Of course, doctors cannot do everything

Doctors are a boon for many. They prove to be greatly helpful to people at times of nearly miraculous and immediate healing. No wonder, they are regarded as Gods by many. However, the truth, no matter how bitter, is that doctors are NOT Gods! They may, at times, do the impossible by curing a seemingly incurable disease or managing it for the better, yet they are not capable of handling everything that their patients suffer from. The same goes with infertility treatments like IVF.

Even the most experienced IVF doctors from the top fertility centers in India admit that they do not hold the reigns of their patients’ condition completely. A majority of the handling of the disease is needed to be done by the patients themselves. According to them, patients need to perform a lot of roles when involved in a treatment such as IVF. For starters, they must make it a point to gather enough knowledge and information about their condition before even approaching a doctor. This helps them be prepared and ready for their treatment if one is required. In this way, they will be able to make their own decisions with ease. Also, patients have the tendency to listen to others and decide accordingly. They should avoid paying attention to what others state or tell them to do as it is the patients themselves and not these “others” going through infertility. Hence, no one can decide better for them then them themselves.
