With the change of the rhythm of life, late marriage and late childbearing have become a common choice for the public, the first period of marriage can be the moment of meeting love, and it is more difficult to miss the first period of fertility to get pregnant, so that many older women consult the question of IVF, let's take a look.
How is advanced age defined?
In daily life, elderly women can still be full of girlishness;
In terms of childbearing, 35+ women will be defined as advanced age.
At present, in medicine, most people believe that more than 35 years old is the fertility boundary of advanced age, 45 years old is the standard of ultra-advanced age, and the evaluation of whether elderly women can have children mainly depends on ovarian function and fertility ability, so as to ** some conditions of elderly women in fertility.
What is the relationship between advanced age and fertility?
Childbirth needs to be done as soon as possible;
Giving birth at an advanced age may face many difficulties.
Elderly women, with the growth of age, ovarian function will also decline, the quality and quantity of eggs will decline, fertility problems will face a greater test, there is more than half a year without contraception and pregnancy should be actively checked, in the choice of the best program, doctors may also tend to actively choose assisted reproduction suggestions, of course, "it is difficult for a good woman to cook without rice", if the eggs are not of high quality, the quality of the embryo is also worrying, and the success rate of IVF will be relatively low.
The simplest assessment at present is ovarian fertility reserve AMH (anti-Müllerian test-tube hormone).
1. If AMH >1ng ml: ovarian fertility reserve function is good.
2. AMH<1ng ml: poor ovarian reserve.
3、amh<0.5 ng ml: extremely poor ovarian reserve.
Can elderly women have assisted reproduction?
01. Look at ovarian function
The ovaries are the organs that produce eggs, and their function is related to age.
02. Look at the endometrium
A good endometrium is the key to the successful implantation of the embryo, and if the endometrium is okay for elderly women, assisted reproduction can also be done.
03. Look at the physical condition
The tolerance of pregnancy in old age is limited, but now people are well maintained, and their physical fitness is generally better, so there is no problem in getting pregnant.
What is the success rate of IVF for women over 40 years old?
In fact, needless to say, everyone understands that the success rate of elderly women doing IVF is generally lower than that of young women, but this does not mean that there is no possibility of childbearing, for women over 40 years old, it depends on the specific physical condition, because assisted reproduction still depends on some of the factors mentioned above, which requires the woman to have a good uterine and ovarian function, if there is no problem, the probability of success is still very large, and the most important thing is that everyone must work hard.
Fertility has a lot to do with age
But it is also inseparable from the persistence of the sisters.
