In vitro fertilisation (or fertilizationIVF) is a process by which an egg is fertilised by sperm outside the body: in vitro ("in glass"). The process involves monitoring and stimulating a woman's ovulatory process, removing an ovum or ova (egg or eggs) from the woman's ovaries and letting sperm fertilise them in a liquid in a laboratory. The fertilised egg (zygote) is cultured for 2–6 days in a growth medium and is then implanted in the same or another woman's uterus, with the intention of establishing a successful pregnancy.
IVF techniques can be used in different types of situations. It is a technique of assisted reproductive technology for treatment of infertility. IVF techniques are also employed in gestational surrogacy, in which case the fertilised egg is implanted into a surrogate's uterus, and the resulting child is genetically unrelated to the surrogate. In some situations, donated eggs or sperms may be used. Some countries ban or otherwise regulate the availability of IVF treatment, giving rise to fertility tourism. Restrictions on availability of IVF include single females, lesbians and surrogacy arrangements. Due to the costs of the procedure, IVF is mostly attempted only after less expensive options have failed.
The first successful birth of a "test tube baby", Louise Brown, occurred in 1978. Louise Brown was born as a result of natural cycle IVF where no stimulation was made. Robert G. Edwards, the physiologist who developed the treatment, was awarded the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicinein 2010. With egg donation and IVF, women who are past their reproductive years or menopause can still become pregnant. Adriana Iliescu held the record as the oldest woman to give birth using IVF and donated egg, when she gave birth in 2004 at the age of 66, a record passed in 2006. After the IVF treatment many couples are able to get pregnant without any fertility treatments.[1]

From The Menstrual Period To Ovulation (The Details You May Not Know!)

When your menstrual cycle begins, your estrogen levels are low. Your hypothalamus, which is in charge of maintaining your hormone levels, sends a message to your pituitary gland, which then releases the follicle stimulating hormone (FSH).
FSH triggers a few of your follicles to develop mature eggs. One of the follicles will become dominant and will release a mature egg, while the others will disintegrate. As the follicles mature, they send out another hormone called estrogen. An increase in estrogen tells the hypothalamus and pituitary gland that there is a mature egg.
The luteinizing hormone (LH) is then released, also known as your LH surge. The LH surge causes the egg to burst through the ovary wall within 24-36 hours. The egg will then begin its journey down the fallopian tube where it will be available for fertilization.
The follicle from which the egg was released is called the corpus luteum, and it releases progesterone to help thicken and prepare the uterine lining for implantation.  The corpus luteum produces progesterone for about 12-16 days(the luteal phase of your cycle.) If an egg is fertilized, the corpus luteum will continue to produce progesterone for a developing pregnancy until the placenta takes over. If fertilization does not occur, the egg will dissolve after 24 hours.
At this time your hormone levels will decrease, and your uterine lining will begin to shed about 12-16 days after ovulation. This is called menstruation, which brings us back to day 1 of your cycle. The journey then begins all over again.

HOW PREGNANCY HAPPENS


Pregnancy is both simple and very complicated. Have you ever wondered exactly how pregnancy happens?  If so, the information below should help.
How does pregnancy happen?
  • Before pregnancy can begin, two important steps need to take place. An egg must be released during ovulation and it must be fertilized by a sperm cell.
  • From a medical point of view, pregnancy begins when a fertilized egg implants into the wall of the uterus. Pregnancy continues as that egg grows in to an embryo and then a fetus.
The Three Steps of Pregnancy
1. Ovulation: The ovary releases an egg
Hormones associated with the menstrual cycle (period) cause eggs inside the ovaries to mature. Every 28 days or so, one mature egg is released from the ovary. This is called ovulation. After the egg is released, it moves into the fallopian tube where it stays for about 24 hours. If the egg is not fertilized during that time, the egg disintegrates (breaks down) and menstruation (your period) begins 2 weeks later.
2. Fertilization: Sperm meets egg
The mature egg is fertilized when it is joined with a sperm cell. This usually happens after a penis has ejaculated semen inside a vagina. Sperm is contained in the semen which travels up the vagina, through the cervix and uterus and into the fallopian tubes. If an egg is less than 24 hours old, it can be fertilized by a sperm.
Fertilization sometimes (but rarely) happens when semen has been ejaculated outside but near the entrance of the vagina. Technology can also be used to fertilize an egg, either by inserting semen into the female’s body (artificial insemination) or by fertilizing an egg outside the body and then placing it into the uterus.
3. Implantation: The fertilized egg attaches to the lining of the uterus and pregnancy begins.
Most eggs are fertilized by sperm while still in the fallopian tube. The fertilized egg then travels down the fallopian tube into the uterus. This can take 1 – 2 days. When the egg reaches the uterus, it may attach itself to the uterine lining (the endometrium) and pregnancy will begin. Many fertilized eggs are never implanted and are flushed out of the body with the next period.


Astrological factors --

Planet moon- Is very important factor in ovulation,mensuration and pregnancy.
The second most important planet here is Venus which is signifactor of female generative parts.

Moon and Venus - All body fluids,including blood and reproductive ones.Venus represents the reproductive organs in females,third week of menstrual cycle and semen in males .
Moon /venus- for female hormonal disturbances relating to such as infertility with low levels of the blood hormone, testosterone or o estrogen receptor insensitivity. Dry weak uterus,ovarian deficiency.
Saturn - For chronic wasting diseases and all blockages,it also represents excretory system.
Mars- Surgeries ,procedures and sex.
Moon/mars- Mensuration.
Jupiter- The putra karka .Natural significator of 5th.
Rahu - the foreign object and something unorthodox  ( here fertilization of embryo through IVF )
Sign - Scorpio.
Houses-5th, 7th,8th 
Lords of 6th 8th and 12th.
Mars- Any insertion,injection,procedure where something is injected or taken out of body.

IVF - comes into play when normal pregnancy is difficult due to motley of  following factors.
Kshetra/beej  saphuta falling in barren signs.
Jupiter / 5th lord combust or afflicted.
Signs of jupiter in 5th house.
Barren signs in 5th.  ie ,Aries ,gemini,leo ,virgo 
Damaged Fallopian tubes.
Hormonal problems
Diseases like PCOS and PCOD.
Weak/damaged uterus.
Saturn in sign Scorpio, placed in the 8th house will give diseases of reproductive organs throughout life.
Affliction to Moon and Mars in a female astrology chart create disturbance in menstrual cycles
Venus/Moon being afflicted by Saturn/Rahu indicates blockage in fallopian tubes.
 7th/8th house afflicted by Saturn and Rahu indicates obstruction in Fallopian tubes
Example charts- Chart one male
Beej saphuta- scorpio ( though even rashi its not barren)

Lord of 5th and 6th  in 12th house and afflicted by rahu ,lord of ascendent also under influence of rahu/ saturn due to aspect of rahu on trioka of planets which include Lagna lord,12th lord and 8th lord,putra karak jupiter is retrograde and under the aspect of 8th lord and 3rd lord mars.7th house is also under the aspect of 8th lord and 3rd lord a quality malefic here. Mars is combust it is kind of blessing here .Jupiter though retrograde aspects 5th house as putra karka is the only silver lining here .
There were many attempts to conceive including IVf ,which did not succeed . Transit jupiter  then in   in leo over ,5th lord jupiter,brought in  the promise as it touched ,sun,moon ,lagna lord mercury and 5th lord Jupiter so i advised n him to go in for IVF then Which was successful ,the native is blessed by Son .
Dasha sequence- Moon-ven- rahu. 
Rahu transit also came to natal position  activating the unorthodox but successful IVF procedure .


Chart 2- female partner
Ksherta sphuta- Cancer ,fruitful sign
two miscarriages in APR 03 and recently Feb 15 
Injury to uterus in 2003 during procedure 

Notice the influence of rahu on lagna ,7th house ,5th house and 5th lord. Mars is combust as 5th lord ,moon the lagna lord is  chief significator of fluids and ovulation is badly placed  in Saturn sign conjunct mercury lord of 12th and 3rd mercury here mercury is involved in exchange with 7th and 8th lord Saturn. 6th lord Jupiter is with 8th lord  Saturn under aspect from sun, mars and Venus, Venus and mars both are com-bust . in grah yudha Venus is again defeated ,so is mercury .Aspect of both 6th and 8th lord on Venus and 5th lord ensured problems in conception,miscarriage  and injury to uterus in one of the procedures. Further both 6t h and 7th+8th lord are retrograde therefore considering their previous effect they aspect moon significator of womb.So both 4th house lord venus  and natural significator moon for womb are under the aspects of 6th .8th lords.
Transit Jupiter transit in Leo aspecting lagna lord moon dasha lord mercury . 8th house is very important here for the procedure ,transit mars ,5th lord in natal chart was in cancer over natal rahu ,ensured the extraction of fluids and then reinsertion as fertilized egg in uterus . Jupiters aspect insured success of the procedure .
Dasha sequence was mercury - rahu- mercury
Mercury is lord of 3rd and 12th involved in exchange with 7th and 8th lord saturn ,theeby it establishes relationship with 6th lord ,7th and 8th lord and lagna lord also the significator of womb ( moon here)
Rahu as mentioned above  is unorthodox procedure here IVF was used to impregnate .
Remedies suggested from conception to child birth - Garabh raksha stotra ( self explanatory) , vishnu sahasarnam( for dasha lord mercury, and santan gopal mantra for conception

Paralysis and astrology


Astrology of paralysis .

https://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/paralysis.html
Paralysis is the loss of muscle function in part of your body. It happens when something goes wrong with the way messages pass between your brain and muscles. Paralysis can be complete or partial. It can occur on one or both sides of your body. It can also occur in just one area, or it can be widespread. Paralysis of the lower half of your body, including both legs, is called paraplegia. Paralysis of the arms and legs is quadriplegia.
Most paralysis is due to strokes or injuries such as spinal cord injury or a broken neck. Other causes of paralysis include
Polio used to be a cause of paralysis, but polio no longer occurs in most parts of world.

http://www.nhs.uk/conditions/paralysis/pages/causes.aspx



Causes of paralysis  

The four most common causes of paralysis are stroke, head injury, spinal cord injury and multiple sclerosis.

Stroke

A stroke is a serious medical condition that occurs when the blood supply to your brain is disturbed.
Like all organs, the brain needs a constant supply of blood that contains oxygen and nutrients to function properly.
If the blood supply is restricted or stopped, brain cells will begin to die, which can lead to brain damage that often results in paralysis.

Head injury

A severe head injury can cause brain damage. The brain's surface can tear or bruise as it bumps against the skull, damaging blood vessels and nerves.
Paralysis can occur if a part of the brain that controls specific muscles is damaged during a severe head injury.
Damage to the left side of the brain can cause paralysis on the right side of the body, and damage to the right side of the brain can cause paralysis on the left side of the body.

Spinal cord injury

The spinal cord is part of your central nervous system. It is a thick bundle of nerves that runs from your brain, down through the neck and spine, inside a canal of vertebrae.
Its main function is to transmit signals to and from the brain and body. For example, the spinal cord passes nerve signals, such as hot or cold sensations, back to the brain.
If the neck or spine is injured, the spinal cord can also be damaged. This means the brain may no longer be able to transmit signals to the muscles, causing paralysis.
The exact location where the spinal injury occurs can have a significant effect on how severe and wide-ranging the paralysis is. The higher up the spine the injury occurs, the worse the paralysis will be. For example, an injury in the middle of the spine will usually cause paraplegia (paralysis of the lower limbs).
A neck injury, such as a broken neck, will usually result in tetraplegia (paralysis in all four limbs, also known as quadriplegia), as well as loss of normal lung function, which means the person will need to use a ventilator to breathe.
Read more about how the level of spinal cord injury is determined.
The most common causes of spinal cord injury are:
  • motor vehicle accidents
  • accidents while working
  • accidents during sports or other types of activity
  • falls
  • spinal cord paralysis caused by disease rather than injury 
The nature of these causes means that most spinal cord injuries occur in men (who account for 80% of all cases) and younger people. It is estimated that half of all spinal cord injuries occur in people who are 16 to 30 years of age.

Multiple sclerosis

Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a condition where nerve fibres in the spinal cord become damaged by the immune system (the body's natural defence against infection and illness).
The immune system mistakenly attacks a substance called myelin, which surrounds nerve fibres and helps with the transmission of nerve signals.
In MS, the myelin around the nerve fibres becomes damaged, which disturbs the messages coming to and from the brain. This can result in paralysis.
Less common causes of paralysis
There are also a number of less common causes, which are listed below.

Cancer

Cancers that develop in the brain, such as a high-grade brain tumour, can cause paralysis, usually on one side of the body.
Alternatively, cancers can spread (metastasise) from other parts of the body into the brain or spinal cord, leading to paralysis.

Cerebral palsy

Cerebral palsy is a set of neurological conditions (those that affect the brain and nervous system) that affect a child's movement and co-ordination.
Cerebral palsy is caused by brain damage, which usually occurs before, during or soon after birth. Some possible causes of cerebral palsy include:
  • infection during early pregnancy
  • a difficult or premature birth
  • bleeding in the baby's brain
  • abnormal brain development in the baby
The most severe type of cerebral palsy is called spastic quadriplegia, where a person has such a high degree of muscle stiffness (spasticity) in all of their limbs that they are unable to use them.

Friedreich's ataxia

Friedreich's ataxia is a rare genetic condition that affects around 1 in every 25,000 people in England. It is caused by a mutation in a gene known as the GAA gene.
The mutation results in the body not producing enough of the protein frataxin. Frataxin is thought to play a role in the regulation of iron levels inside nerve cells.
Because of the lack of enough frataxin being produced, the level of iron and other toxic substances starts to build up inside the nerve cells, damaging them.
Many people with Friedreich's ataxia experience a gradual increase of paralysis in their legs. They will eventually need to use a wheelchair or another type of mobility aid.

Guillain-Barré syndrome

Guillain-Barré syndrome is a rare and poorly understood condition caused by peripheral nervous system damage. The peripheral nervous system is the network of nerves that controls the body's senses and movements.
In Guillain-Barré syndrome, the body's immune system attacks the nerves of the peripheral nervous system, which causes them to become inflamed.
This nerve damage results in a tingly, numb sensation in the arms and legs, which can eventually lead to temporary paralysis of the arms, legs and face.
Most people with Guillain-Barré syndrome make a full recovery in a few weeks or months and do not experience any other associated problems.

Lyme disease

Lyme disease is a bacterial infection spread by infected ticks.
Ticks are small arachnids that feed on the blood of mammals, including humans. The ticks release bacteria that can damage the nerves, leading to temporary paralysis of the face.
Motor neurone disease
Motor neurone disease (MND) is a rare, incurable condition. Over time, the nerves in the brain and spine gradually lose function (neurodegeneration).
Nerve cells known as motor neurones are affected by MND. Motor neurones are specialised nerve cells that control voluntary muscle movements, such as walking. MND causes progressive muscle weakness, which eventually leads to total body paralysis.

Spina bifida

Spina bifida is a term that describes a series of birth defects that affect development of the spine and nervous system.
Myelomeningocele is the most serious type of spina bifida, occurring in 1 in every 1,000 births. It causes extensive damage to the nervous system, which can often result in partial or total permanent paralysis of the lower limbs.
Astrological Indicators-

Mercury - nervous system

Saturn- Wasting degenerative diseases,blockage and skeletal system.
Sun- Spine,heart and blood pumping system

Moon - Fluids,blood,mind,circulation.
Mars- Injuries,surgeries ,blood,muscles and movement.

Lords of 6,8 and 12.
6th lord for diseases ,accidents and 8th lord for critical illness and sudden events/accidents.
Diseases of the Dhatu of the afflicted lord of Lagna.

When lord of the Lagna be weak, be aspected by malefics and be not aspected by or conjoined with benefics, the native suffers from some affliction of the Dhatu of that plarret (who is lord of the Lagna).
 For example, the Sun would in such a position cause some kind of bone disease and the Moon in similar position would be the cause of some blood disease. The other planets if they are disposed likewise would give diseases related to their Dhatus. Mars wili be responsible for disease of the muscles, Mercury of
skin or nerves, Jupiter of bone marrow and liver, Venus of semen and urine and Saturn and Rahu of nerves.
Saturn in thconstellation of Rahu and Ketu ,or in  the constellation of Saturn,involving in 8th house indicates paralysis afflicting the native.


As per Vedic astrology the dhatus as assigned to planets is as below

Eaxample chart-- 


Chart no1- Lagna lord is com-bust and retrograde in 12th ,
This chart fulfills the condition  of Ptolemy of luminaries being conjunct and afflicted. 
Mars lord of sixth is in second  house is aspected by saturn from 12th house .
The paralysis in this case happened due to a stroke in 2010. Mercury the signifactor and lord of lagna is combust ,afflicted and in association with luminaries and saturn lord of 8th here.Moon is blood ,saturn blockage ,mercury nerves,sun  bones and spine,saturn muscles and skeltal system ,mars movement and muscles . Dasha sequence at the time of stroke Mercury - Venus - jupiter.
Mercury is lagna lord ,venus lord of 12th of hospitalisation and incapication ,jupiter suffers from kendraadhipati dosha and happens to be lord of 7th al;so so a maraka.The clutter of significators  of this disease in 12th and trigger of the said disease by maraka and lord of 12th clearly led to this diease in 2010.
