Exploring the ethical and religious issues of using in vitro fertilization to start families.

Some people use IVF to have babies when they can't have them naturally. IVF can make extra embryos, which are very early stages of babies.

People have different beliefs about when life begins. This makes it hard to decide what to do with extra embryos.

Some people believe life begins at conception, so they think embryos are like babies. They don't want to destroy the embryos, but they also don't want too many babies.

Doctors can help people limit the number of embryos they make during IVF. This can be expensive, and some people think it's still not right to make embryos you might not use.

There are different religious views on IVF. Some people think it's okay, and others think it's wrong to do anything that could lead to extra embryos.
