Doctor Segment - "INFERTILITY"

There is,I believe,no stronger stress in a couple's life than their continued longing for a child.This teaching will be of vital importance to those couples whose fondest wish-the conception of a child-has,to this point,been denied.

A psychological evaluation of infertile couples released in 1990 showed that 50 percent of the women and 15 percent of the men felt their infertility was the most upsetting experience they had ever had.

The emotions stirred by childlessness run strong and deep.They always have.Hannah,mother of the biblical prophet Samuel,remained infertile year after year despite intense longing for a child.The anguish shared by Hannah and her husband,Elkanah,mirrors the heartache of thousands.

"Hannah,"Elkanah entreats tenderly,"why are you weeping?Why don't you eat?Why are you downhearted?Don"t I mean more to you than ten sons?"(1Sam.1:8).Poor Elkanah.He was only trying to help.In fact,he was hurting as much as she was.

This particular story had a happy ending.Hannah steadfastly continued to approach God with her problem,going year after year to the temple to pray for a child.Eventually God answered her prayer,blessing Hannah and Elkanah with a son.

Unfortunately not all infertility stories have the same happy ending.Not everyone who wants a child will have one.However,exciting new advance in the treatment of infertility make it possible for an achieve pregnancy

I strongly encourage any infertile couple to pray,as did Hannah and Elkanah,asking God to grant the desire of their hearts for a child.In the final analysis,l believe that it is God who opens and closes the womb;it is God who makes the final decision about pregnancy.

True,a couple may not conceive,but then God's wisdom must be respected and trusted.He is to be praised no matter what-because every aspect of his plan for us in our best interest.

God has made it possible for us to develop new understanding and treatment for the causes of infertility.Those with infertility problems have at their disposal some of the most modern and up-to-date medical care available in any field of medicine.All this technology gives you a fighting chance of achieving pregnancy.

Every year new tests and treatments are being developed.The techniques of microsurgery have brought fertility to thousands of people during the past twenty years;and the laparoscope,metrodin,and in vitro fertilization (test-tube babies) bring realistic hope of fertility to thousands today.

This are some of the most question am being ask most frequently by infertile couples.
