The Invocell technique allows the development of the embryo to be shared between two women
This Monday, October 30, I was born in Mallorca the first baby in Europe carried by two women at the same time. His name is Derek, he weighed 3.3 kilos and was born in the Juaneda Miramar hospital, according to the Diario de Mallorca, thanks to a technique called the Invocellwhich allows the development of the embryo to be shared between two women, so the couple could conceive their child jointly.
The mothers are a couple made up of Azahara, 27 years old, and Estefana, 30.
This technique consists of placing a device under the cervix of one of the two women that works as a kind of incubator. There the embryo develops during the first days and, once developed, the doctors extract it to implant it in the uterus of the partner. It is the first time that this technique has been successfully carried out in Europe.
This method of assisted reproduction has some advantages for pregnant women since, according to experts, it allows them to be more involved with the reproduction process since the embryo develops inside their body instead of in a laboratory and, furthermore, in The case of couples allows both to share their pregnancy.
