The answer
Procreation is a blessing from the Lord (Psalm 127:3-5). The Coptic Orthodox Church approves family planning but strictly prohibits the use of any kind of abortifacients. The stance of the Church mandates that no method can be used which would interfere with the implantation of a fertilized ovum.For religious perspectives on infertility and in vitro procedures, please read the following articles:
