New hope for miscarriage many times
The UK has just welcomed the first baby in the world to be conceived with the help of a new "egg" technique. This success opens up the hope of having children for women who have failed many times with artificial insemination.
Baby Oliver has just been born as a child of a 41-year-old woman, 13 times failed with the technique of artificial insemination (IVF).
So far, cases of artificial insemination have failed often because eggs contain a chromosome. With the new " scintillation " technique, doctors will quickly analyze the genetic material in fertilized eggs, to find chromosomal defects, remove damaged eggs if needed. This technique both increases the ability to conceive and reduces the rate of birth defects in young children.
According to DailyMail, the above " microscopic " egg technique is thought to double women's ability to conceive. On the BBC, the British Reproduction Association said the technique was promising, but more research was needed.

Professor Simon Fishel, head of the research team, said the birth of Oliver showed that this test could help couples to conceive, after failing several times with IVF.
" Up to half of eggs in young women and up to 75% of eggs in women over 39 have chromosomal abnormalities. Oliver's birth is an important milestone in helping us better understand at Why are so many women so hard to get pregnant? "
Two years ago, American scientists once reported 18 women who gave birth after being " scanned " with a similar technique. However, in such cases the embryos produced must be frozen and re-implanted later.
But with the recent work of British scientists, people can know the results after 24 hours, so mothers can do IVF within the treatment cycle without waiting.
