If you’re scared of IVF, you’re not weak.
You’re reacting to myths passed around by relatives, Google searches, and half-stories not medical facts.
Let’s break what’s actually stopping you
MYTH 1: IVF guarantees pregnancy
REALITY: IVF improves the chance, not the guarantee.
Success depends on age, egg & s***m quality, embryo development, uterine health, and correct protocol. Honest counselling matters more than false hope.
MYTH 2: IVF babies are unhealthy or ‘not natural’
REALITY: IVF only helps fertilisation happen outside the body.
Once pregnancy begins, everything else happens naturally growth, development, and delivery.
MYTH 3: IVF is extremely painful and dangerous
REALITY: Most procedures are minimally invasive, carefully monitored, and medically safe when done by trained specialists.
MYTH 4: IVF is only the woman’s responsibility
REALITY: Nearly 40–50% infertility cases involve male factors yet women often carry the emotional burden alone.
MYTH 5: IVF should always be the last option
REALITY: Delaying IVF when it is medically advised can actually reduce success, especially with increasing age and declining egg quality.
The biggest myth of all?
That avoiding IVF protects you.
Sometimes, waiting because of fear costs more than starting with clarity emotionally, physically, and financially.
IVF is not a shortcut.
It is science, planning, and personalised care meant for the right patient, at the right time.
Save this reel for later.
Share it with someone delaying treatment because of fear, not facts.
