The World Health Organization (WHO) reports that about 300,000 deaths are caused by pregnancy complications. In today’s social environment, a fertility center has come to town. As fertility rates drop, couples are looking for alternative ways to conceive. Surrogacy, artificial insemination, etc. are emerging in the development of science.
In this case, Berlin-based company EctoLife is introducing the world’s first artificial womb system to create and grow a baby. The facility, which is artificially created like a mother’s womb, can produce 30,000 babies a year, it said.

EctoLife has released a video on the internet in which it claims that the facility will help infertile parents conceive children and become real biological parents.
Based on more than 50 years of groundbreaking scientific research conducted by researchers around the world, the company created by scientist Hashem Al-Khaili has developed an artificial uterus system that mimics the environment of a woman’s uterus.

The company claims that EctoLife could become a solution for women who have lost their ovaries due to cancer and other complications. Like the fluid present in the mother’s uterus, it is filled with artificial fluid in which the embryo grows. Enriched nutrients are sent to the developing fetus through an artificial umbilical cord. Similarly, they take out the waste of the child and use it again.
It offers the facility to genetically edit and shape embryos collected from couples before being implanted into an artificial womb. It is said that the child’s intelligence, height, strength, hair, eye color etc. can be selected and made accordingly, and genetic diseases can be avoided through this genetic modification.

EctoLife is powered entirely by renewable energy. And each developing womb box has sensors that can monitor the baby’s vital signs, including heart rate, temperature, blood pressure, respiratory rate and oxygen saturation.
It has been said that parents will be able to take care of them from their phones from time to time. It says that they can grow their embryos at home and not just in their labs.
Scientist Hashem says that it will greatly help Japan, Bulgaria and South Korea, which are worried about population decline. About 30,000 embryos can be grown per year in 75 labs with 400 artificial wombs, he said. It will be revolutionized by new knowledge, he says.
