In vitro fertilization, also called IVF, is a complex series of procedures that can lead to a pregnancy. It's a treatment for infertility, a condition in which you can't get pregnant after at least a year of trying for most couples. IVF also can be used to prevent passing on genetic problems to a child.

Some Christian churches advise women not to receive communion during their menstrual period. This is not because menstruation is considered sinful but for more intense preparation to approach Christ and due to the physical difficulties faced by women. Some Church Fathers defended the exclusion of women from ministry based on a notion of uncleanness. Others held that purity laws should be discarded as part of the Old Covenant. The 4th-century text Apostolic Constitutions says:
"For neither lawful mixture, nor child-bearing, nor the menstrual purgation, nor nocturnal pollution, can defile the nature of a man, or separate the Holy Spirit from him. Nothing but impiety and unlawful practice can do that."
In 735 the Latin Church decided that women must be allowed to attend liturgies and receive Holy Communion during their menstruation.
