Roe v. Wade & Embryo Protection at Boston IVF


It is truly hard to fathom that in 2022, our reproductive freedom – a fundamental human right – is now at risk. 

At Boston IVF, we strongly oppose the overturning of Roe v. Wade and the severe impact it will have on reproductive healthcare across the United States. We support the privacy and right of all people to make personal choices regarding access to life-saving care, reproductive treatments, and their embryos. We felt this way almost 40 years ago when we first opened our doors – and even more so today.


IVF & EMBRYO STORAGE AT BOSTON IVF

At Boston IVF, your frozen embryos are currently safe, protected, and respected. No facet of IVF treatment at Boston IVF – including embryo storage – has been affected by the recent overturning of Roe v. Wade. We will always advocate for and protect the reproductive freedom of our patients throughout Massachusetts, New England, and New York – as well as individuals residing in states whose embryos are at risk.


MASSACHUSETTS IS A SAFE HAVEN

Massachusetts is a national leader and one of the first states to recognize fertility treatments, like IVF, as an essential healthcare right. Across the country, patients are turning to Boston IVF and the state of Massachusetts – where making personal, important decisions regarding your reproductive healthcare is considered an essential right. We continue to closely monitor this troublesome ruling and the potential for individual states to enact further legislation that may affect the transportation of embryos.


EMBRYO STORAGE IN TRIGGER STATES

On the contrary, 13 states across the country have already taken the initial steps to ban abortion. These states have “trigger laws” in place that immediately ban abortion within 30 days of Roe v. Wade’s overturning. IVF may not be affected in these states; 
however, the definition of “personhood” in relation to the rights and storage of frozen embryos are of the utmost concern.
