Why is the success rate of IVF low for older women? Nowadays, it is common for women to have children at an older age, especially older women who want to have a second child. Pregnancy is more difficult due to age. Therefore, many older women want to use IVF technology to help realize their wish to have children.
As we all know, IVF is an assisted reproductive technology, but there are different physical conditions for the patient's physical condition, and the situation of IVF will be different, especially for older women, the success rate of IVF is low, which is a relatively common thing.
First: Older women have a high rate of IVF abortion.
IVF is more than just ovulation induction, fertilization, embryo transfer and pregnancy test. More importantly, when you are pregnant with a baby, you have to be born smoothly is the greatest wish of the pregnant mother.
With the increase of age, women are prone to chromosomal abnormalities, which also have a great impact on embryo implantation and later development.
Second: decreased ovarian function.
The quality of ovarian function is related to the quality of ovulation, and the quality of egg cells is related to the success or failure of IVF. In older women, ovarian function gradually declines with age, and it is difficult to obtain mature egg cells.
But without an egg cell, pregnancy is very difficult. Therefore, for older women, women with special physical conditions and poor ovarian function, in the case that mature egg cells cannot be obtained in one induction, eggs may need to be obtained in the case of multiple stimulation, otherwise it is difficult to achieve the purpose of pregnancy through IVF. Here we also need to advise female friends to give birth as soon as possible, don't work too hard for your career when you are young, accept what your child should come, and don't be blind. When you get older, you can't get it if you want to have children.
Third: high incidence of diseases of the reproductive system.
The female reproductive system is also a prerequisite for successful pregnancy, and many older women are prone to reproductive system diseases, such as uterine fibroids, adenomyosis, etc., which may reduce the success rate of embryo transfer. Therefore, if an elderly woman wants to obtain a high success rate of IVF, she must first ensure that the ovaries function is normal, and secondly, the uterine condition must be good, and there are no factors that affect the implantation and development of the embryo after examination, so that there is a chance to obtain almost a successful pregnancy through IVF.
