Image
  In an extraordinary story that sounds like something straight out of science fiction, a baby boy has been born from an embryo that had been frozen for more than   30 years , setting a new world record. The child,  Thaddeus Daniel Pierce , was welcomed by Lindsey (35) and Tim Pierce (34) from Ohio after years of struggling with infertility. Speaking to MIT Technology Review, Lindsey described the experience as “like something from a sci-fi movie.” This remarkable birth surpasses the previous record set in 2022, when twins were born from embryos frozen since 1992.

Beyond natural conception, weight loss programmes also improved the likelihood of achieving pregnancy through any method (either naturally or via IVF), with an overall increase of  21% .
