Viagra Boosts Conception!

A woman has given birth to a baby with the help of the men"s sex-drive booster, Viagra. Kerry Horan, wife of David experienced the miraculous event.

Kerry Horan, 34, had suffered a miscarriage and three rounds of failed IVF since her marriage in 2002.

The doctors found that the blood flow to her womb was poor, making the lining too thin for an embryo to be implanted successfully and this was the reason for the failure of all the infertility treatments.

Dr George Ndukwe at the private Care Nottingham Fertility Clinic, advised her to take Viagra. "It can improve the lining, but can be dangerous and must be taken under supervision," said the Doctor.

However, Horan, of Huddersfield, West Yorks, was not too confident that it would work. Horan was willing to do anything, though she was shocked to hear about this novel remedy. “ Minutes after taking it my body went pink and my face bright red. I took Viagra for nine days and it wasn't a pleasant experience," explains Horan.

The result was evident in a scan, which showed her womb wall thickened enough for the doctors to implant IVF embryos.

She fell pregnant two weeks later and gave birth to a healthy daughter Grace, in December.

"We could not stop crying, when we saw the baby's heartbeat on a scan When I finally held Grace, it was the most emotional experience. Thanks to Viagra I'm a mother at last!", adds Horan.

It is the first time this method has been successful for the infertility treatment.
