In a study of 219 women undergoing IVF published in Fertility and Sterility, an Israeli team led by Shevach Friedler found that the odds of success were greater among women who were entertained by a professional "medical clown" just after the embryos were transferred to their wombs.All's well that ends well. Only... I hope that this clown wasn't our ex-president in disguise in a new job...
Overall, 36 percent became pregnant, as compared to 20 percent of women who'd had a comedy-free recovery after the transfer procedure.

Considering how different than their parents some children turn out, laughing might be the best way to begin the whole deal. Beats crying.
Definitely. Laughing is supposed to increase our lifespan.
Laughter may be the best medicine but I would have thought clown, even a medical one, would have had the prospective mothers putting guns to their heads!
Could have been some unusually astute character. I hate clowns by and large.
