Tim Walz Caught Lying About Having Children Via IVF

Has Tim Walz ever told the truth?

Walz has lied numerous times about him and his wife conceiving their child via IVF.

No, they did not. They used intrauterine insemination, which does not include using or throwing away frozen embryos:

I.V.F. has a much higher success rate than I.U.I. But reproductive endocrinologists, or fertility doctors, may suggest that people struggling with infertility start with I.U.I., which is much less expensive and less invasive. In both cases, patients often take hormone medication to induce or augment ovulation. And individuals and couples going through the two procedures often walk through similar emotional journeys, where success can bring elation but each failed attempt can be devastating.Those who begin such treatments can also find themselves entering a world of dizzying and occasionally awkward medical terminology.I.U.I. works by taking a sample of highly concentrated sperm and inserting it into a woman’s uterus with a catheter — effectively trying to mimic natural conception. The I.V.F. process often involves creating and freezing multiple embryos in a laboratory, and transferring those most likely to result in a healthy pregnancy.

LANGUAGE MATTERS.
