IVF success rate
IVF is a kind of assisted reproductive technology, which helps couples with natural pregnancy difficulties to have a successful birth by fertilizing sperm and eggs in vitro and then implanting the fertilized eggs into the mother. However, IVF is not 100% successful, and its success rate depends on many factors, such as age, fertility problems and the strength of hospitals. The success rate of IVF will be elaborated from different aspects below.
Age
The age of women is one of the important factors that affect the success rate of IVF. Generally speaking, the younger the woman, the higher the success rate. According to the data of the American Society of Reproductive Medicine, the success rate of IVF can reach 40% to 50% for women under 35 years of age, while that of women over 40 years of age drops to about 20%. This is because the number and quality of female eggs will decline with age, affecting the possibility of fertilization and embryo implantation.
However, age is not the only determinant. Women may also have other fertility disorders during IVF, such as fallopian tube problems, endometriosis, etc. These factors also affect the success rate of IVF.
Fertility
In addition to age, whether couples have fertility problems will also affect the success rate of IVF. The success rate of IVF will be affected by the quality and quantity of male sperm, the quality of female eggs and the condition of endometrium.
Some common fertility problems include low sperm quality, insufficient eggs, thin endometrium, etc. These problems may need to be solved through assisted reproductive technology, such as selecting high-quality sperm and eggs, increasing the number of eggs or thickening the endometrium.
Hospital strength
The success rate of IVF also depends on the strength and technical level of the hospital. Different hospitals may have different technologies and experiences in embryo culture, embryo evaluation and implantation. Some large general hospitals and professional reproductive medical centers usually have higher success rates.
For example, California IVF Fertility Center is a hospital specializing in IVF technology. They have advanced laboratory equipment and experienced medical staff, so their IVF success rate is high. Similarly, other well-known hospitals in various countries are constantly improving their technical level to improve the success rate of IVF.
summary
The success rate of each attempt of IVF depends on many factors. Age is one of the important factors affecting the success rate. Older women have a relatively low success rate. Fertility problems such as sperm quality and egg quality will also affect the success rate. In addition, the strength and technical level of the hospital is also one of the key factors determining the success rate.
Therefore, when couples choose IVF, they should fully understand their own situation and choose the appropriate hospital and doctor. In addition, actively adopting a healthy lifestyle and maintaining good physical condition can also improve the success rate of IVF.
