Is IVF in Courtney Cox Arquette’s Future?

Monday, March 22nd, 2010

cribCourtney Cox Arquette gave birth to her daughter, Coco, in 2004 thanks to help she received from IVF treatments.

Now, Cox Arquette has announced that she’s ready to have another child and would be willing to again undergo IVF to achieve her goals of a larger family.

Cox Arquette is 45, and as our last post on Desperate Housewives star Marcia Cross notes, a woman in her mid-40s may not have the eggs necessary for IVF to succeed.  In that case, egg donation is often considered.  (Or, in the case of Sarah Jessica Parker, surrogacy.)

We wish Cox Arquette and her family much success regardless of which way they decide to go with this personal issue.

    The news was announced earlier this week — Sarah Jessica Parker and Matthew Broderick’s surrogate gave birth to the couple’s twins.  It brought surrogacy in the news, but what many people don’t realize is that having a surrogate give birth to their children isn’t just for Hollywood’s elite.

    In fact, surrogacy can be an effective solution for couples struggling with infertility problems.  In some cases, it greatly minimizes the stress of continuing with fertility treatments that might not be working.  Consequently, surrogacy shouldn’t be ignored; it’s been and continues to be a viable way to have a baby for numerous men and women.

    Our congratulations to SJP and MB!

    Fertility Issues after Giving Birth

    Wednesday, June 10th, 2009

    tn_img_6027A recent article from the UK’s Birmingham Post did an excellent job of explaining why women who have been able to conceive naturally without fertility treatments may one day find themselves dealing with infertility.

    In the story, the author discusses the experiences of Sarah Jessica Parker, the Hollywood star who recently  discovered that she was no longer able to become pregnant even though she had conceived without problems previously. 

    The phenomenon, “secondary infertility,” can happen for a number of reasons including the age of the woman, a switch in partners and potential medical problems.  Regardless of the “whys”, it can still be a devastating experience for any couple who assumed they would be able to naturally conceive.

    The upshot, though, is that there are alternatives for women who want to have children, including fertility treatments.  Although becoming pregnant may take a bit longer than expected, in many cases, it can still be a reality.
