Do IVF treatments cause cancer?

Fertility experts have long debated whether fertility treatments correlate with the risk of cancer. Some studies have associated an increased risk of ovarian cancer with certain fertility treatments. What is not known is whether the increase in the risk of cancer comes from the underlying cause of infertility for which you are seeking treatment in the first place. Or, whether it is related to the fertility drugs and the fertility treatments that have led to the increase in the ovarian cancer rate.

What an informative video it was. As i am going to start my IVF journey. I need to know each and every side effect o process. And i am sure there are so many people who are scared of these process. IVF is great process. But it has more negatives impacts on people than positive. The clear concepts should be delivered to people. So the people could choose the process wisely.

I do not really think that IVF and other such infertility treatments have anything to do with Cancer. I do not consider them to be of such harm. There is no radiation involved in this process if you thinking something like that.
