Complications related to in vitro reproductive techniques support the implementation of natural procreative technologies.

ABSTRACT:

Background and aim

Infertility affects ~20% of the couples in the world. Assisted reproductive technologies (ARTs) are currently the most common treatment option for infertility. Nevertheless, ARTs may be associated with complications for mothers and/or offspring. Natural procreative technology (NaProTechnology) is a natural treatment which minimizes these risks by seeking to identify the causes of infertility to enable better treatments. This narrative review summarizes the complications related to ARTs and clarifies how the NaProTechnology approach can help ARTs to achieve better results or be used in alternative to ARTs.

Methods

Data in the literature indicate that NaProTechnology is a natural approach for treating infertility.

Results
