Is the success rate of IVF high?
As an assisted reproductive technology, IVF has been widely used in the world. So, how high is the success rate of IVF? What factors affect the success rate of IVF? This article will discuss these problems from many aspects.
Success rate and female age
Female age is one of the important factors affecting the success rate of IVF. Research shows that the older women are, the lower their success rate. This is related to the decline in the function of the female reproductive system, including the reduction in the quality and quantity of eggs. For example, for women under 35 years of age, the success rate of IVF is usually between 30% and 40%, while for women over 35 years of age, the success rate is reduced to 15% to 20%. Therefore, age is one of the important factors affecting the success rate of IVF.
In addition, the influence of female age on IVF treatment cycle cannot be ignored. The older women are, the more cycles they need to get pregnant successfully, which not only increases the financial burden, but also prolongs the treatment time. Therefore, when considering IVF treatment, the age of women should be fully considered.
Success rate and male factors
In addition to female factors, male factors also have a certain impact on the success rate of IVF. Male factors include sperm quality, quantity and hormone level. The study found that the success rate of IVF for men with poor sperm quality was low. In addition, if men have testicular diseases, testicular trauma, genital infection and other problems, it will also affect their sperm quality and quantity, thus reducing the success rate of IVF.
For male factors, doctors usually recommend semen analysis to assess the quality and quantity of sperm. If abnormalities are found, other treatments may be needed, such as testicular biopsy, to improve the success rate of IVF.
Success rate and hospital professional level
The professional level of the hospital also has an important impact on the success rate of IVF. IVF is a complex technology, which requires doctors and teams to have high technical level and rich experience. When selecting hospitals, patients should consider the hospital's equipment conditions, doctors' qualifications and experience, as well as the hospital's success stories and patients' reputation.
For example, in China, well-known hospitals such as Peking Union Medical College Hospital and Ruijin Hospital affiliated to Shanghai Jiaotong University School of Medicine have world advanced IVF technology and clinical experience, and their success rate is relatively high. Therefore, it is very important to select a high-level hospital to improve the success rate of IVF.
Success rate summary
In conclusion, the success rate of IVF is affected by many factors. Age is an important factor affecting the success rate of women. The older the women, the lower the success rate. Male factors such as sperm quality and quantity also affect the success rate of IVF. In addition, the professional level of the hospital is also one of the key factors affecting the success rate. Choosing hospitals with high professional level can provide higher quality technology and services, thus improving the success rate of IVF.
Therefore, couples preparing for IVF treatment should fully understand these factors and comprehensively consider to select appropriate hospitals and opportunities for treatment to improve the success rate.
