With the continuous development and progress of social and economic development, the level of medicine has also been greatly improved, for example, in vitro fertilization is a major breakthrough in medicine. With the emergence of in vitro fertilization, many infertile couples have begun to choose to use it to cultivate new lives. However, for those who are preparing for in vitro fertilization, the biggest concern is the success rate. So, what is the success rate of in vitro fertilization? Next, let's step into the world of in vitro fertilization together.
What exactly is IVF? IVF, also known as in vitro fertilization combined with embryo transfer technology (IVF), refers to the process of extracting eggs from a woman's body and sperm from a man's body, placing them together in a test tube for fertilization, and then transferring the precursor of the embryo, the "fertilized egg," back into the mother's uterus to develop into a fetus and give birth to a baby. The entire process specifically includes techniques such as superovulation, egg retrieval, semen processing, in vitro fertilization, embryo culture, and embryo transfer. So any link could potentially lead to the failure of in vitro fertilization.
As a major breakthrough in human reproduction, in vitro fertilization has achieved a success rate of 30% -60%. There are many factors that affect the success of in vitro fertilization, including the patient's age, physical condition, and medical condition. In addition, the success of in vitro fertilization requires the success of every step in the entire process to ensure the birth of the baby.
Related studies have shown that the success rate of in vitro fertilization is associated with individual factors in women as follows: for every 5 years of age increase in women, the success rate of in vitro fertilization decreases by 5% -10%. That is to say, the older a woman is, the lower the probability of successful IVF.
Although the emergence of in vitro fertilization has brought great convenience to infertile patients, not all infertile patients are suitable for in vitro fertilization.
The editor would like to remind everyone that infertility is mostly caused by physical factors and unhealthy lifestyle habits. Patients should form good lifestyle habits and take good care of their bodies. Unless absolutely necessary, it is better not to choose in vitro fertilization.
