Octomom’s Fertility Doctor Accused of Negligence
Nadya Suleman, a reality TV star who made herself famous for conceiving octuplets, is defending her fertility doctor Michael Kamrava who has been formally charged with negligence for helping her conceive 14 children even if she was unemployed and was receiving welfare support at that time the fertility procedure has been performed.
According to past interviews, Suleman, more popularly called as Octomom, said that she received six embryos from each of her IVF cycle, a violation of the American Society for Reproductive Medicine’s standard which only recommends a maximum of two embryos.
Meanwhile, other professional fertility doctors are criticising Kamrava for implanting embryos to Suleman without letting her to undergo a psychological assessment or at least a background check.
