Embryo adoption is latest trend

Malathy Iyer writing in the Times of India: Dr Anjali Malpani, an infertility specialist who treated Bohanon, now performs about three to four embryo adoptions a month as opposed to the random annual procedure, which was the case until a few years back. Says Dr Malpani, ‘With availability of better infertility treatment techniques, embryo adoption/donation is becoming popular of late across the world.’ In the US alone, where embryo adoption is about a decade old, over 1,000 babies have been born using this method.
