Is the success rate of IVF related to age?
IVF technology is a kind of assisted reproduction technology, which transfers the pregnancy process from the body to the laboratory by artificial means, cultivates the fertilized eggs in vitro, and then transfers the fertilized eggs to the female uterus to realize pregnancy and delivery. Test tube baby therapy is widely used in the treatment of infertility, but its success rate is closely related to age. The following is a detailed description of the four age-related aspects of IVF success rate.
Aspect 1: The relationship between female age and success rate
The age of women is one of the important factors that affect the success rate of IVF. Generally speaking, women's fertility will gradually decline as they grow older. According to the statistical data, the success rate of IVF for women aged 20 to 30 years is generally about 40%, while that for women over 40 years old is only about 10%. This is because the growth of women's age will lead to decreased ovarian function, decreased egg quality and reduced pregnancy probability. Therefore, when choosing IVF technology, the age of women is an important consideration.
In addition, female age is closely related to embryo quality. Research shows that the quality of embryos produced by older women is poor, which is likely to increase the risk of embryo implantation failure or abortion. Therefore, the success rate of young women is relatively high.
Aspect 2: Relationship between male age and success rate
The influence of male age on the success rate of IVF is relatively small. Although male fertility will also decline with age, there are fewer factors affecting male fertility than women. Therefore, the influence of male age on the success rate of IVF is relatively small, and the success rate is relatively stable.
Aspect 3: Effect of IVF on women's bodies
IVF has a certain impact on women's body, especially in the pre pregnancy and during pregnancy. First of all, in the process of IVF, women need to accept the operation of assisted reproductive technology, including the process of egg retrieval and embryo transfer, which may have a certain stimulation and impact on women's bodies.
Secondly, after the success of IVF, women enter the pregnancy period and need to pay attention to the implantation of embryos and the development of pregnancy. IVF pregnancy, like natural pregnancy, will face some risks, including implantation failure, abnormal embryonic development, early pregnancy reaction, etc. Therefore, women need to pay close attention to their own body changes in the process of IVF, seek medical advice in time and accept the guidance of doctors.
Finally, the delivery process after the success of IVF may also have a certain impact on women's bodies. Because test tube babies are usually delivered by caesarean section, which is different from natural delivery in terms of women's physical recovery and trauma.
Aspect 4: Impact after birth
The influence of IVF on female body after birth is similar to that of natural delivery. The mother needs to carry out the lactation process, which will stimulate and adjust the mammary gland and milk secretion to a certain extent. At the same time, taking care of children will affect the mother's work and rest time and mental state, requiring additional energy and care, which may have a certain impact on women's physical and mental health.
Summary
In general, the success rate of IVF is closely related to the age of women, and the success rate of young women is relatively high. The influence of male age on the success rate of IVF is relatively small. IVF has a certain impact on women's bodies, including the stimulation and impact during the operation of assisted reproductive technology, risks and precautions during pregnancy, and the breast-feeding and care process after birth. Therefore, when choosing the IVF technology, we should fully consider the age factor and its impact on women's body, and conduct the operation and infant care under the guidance of doctors.
