Fertility drugs lead to embryo problems

Fertility drugs may raise the risk of older women having babies affected by Down’s syndrome, warn doctors. Research shows that using powerful drugs to boost the number of eggs a woman produces may lead to problems in embryo development for women aged 35 and over. These could result in failure to get pregnant, or losing the baby, and more rarely the birth of children with conditions such as Down’s. Daily Mail
