Success rate of 60 year old IVF infants
In Vitro Fertilization (IVF) technology has brought hope to many infertile couples, and even made it possible for older women to become mothers. However, with the growth of age, women's fertility will gradually decline, so the success rate of trying IVF at 60 years old is relatively low. The following will discuss the success rate of 60 year old IVF and related influencing factors from four aspects: age factor, health status, egg quality and hospital technical level.
1. Age factor
The fertility of women gradually decreases with the growth of age, and 60 year old women often have entered menopause. After menopause, the number and quality of eggs in women's ovaries decreased sharply, which affected the success rate of IVF. Research shows that the probability of successful pregnancy of 60 year old women through IVF is only about 2%.
In addition, age also has an impact on embryo implantation rate and abortion rate. The aging of women will lead to the decline of endometrial quality, which is not conducive to embryo implantation; At the same time, the abortion rate of women over 50 years old is also high, because the risk of fetal chromosomal abnormalities is increased.
2. Health
Health status is another important factor determining the success rate of IVF. Women aged 60 generally have a series of health problems, such as hypertension, diabetes, cardiovascular disease, etc. These diseases will increase the risk during IVF, which may lead to surgical complications or affect the healthy development of embryos. Therefore, before IVF, doctors usually make a comprehensive assessment of women's health to see if IVF is appropriate.
3. Egg quality
Egg quality is one of the key factors that determine the success rate of IVF. With the growth of age, the number and quality of follicles in women's ovaries will gradually decrease. A 60 year old woman is likely to have only a small number of eggs with poor quality, which will affect egg fertilization and embryonic development. Therefore, among women who are 60 years old for IVF, eggs need to be taken in multiple cycles to collect high-quality eggs and improve the success rate.
4. Hospital technical level
The technical level of hospitals will also affect the success rate of 60 year old IVF babies. When selecting hospitals, we should pay attention to whether the hospitals are equipped with advanced IVF equipment and professional medical teams. First class hospitals usually have a higher success rate and can provide all-round support and assistance in the whole IVF process.
To sum up, the success rate of 60 year old IVF is relatively low, only about 2%. Age and health are important factors that affect the success rate. The quality of women's eggs and the level of hospital technology will also affect the results. Therefore, for women over 60 years old, they should fully understand and evaluate their own physical and mental health before IVF, and pay attention to their technical level when choosing hospitals to improve the success rate.
