The first American baby was born from frozen sperm and eggs

On April 12, the first baby boy in the US to receive sperm and egg sperm was born at Saddleback Memorial Medical Center Hospital, Laguna Hills City (California, USA).

Baby weighs about 3.8kg, 52cm tall, named Noah Peter Domasin. The combination of both frozen and frozen sperms like this is rare, while so far around the world there are about 200 babies born from frozen eggs.

Two years ago, Adrienne Domasin, 36, who was single at Mission Viejo (in Orange County), knew she had a fallopian tube, so she decided to apply frozen sperm fertilization and frozen eggs. Extend Fertility Company implemented. The doctors used the method of stimulating the ovulation, then frozen her 11 eggs for four months and then injected into the thawing sperm cell, and implanted the fertilized egg into her uterus.

According to Professor Richard Paulson of the University of Southern California (USC), the method of artificial insemination from frozen sperm has been applied for decades, but fertilization from frozen eggs is very difficult, because frozen ice easily destroys the structure of eggs. There has only been one case of artificial insemination from frozen eggs and frozen sperm in Australia last year.
