Kristin Beltaos Comments on IVFPredict.com

Kristin Beltaos, M.A., life coach and owner of A Gift of Miles comments on IVFPredict.com, a nine-question calculator that claims to predict a woman's likelihood in having a successful In-Vitro Fertilization (IVF) cycle. Kristin believes that conceiving a child is more than just statistics, it's about the possibility, not probability that matters.

"People beat the odds everyday, people beat cancer, people have their MS go into remission and people who struggle with infertility have babies. I would much rather leave all the statistics to the racetrack and Vegas. While it is human nature to grasp onto statistics to help predict the chance of something happening for us, in many ways being too married to these numbers has an adverse effect on our psyche, stress. In turn, this stress has an adverse effect on our body. Mind stress plus body stress does not foster a good environment for conception.

In the end, can you really summarize your fertility in nine questions? I think not, IVFPredict.com does not take into account male factor infertility or ovarian dysfunction challenges like elevated Follicle Stimulating Hormone (FSH) or Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS). I believe every month is a chance, a chance to conceive."
