Infertility in Females01:28

Infertility in Females

3.6K
Female infertility is defined as the inability to conceive after a year of regular, unprotected intercourse and affects about 10–15% of couples worldwide. The primary cause of female infertility is ovulatory disorders, which hinder the release of eggs. These disorders can be classified as hypothalamic amenorrhea, polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS), premature ovarian failure, and hyperprolactinemic anovulation disorders.

Reproductive Cloning

32.4K
Reproductive cloning is the process of producing a genetically identical copy—a clone—of an entire organism. While clones can be produced by splitting an early embryo—similar to what happens naturally with identical twins—cloning of adult animals is usually done by a process called somatic cell nuclear transfer (SCNT).
Somatic Cell Nuclear Transfer
In SCNT, an egg cell is taken from an animal and its nucleus is removed, creating an enucleated egg. Then a somatic...

Embryonic Stem Cells

32.0K
Embryonic stem (ES) cells are undifferentiated pluripotent cells, meaning they can produce any cell type in the body. This gives them tremendous potential in science and medicine since they can generate specific cell types for use in research or to replace body cells lost due to damage or disease.

Embryonic Stem Cells

4.5K
Embryonic stem (ES) cells were first discovered in mice in 1981 by Martin Evans. In 1998, James Thomson identified a method to isolate embryonic stem cells from humans. Human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) are obtained from 3-5 day old embryos that remain unused after an in vitro fertilization procedure.
ES cells are grown in a culture medium where they can divide indefinitely, creating ES cell lines. Under certain conditions, ES cells can differentiate, either spontaneously into a variety of...

Area of Science:

  • Reproductive Health
  • Digital Health
  • Sociology

Background:

  • Abortion access in the United States is increasingly complex due to varying state policies.
  • Financial barriers significantly impact individuals' ability to obtain abortion services.
  • Crowdfunding has emerged as a potential, albeit understudied, avenue for financing healthcare, including abortion.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To analyze the utilization and success rates of crowdfunding campaigns for abortion services.
  • To identify factors influencing the financial success of abortion-related crowdfunding efforts.

Main Methods:

  • A cross-sectional analysis was conducted on 92 publicly available crowdfunding campaigns for abortion services.
  • Data were collected from four major crowdfunding platforms.
  • Campaign characteristics and fundraising outcomes were abstracted and analyzed.

Main Results:

  • The median requested amount was $610, with a median of $0 raised.
  • Only 21% of campaigns successfully met their fundraising goals.
  • Campaign success was not associated with state abortion policies but was higher for campaigns using a third-person narrative or detailing maternal/fetal diagnoses.

Conclusions:

  • Crowdfunding is utilized by individuals to finance abortion services.
  • The overall success rate for these campaigns is notably low, indicating significant challenges in meeting financial needs through this method.
