[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What's with all the hate for IVF? Because I can't get pregnant naturally I should just accept that? By that line of reasoning I should decline treatment for a cancer dx.  [/quote]

I realize that this may sound harsh, but a lot of people think of infertility as an evolutionary mechanism. I realize that isn't an emotionally acceptable idea for those struggling with infertility, but such evolutionary mechanisms are evident in all species. [/quote]

new poster here.  But then isn't any disease, especially cancer also an evolutionary mechanism?  Especially cancer in childhood and young adulthood.  [/quote]

Natural selection is a very slow, very gradual process, over thousands and thousands of years. There may very well be mechanisms already working within us to counter those diseases, and they may very well be a part of infertility. I know it doesn't make it easier to bear for those that wish to pass on their genes and have biological children, but infertility can serve a greater species purpose and benefit.

uhmm, ok, pps point still stands that childhood cancer is an evolutionary adaption as well. The children who die are serving the "the greater species purpose" as you so eloquently put it.[/quote]
