Are ivf babies able to conceive ?

Yes, babies conceived through in vitro fertilization (IVF) are able to conceive. IVF babies are just like any other babies and have the same reproductive capabilities as children conceived naturally. The process of IVF involves fertilizing an egg with sperm outside the body, and then implanting the resulting embryo into the mother's uterus. Once the embryo has implanted and a successful pregnancy has occurred, the resulting child will develop and grow like any other child.
It's worth noting that there is no scientific evidence to suggest that children conceived through IVF are at any greater risk of infertility or other reproductive issues than children conceived naturally. In fact, IVF has been used successfully for decades to help couples conceive when other methods have failed, and many children born through IVF go on to have children of their own.

What can be possible problems during ivf procedure?

While in vitro fertilization (IVF) has become a well-established procedure for couples who struggle with infertility, there are some potential risks and complications that should be considered. Some possible problems during the IVF procedure include:
Ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS): This is a condition in which the ovaries become swollen and painful due to the hormone medications given to stimulate egg production. In severe cases, OHSS can cause fluid buildup in the abdomen, chest, and lungs.
Multiple pregnancy: IVF increases the chance of having twins, triplets, or more. Multiple pregnancies can increase the risk of complications during pregnancy and delivery, including premature birth and low birth weight.
Ectopic pregnancy: This is a rare but serious complication in which the embryo implants outside the uterus, typically in the fallopian tubes. Ectopic pregnancy can be life-threatening if not diagnosed and treated promptly.
Failed fertilization or implantation: In some cases, none of the eggs retrieved during IVF may fertilize or implant successfully, which means the procedure is unsuccessful.
Birth defects: While the risk of birth defects in IVF babies is generally low, some studies have suggested a slightly higher risk compared to babies conceived naturally.
It's important to discuss these potential risks and complications with your doctor before undergoing IVF, and to carefully weigh the benefits and risks of the procedure in your individual situation.
