Is 45 year old female IVF suitable?
With the progress of modern medicine, IVF technology has become an important means for infertile couples to realize their reproductive dreams. However, many people will worry about the adaptability of female age to IVF. This article will elaborate on the suitability of 45 year old women for IVF from four aspects, and analyze it based on the experience of actual hospitals.
1. Egg quality and quantity
The age of women is one of the important factors that affect the quality and quantity of eggs. With the growth of age, women's ovarian function gradually declines, and the quality and quantity of eggs will also decline accordingly. Generally speaking, the quality and quantity of eggs of 45 year old women have decreased significantly. However, many hospitals still help women improve their success rate through special technical means, such as follicle stimulation, egg donation, etc. For example, a certain hospital has successfully assisted 45 year old women to achieve IVF in the past few years, indicating that even older women still have the opportunity to obtain healthy eggs.
In addition, some studies also show that older women may have a certain proportion of genetic disease risk. Therefore, when choosing hospitals, it is recommended that women should carry out comprehensive genetic testing to eliminate potential risks.
2. Physical health and physical preparation
To carry out IVF, women need to have good physical health and physiological preparation. 45 year old women may have some changes in their physical functions, such as decreased metabolic rate and uterine function. However, this does not mean that IVF cannot be carried out.
Many hospitals will evaluate the suitability according to the specific situation of women and carry out relevant inspection items. A certain hospital provided special physical health assessment and physiological preparation courses in the IVF project for 45 year old women to improve the success rate of IVF on the premise of ensuring women's health.
3. Psychological and social support
The process of IVF is long and tedious, which plays a vital role in the psychological and social support of couples. 45 year old women face a lot of physiological and psychological pressure in a short time, and need full understanding and support.
Many hospitals have noticed this and provided professional services such as psychological consultation and social support for 45 year old women. A certain hospital provided a team of psychologists to help couples understand and cope with the problems encountered in IVF. These support measures will help to reduce women's pressure and improve the smooth progress of IVF.
4. Success rate and risk
The last aspect is the success rate and risk of IVF for 45 year old women. Due to the influence of women's age, the success rate will be correspondingly reduced, while complications and risks will be relatively increased.
According to the statistics of several medical institutions, the success rate of IVF for 45 year old women is about 10% to 20%. In addition, in the process of IVF, women may face risks including ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome, endometriosis, premature delivery, etc. Therefore, women should fully understand and measure these risks before deciding to carry out IVF.
Summary
Considering the above four aspects, we can draw the conclusion that there are risks and challenges for 45 year old women to carry out IVF. However, under the condition of reasonable evaluation of self conditions and selection of formal hospitals, IVF is still a feasible way to realize the dream of fertility. After full communication and consultation with doctors, women can make appropriate choices according to their own conditions.
