that her journey made her realize the importance of women taking control over their own bodies: “I feel that this alone is changing me as a person. Heart also encouraged other women to also consider the same process. “Am I ready for a child?

A cycle of IVF is the process of ovarian egg retrieval, fertilization, observing and selecting a viable embryo for transfer, and finally transferring the embryo in hopes of implantation. AI’s ability to analyze big data paves the way for improving IVF outcomes and the development of evidence-based parameters that establish a consistent standard of care. However, with the introduction of time-lapse monitoring systems to the IVF lab, there is an opportunity to leverage new computer vision and AI technology that can capture images at almost any developmental stage of an embryo and assess additional developmental details that are not obtainable by the human eye. A major driver of this statistical stagnation is the lack of standardization of practice in the field. IVF is dependent on the field of embryology. Understanding the delicate factors involved, IVF practitioners aspire to be the source of encouragement to prospective parents in the face of this overwhelming challenge.

So I think the general challenge to the rights of same-sex couples and LGBTQ+ persons that Justice Thomas’s concurrence poses indicates some real questions about surrogacy going forward. In this particular case, it’s the creation of an embryo outside of the body and then implantation into the surrogate. The people who created those embryos are then in this weird position where they either have to donate them and have them implanted in other people to yield a pregnancy, essentially procreating against their will, or they destroy the embryos, which often happens. “Selective reduction” is what they call it in assisted reproductive technology, but it is essentially an abortion—removing one of the embryos in utero so that the other embryos have a better chance of resulting in a healthy pregnancy and delivery. When you lose a pregnancy, the typical treatment is to remove the failed pregnancy from the uterus if it isn't spontaneously expelled by the body—and that is technically an abortion. How could the Dobbs decision impact LGBTQ+ people using a surrogate to carry their baby? It may suggest that there is going to be lot of selective enforcement of abortion law. The majority really didn't grapple with this at all, which was unfortunate, because obviously returning abortion to the states—where states are free to either permit abortion access or to constrain it—has real implications for ART and especially in vitro fertilization, in large part because part of the process of IVF often requires eliminating excess embryos. Some states have said that these two things [abortion and selective reduction in IVF] are very different and distinct, but I find it hard to draw that line. That number has doubled over the past decade, as couples struggling with infertility as well as same-sex couples have explored greater options and opportunities for childbirth. Jackson Women’s Health Organization, which eliminated federal protection of the right to an abortion, a slew of new questions about Americans’ reproductive rights have emerged. Among them: will in vitro fertilization (IVF) and similar assisted reproductive technologies like surrogacy and donor assisted conception remain legal and available to all Americans?

The future of IVF and surrogacy are uncertain after the Dobbs decision that overturned Roe v. Wade, says legal scholar Melissa Murray.

[bill](https://search-prod.lis.state.oh.us/solarapi/v1/general_assembly_134/bills/hb704/IN/00/hb704_00_IN?format=pdf) that would recognize “personhood” at the moment of conception—which would impact common IVF practices. “It was written in such a way that it’s been interpreted as: everything we do in our world—fertilizing eggs outside the body, for various reasons—happens before [implantation] and so for us, it’s been more or less business as usual.” “The Personhood Act affirms what our founders declared, and science has discovered: A person is a person from the moment a new human being is created,” Click wrote [in a statement](https://ohiohouse.gov/members/gary-click/news/click-introduces-legislation-to-declare-personhood-from-the-moment-of-conception-111031) announcing the bill. “I do think that as people understand better what IVF does—even people who are engaged in the process of IVF sometimes don’t understand the implications of it—that we will turn away from this creation and freezing of hundreds of thousands of distinct individual human beings who remain in limbo forever or are ultimately cast off as if the trash,” he said. “I admit it is an unusual question for someone who struggled to have children and wants children to ask the question ‘can I discard my embryos’ but I hope this answers your questions,” he added vaguely, likely because the Tennessee law does not clearly encompass IVF. In regards to IVF, you know, the concern is if they use the word fertilization versus if they are using the word conception.” “This is the whole point of the movement.” “What term are they using, and do they even know what the term means? “Everyone that is following this battle definitely thinks personhood is the ultimate goal—defining fetal personhood at conception seems to be the goal,” Seema Mohapatra, a health and ethics professor at Southern Methodist University’s Dedman School of Law, said.
