Does IVF require the age of both husband and wife?
IVF is an assisted reproductive technology that helps couples who cannot conceive naturally achieve their reproductive aspirations. However, age is one of the important factors to be considered in IVF. Generally speaking, IVF has certain requirements for the age of both husband and wife.
Age requirement of the woman
The reproductive capacity of women gradually decreases with age. In IVF, the age of the woman has a significant impact on the success rate. Generally speaking, the best childbearing age for a woman is between 20 and 35 years old. Because at this age, women's ovarian function is relatively healthy, the quality of eggs is good, and the success rate of pregnancy and pregnancy is high. With the growth of age, the number and quality of female follicles will gradually decline, and the number and quality of eggs will also be affected, thus affecting the success rate of IVF.
However, not every woman can give birth within the optimal childbearing age. For women over 35 years old, especially those over 40 years old, there will be some changes in the IVF program. Doctors may recommend more intensive ovarian stimulation to improve the success rate. In addition, older women may need more embryo transfers to succeed.
Different hospitals and doctors may have slightly different age requirements, so it is recommended to consult a professional doctor or go to an appropriate hospital to consult the specific situation.
Age requirement of the man
Although female age has a greater impact on the success rate of IVF, male age is also one of the factors to be considered. The quality and quantity of male sperm will also decline with age. However, compared with women, male fertility declined relatively slowly.
Generally speaking, the optimal childbearing age for men is similar to that for women, between 20 and 35 years old. At this age, the quality and quantity of male sperm are better, which is conducive to the success of pregnancy and pregnancy. However, compared with women's age limit, men's age requirements are relatively relaxed, especially when using their own sperm for pregnancy.
Consideration of other factors
In addition to age, the health status of both spouses is also a factor to be considered during IVF. Women need to undergo a series of physical examinations, including uterus, ovary and endocrine examination. Men also need semen analysis and other related tests. The physical condition and health status of both spouses will directly affect the success rate of IVF.
summary
IVF does have certain requirements for the age of both husband and wife. The best childbearing age for the woman is between 20 and 35 years old. With the increase of age, the success rate gradually decreases. The age of the man also needs attention. Although the impact is relatively small, the quality and quantity of sperm still need attention. In addition to age, the health status of both spouses is also an important consideration. Choosing appropriate hospitals and consulting professional doctors can help couples understand more specific age requirements and recommendations, so as to improve the success rate of IVF.
