    ORLANDO, FL, February 22, 2009 /24-7PressRelease/ -- The Egg Donation and Surrogacy Professional Association (EDSPA), as a multidisciplinary organization that promotes cooperation, education and professional ethics in the matters of gestational carriers, traditional surrogacy, egg, sperm and embryo donation, and related areas, would like to support the further investigation by the medical and legal community into the circumstances surrounding the conception of the octuplets and ethical practices that were involved.

Over the last decade, the American Society of Reproductive Medicine (ASRM) and the Society for Assisted Reproductive Technology (SART) have worked diligently to reduce the number of high order multiple births resulting from IVF treatments. They have produced guidelines restricting the number of embryos transferred during IVF. Published research confirms that these guidelines have led to fewer embryos being transferred and a marked reduction in the number of high order multiple births.
