Fertility Centre to Dispose of Frozen Embryos

The Dubai Gynaecology and Fertility Centre that stores an estimated 5,000 eggs fertilised through invitro fertilisation will start the disposal procedure next week, according to a notice issued by the Dubai Health Authority. Another 5,000 frozen embryos are believed to be stored at the Al Tawam Hospital in Al Ain. The law that was passed by the Federal National Council two years ago rejected the medical procedure on religious grounds, fearing mixing in the lineage. Khaleej Times
