In India, age often doesn't stop women from seeking help to become pregnant...

Inside a crowded rural hospital, gray-haired Nananki Rohtash rested on a cot, her swollen legs elevated while her sister-in-law paced nearby. Rohtash is a 60-year-old mother of five and a grandmother of eight.

She's also nine months pregnant, the result of an in vitro fertilization clinic, one of hundreds that have opened recently in India, urging clients to "Come alone. Leave as a family. Age no bar.''

(...)

"The women come to us and say, 'Even if I die, at least I won't face the stigma of being barren,' " said Anurag Bishnoi, the center's lead IVF specialist. "These women are like soldiers:, They are on the front lines for their family, their country. They may die, but their family and country will live." Full story...

Don't miss:

  1. Women freeze eggs while waiting for Mr.Right...
  2. Impotent husband in India allows father to rape wife to have a child!!!
  3. Foetuses 'found dumped' in India...
  4. When India's poor hire out their wombs as surrogate mothers...
  5. Childless Indian woman kidnaps 6 baby boys to impress...
  6. Woman in India forced to have 6 abortions because in-laws did not want female child.
