What is the age limit of IVF?

IVF is an artificial assisted reproduction method assisted by in vitro fertilization technology, which has become an effective way for many infertile couples to realize their reproductive dreams. However, IVF is not suitable for couples of all ages. Hefei Provincial Hospital, as a well-known medical institution, has certain provisions on age limits in order to ensure the success rate of IVF and the health of children.

Female age limit

The age of women is one of the important factors that affect the success rate of IVF. Generally speaking, the best childbearing age for women is between 20 and 35 years old. As women grow older, the number and quality of their eggs will gradually decline, leading to an increase in pregnancy problems. The age limit of IVF in Hefei Provincial Hospital mainly considers the health and safety of children, and is generally limited to below 45 years old.

However, for women over 45 years old, the hospital will still make a comprehensive assessment based on their physical conditions. If their physical conditions are appropriate, the IVF method can also be considered. Because the female age limit is mainly to reduce the risk of the birth of children and improve the success rate, rather than absolute prohibition.

Male age limit

Compared with the female age, the male reproductive function is relatively stable, and the influence of age on IVF is relatively small. Hefei Provincial Hospital has relatively loose restrictions on the age of men, and generally there is no strict age limit. However, when choosing IVF, the hospital will still consider the age of the couple and other relevant factors to ensure the success rate and the health of the child.

Limitations of physical conditions

In addition to age restrictions, Hefei Provincial Hospital has a series of physical conditions for IVF. First of all, the couple should not have serious genetic diseases or chronic diseases to avoid genetic diseases. Secondly, women should have normal uterus and fallopian tube functions, and men should have normal semen quality.

In addition, the couple should be in good physical condition without obvious cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases and mental diseases. These restrictions are to ensure the safety of the IVF process and the healthy growth of the baby.

Summary

To sum up, Hefei Provincial Hospital mainly considers the age and physical conditions of women for the age limit of IVF, while the age of men is relatively loose. Women are generally recommended to be under 45 years of age and be evaluated according to their physical conditions; There is no strict age limit for men. In addition to age, the hospital will also take comprehensive consideration of the physical conditions of the couple, such as genetic diseases, uterus and semen functions. The purpose of this is to improve the success rate of IVF and ensure the healthy growth of children.
