Protection from Coronavirus in Pregnancy
A few days ago, the British Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists, in collaboration with the Royal Academy of Midwives and the Royal Academy of Pediatrics, gave pregnant women guidance on the necessary protection measures against Covid-19 coronavirus. Thus, during pregnancy, women must abide by all the hygiene and proprietary rules applicable to the general population.
The miracle of life! The miracle of natural childbirth, the power of nature! Nine months of anxiety until the happy parents can finally hug their baby.
For the parents, the whole process is filled with anxiety, but for the baby, it’s a completely different environment. Its mom's warm and welcoming womb that was the ideal place for its growth.
2019 has been a great year.
Seeing the happiness and joy of a new born baby in so many faces made 2019 a year to remember.
Your heartfelt delight made all the burden of our work worthwhile.
Thank you for letting me be a part of this.
May 2020 be another extraordinary year for everyone!
Let us all remember children are the greatest blessings.

It is a fact that pictures of happy and perfect babies that tend to flood the web and social media, can cause anxiety and adversely affect the psychology of women that are trying to conceive.
Like all medical practices and treatments, the process of IVF can also involve some health risks. What is important, however, for a couple who needs to proceed to IVF in order to have a child, is to be properly informed, and not postpone or fear the process for the wrong reasons. The gynecologist - obstetrician and IVF specialist, director of the Assisted Reproduction Center EmBIO, Dr. Thanos Paraschos, explains that any dangers can be minimized by the means that exist today. But what are those risks? We asked him and he responded.

Among tourists, Greece is popular for its natural beauties, spectacular islands, passionate people, Mediterranean food and ancient history.
During the last few years, a new “attraction” has developed, this time coming from the healthcare sector. The infertility treatment sector has become the leading medical sector among all other medical practices and attracts thousands of infertile couples every year to Greece from all over the world.
Multiple biological factors associated with the potential of oocytes and/or spermatozoa may make natural fertilization very difficult. If you have already tried to conceive with other, milder assisted reproduction methods such as ovulation induction or insemination and did not succeed, you can resort to In Vitro Fertilisation to have a healthy child.
Just a few decades ago, a woman approaching her 50s was considered to be a woman at the end of her reproductive life, more likely to be a grandmother than a mother – the reality of modern life has broken this cliché!
In a mother’s womb were two babies. One asked the other: “Do you believe in life after delivery?” The other replied, “Why, of course. There has to be something after delivery. Maybe we are here to prepare ourselves for what we will be later.”
“Nonsense” said the first. “There is no life after delivery. What kind of life would that be?”
The second said, “I don’t know, but there will be more light than here. Maybe we will walk with our legs and eat from our mouths. Maybe we will have other senses that we can’t understand now.”
The story is about a young woman who recently managed to give birth to a perfectly healthy baby without any prior assisted reproduction treatment whatsoever, even after having undergone both chemotherapy and bone marrow transplantation due to sickle cell anaemia during her teenage years.
MedWire News: Study findings suggest that infertile men show an increase in sperm concentration and diploidy, as well as a decline in semen volume and sperm vitality with increasing age.
The findings also showed that increasing age does not affect sperm DNA fragmentation in infertile men, and that all sperm parameters remain unaffected by age in fertile men.
