The Lived Experience of Women Who Quit Assisted Reproductive Technology Without the Birth of a Live Child and Remained Childless THE LIVED EXPERIENCE OF WOMEN WHO QUIT ASSISTED REPRODUCTIVE TECHNOLOGY WITHOUT THE BIRTH OF A LIVE CHILD AND REMAINED CHILDLESS A dissertation Presented to the faculty of the School of Nursing Adelphi University In Partial Fulfillment Of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy by Linda Millenbach May 2001 Reproduced with permission of the copyright owner.

Abstract The purpose of this study was to describe the experience of women who quit assisted reproductive technology (ART) without the birth of a live child and remained childless. The review of the literature revealed that infertility has increased and is projected to increase in the future. Infertility has become a medical condition with ART as its cure. ART has made infertility a matter of choice. The decision to stop ART was reported to be not a failure of the reproductive physiology but a failure of personal will A cultural expectation for women to be mothers and a cultural stigma for women who are childless exist. Social and medical pressure is reported to be present to continue ART. There have not been any studies that examined how women quit ART and remained childless in a culture that does not value quitting, values motherhood, stigmatizes women who were childless, and deems technology as the cure for infertility. The research question of this study was “What is the lived experience of women who quit assisted reproductive technology without the birth of a live child and remained childless?” A descriptive phenomenological methodology was chosen to describe this experience. The sample consisted of 12 Caucasian, middle-class working women who lived in the eastern region of the United States and stopped ART between 1990 and 2000. These women were purposefully sampled. Interviews were audiotaped and transcribed by the researcher. Collaizzi’s (1978) method of phenomenological analysis was used and nine themes emerged from that data. The themes for women who stopped ART without the birth of a live child and remained childless were that they; (I) had rational reasons for stopping ART, (2) had caring expectations of health care workers, (3) developed various methods of control over ART, (4) created a new life without their own biological Reproduced with permission of the copyright owner.

This study had nine findings that had not been reported in the literature. These findings were women: (1) made the rational choice to stop ART based on rational reasons, (2) believed that worse things could have happened to them besides infertility, (3) had caring expectations of health care workers, (4) had their expectations met if they were “insiders,” (5) could have had their expectations of health care workers met if the health care worker practiced Peplau’s (1952) theory of nursing, (6) perceived their inability to create a legacy as a biological failure, (7) did not perceive themselves as a failure because they could not have a child, (8) found the use of online chat rooms to contact other women who did ART valuable, and (9) had to deal with the assumption that they would do whatever was necessary to have a child including having a child without their husband. The women in this study were very much in control of the decision to quit ART. They did not see themselves as quitters but as women who made a rational choice to stop ART based on rational reasons. They made the decision to stop infertility treatment with or without the support of their health care workers, who frequently wanted them to continue treatment.

Dedication This study is dedicated to the women who were willing to tell their stories about the experience of quitting assisted reproductive technology without the birth of a live child and remaining childless. It is hoped that this study based on their stories will help to educate the public, healthcare workers, and other women who are experiencing assisted reproductive technology.

  • The Role of a Midwife in Assisted Reproductive Units
    Clinical Obstetrics, Gynecology and Reproductive Medicine Research Article ISSN: 2059-4828 The role of a midwife in assisted reproductive units O Tsonis1, F Gkrozou2*, V Siafaka3 and M Paschopoulos1 1Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, University Hospital of Ioannina, Greece 2Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, university Hospitals of Birmingham, UK 3Department of Speech and Language Therapy, School of Health Sciences, University of Ioannina, Greece Abstract Problem: The role of midwifery in Assisted Reproductive Units remains unclear. Background: Midwives are valuable health workers in every field or phase of women’s health. Their true value has been consistently demonstrated and regards mainly their function in labour. Infertility is a quite new territory in which a great deal of innovating approaches has been made through the years. Aim: The aim of this study is to present the role of midwifery in Assisted Reproductive Units based on scientific data Methods: For this review 3 (three) major search engines were included MEDLINE, PubMed and EMBASE focusing on the role of midwives in the assisted reproductive units. Findings: It seems that midwives have three distinct roles, when it comes to emotional management of the infertile couple, being the representative of the infertile couple and also, performing assisted reproductive techniques in some cases. Their psychomedical support is profound and, in this review, we try to research their potential role in the assisted reproductive units. Discussion: In the literature, only few scientific articles have been conducted in search of the role of Midwifery in Infertility. Their importance is once again undeniable and further research needs to be conducted in order to increase their adequate participation into this medical field.

  • Reproductive Technology in Germany and the United States: an Essay in Comparative Law and Bioethics
    ROBERTSON - REVISED FINAL PRINT VERSION.DOC 12/02/04 6:55 PM Reproductive Technology in Germany and the United States: An Essay in Comparative Law and Bioethics * JOHN A. ROBERTSON The development of assisted reproductive and genetic screening technologies has produced intense ethical, legal, and policy conflicts in many countries. This Article surveys the German and U.S. experience with abortion, assisted reproduction, embryonic stem cell research, therapeutic cloning, and preimplantation genetic diagnosis. This exercise in comparative bioethics shows that although there is a wide degree of overlap in many areas, important policy differences, especially over embryo and fetal status, directly affect infertile and at-risk couples. This Article analyzes those differences and their likely impact on future reception of biotechnological innovation in each country.

  • Statement on Unassisted Birth Attended by a Doula
    Statement On Unassisted Birth Attended by a Doula _______________________________________________________ Definition Unassisted childbirth – the process of intentionally giving birth without the assistance of a medical or professional birth attendant – is a decision made by a very small percentage of parents. DONA International certified and member doulas provide physical, informational and emotional support. Any type of medical or clinical assistance is outside the scope of practice agreed upon by DONA International certified and member doulas. DONA International opines herein on the considerations a doula must make when accepting clients planning an unassisted birth. Introduction Unassisted childbirth (UC) refers to the process of intentionally giving birth without the assistance of a medical or professional birth attendant. UC is also sometimes referred to as free birth, DIY (do-it-yourself) birth, unhindered birth and couples birth. In response to the recent growth in interest over UC, several national medical societies, including the Society of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists of Canadai, the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologistsii, and the Royal Australian and New Zealand College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologistsiii, have issued strongly worded public statements warning against the practice. Professional midwives' associations, including the Royal College of Midwivesiv and the American College of Nurse-Midwivesv also caution against UC. Those who promote UCvi claim the practice offers mothers-to-be a natural way of welcoming their child into the world, free from drugs, machinery and medical intervention. They also note that UC allows a woman to listen to her body's signals rather than coaching from an outsider. The women who are choosing UC may do so because they do not feel supported and respected in the obstetrical care facilities available in their areas, or they are unable to afford or obtain home midwifery or physician support, which is more in line with their philosophies.

  • Religious Aspects of Assisted Reproduction
    FACTS VIEWS VIS OBGYN, 2016, 8 (1): 33-48 Review Religious aspects of assisted reproduction H.N. SALLAM1,2, N.H. SALLAM2 Department of 1Obstetrics and Gynaecology and Alexandria Fertility and 2IVF Center, Alexandria, Egypt. Correspondence at: [email protected] or [email protected] Abstract Human response to new developments regarding birth, death, marriage and divorce is largely shaped by religious beliefs. When assisted reproduction was introduced into medical practice in the last quarter of the twentieth century, it was fiercely attacked by some religious groups and highly welcomed by others. Today, assisted reproduction is accepted in nearly all its forms by Judaism, Hinduism and Buddhism, although most Orthodox Jews refuse third party involvement. On the contrary assisted reproduction is totally unacceptable to Roman Catholicism, while Protestants, Anglicans, Coptic Christians and Sunni Muslims accept most of its forms, which do not involve gamete or embryo donation. Orthodox Christians are less strict than Catholic Christians but still refuse third party involvement. Interestingly, in contrast to Sunni Islam, Shi’a Islam accepts gamete donation and has made provisions to institutionalize it. Chinese culture is strongly influenced by Confucianism, which accepts all forms of assisted reproduction that do not involve third parties. Other communities follow the law of the land, which is usually dictated by the religious group(s) that make(s) the majority of that specific community. The debate will certainly continue as long as new developments arise in the ever-evolving field of assisted reproduction. Key words: Assisted reproduction, Buddhism, Christianity, Hinduism, Islam, ICSI, IVF, Judaism, religion, religious aspects. Introduction birth, death, marriage or divorce.

  • Consensus Statement: Alcohol and Pregnancy
    Consensus Statement: Alcohol and Pregnancy The New Zealand College of Midwives recognises that there is no known safe level of alcohol consumption at any stage of pregnancy. Therefore parents planning a pregnancy and women who are pregnant should be advised not to drink alcohol. Rationale: • Women’s drinking does not happen in isolation. It is shaped by their social, environmental and cultural context. In New Zealand, this context includes the normalisation of alcohol consumption within our culture, particularly at social events. 1,4 • Alcohol passes freely through the placenta and reaches concentrations in the fetus that are as high as those in the mother. 1,2,3 • Alcohol is a teratogen – a substance that may affect the development of a fetus. 1,2, 3 • Drinking alcohol during pregnancy can cause the baby to be born with a range of alcohol-related birth impairments known as Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder (FASD) 1,2,4. o FASD is an umbrella term for a range of lifelong physical, cognitive and behavioral impairments of varying severity including Fetal Alcohol Syndrome (FAS). • Drinking alcohol during pregnancy also increases the risks of miscarriage, prematurity and stillbirth. • Risk of alcohol harm to the fetus is proportional to the amount of alcohol consumed. Damage to the fetus is more likely to occur with high blood alcohol levels. 1,3,4 • There is no known safe level of alcohol consumption during pregnancy 1,3,4 • There is no known safe time to drink alcohol during pregnancy. 1,2,4 Practice Guidance: Midwives have a role in advising women against alcohol consumption during pregnancy, explaining the potential consequences and supporting women to address their alcohol use during pregnancy.

If you decide to plan a home birth, your community midwife should support you in your choice and help you prepare for your birth (NHS, 2017). During a home birth, a community midwife will come to your home to look after you during labour and for a short while after the birth of your baby. There are community midwives on call 24 hours, so the midwife will come to your home to assess you when you think you are in labour (NHS, 2017).

  • Outcome of Assisted Reproductive Technology in Men with Treated and Untreated Varicocele: Systematic Male Fertility Review and Meta‑Analysis
    Asian Journal of Andrology (2016) 18, 254–258 © 2016 AJA, SIMM & SJTU. All rights reserved 1008-682X www.asiaandro.com; www.ajandrology.com Open Access INVITED REVIEW Outcome of assisted reproductive technology in men with treated and untreated varicocele: systematic Male Fertility review and meta‑analysis Sandro C Esteves1, Matheus Roque2, Ashok Agarwal3 Varicocele affects approximately 35%–40% of men presenting for an infertility evaluation. There is fair evidence indicating that surgical repair of clinical varicocele improves semen parameters, decreases seminal oxidative stress and sperm DNA fragmentation, and increases the chances of natural conception. However, it is unclear whether performing varicocelectomy in men with clinical varicocele prior to assisted reproductive technology (ART) improve treatment outcomes. The objective of this study was to evaluate the role of varicocelectomy on ART pregnancy outcomes in nonazoospermic infertile men with clinical varicocele. An electronic search was performed to collect all evidence that fitted our eligibility criteria using the MEDLINE and EMBASE databases until April 2015. Four retrospective studies were included, all of which involved intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI), and accounted for 870 cycles (438 subjected to ICSI with prior varicocelectomy, and 432 without prior varicocelectomy). There was a significant increase in the clinical pregnancy rates (OR = 1.59, 95% CI: 1.19–2.12, I 2 = 25%) and live birth rates (OR = 2.17, 95% CI: 1.55–3.06, I 2 = 0%) in the varicocelectomy group compared to the group subjected to ICSI without previous varicocelectomy. Our results indicate that performing varicocelectomy in patients with clinical varicocele prior to ICSI is associated with improved pregnancy outcomes.
