Jharkhand's IVF Boom: Age No Barrier to Parenthood
18 Jan
Summary
- IVF centers are now common across Jharkhand, breaking down old taboos.
- Delayed marriages and lifestyle changes contribute to rising infertility.
- IVF treatments cost between Rs 1-1.5 lakh, with EMI options available.
IVF centers have become widespread throughout Jharkhand, marking a significant shift from a time when fertility treatments were taboo. This rise reflects changing societal aspirations and a decline in traditional social stigmas surrounding infertility.
The increasing acceptance of IVF coincides with a worrying trend of rising infertility rates across various age groups. Factors such as altered lifestyles, increased consumption of unhealthy foods, and habits like smoking and drinking contribute to this decline in fertility for both men and women.
While IVF offers hope, it presents a financial burden, with each procedure costing approximately Rs 1-1.5 lakh. Despite a 20-30% chance of failure, the availability of EMI facilities makes these life-changing treatments more accessible to couples.
