Success rate
IVF is an assisted reproductive technology, which is selected by many older women to realize their reproductive dreams. However, for 60 year old women, the success rate and risks of IVF need to be carefully considered.
First, the success rate of 60 year old women in IVF is relatively low. According to the data from several research institutions, female age is one of the important factors affecting the success rate of IVF. The older a woman is, the higher the risk of ovarian function decline, so the quality and quantity of eggs will be reduced. 60 year old women usually have ovarian function close to or completely stopped, leading to a decline in the success rate.
Secondly, the success rate of IVF is also affected by other factors. For example, women's health status, whether there are chronic diseases, egg quality, fertilized egg quality, and adaptability to implantation into the uterus. These factors may affect the success rate of IVF.
However, although the success rate of 60 year old women in IVF is low, there are still some cases of success. In fact, some top reproductive hospitals, such as the Langnell Medical Center of New York University in the United States and the Reproductive Medical Center of Cambridge University in the United Kingdom, have reported that they have achieved success in IVF on 60 year old women.
risk
There are certain risks during IVF, and these risks may be more significant for 60 year old women. First of all, the body hormone level of 60 year old women will generally decline further, which may lead to their difficulty in producing and maintaining sufficient quantity and quality of healthy eggs. This will increase the risk of low success rate of IVF.
Secondly, 60 year old women face higher risks in pregnancy. For example, older pregnant women increase the probability of suffering from pregnancy complications such as hypertension, diabetes, heart disease, etc. These complications can increase the health risks of mothers and fetuses.
In addition, because the number of 60 year old women is limited or almost non-existent, it is usually necessary to use donated eggs from young women. However, using other people's eggs can lead to other potential risks such as genetic problems or immune rejection.
Finally, 60 year old women may face greater challenges in raising babies. The limitation of age and physical condition may lead to their insufficient ability to take care of infants, thus affecting their health and growth.
summary
In general, the success rate of 60 year old women in IVF is relatively low, which is limited by many factors. Female age and physical condition are one of the important factors affecting the success rate of IVF. In addition, 60 year old women also face higher risk of complications during pregnancy and challenges of parenting ability.
However, some top reproductive hospitals reported that they had achieved success in IVF on 60 year old women, which gave some older women a glimmer of hope. However, 60 year old women who want to have IVF should fully understand the potential risks and make decisions under the guidance of doctors.
