Everything You Need To Know About In Vitro Fertilization
Age

Age may be one of the most important factors in determining fertility and potential success with IVF. Women are born with all of her eggs, and as she ages so do her eggs, diminishing in both quantity and quality. Around the age of 32, a woman’s chances of conceiving begin to significantly decline. The male partner’s age can also affect conception, risk of miscarriage and baby’s health. It is possible to check both the quality of eggs and sperm. Some women have eggs found to be younger in age than their biological age. For others, their eggs can appear older in quality than their actual age. A blood test called Follicle Stimulating Hormone (FSH) can determine the quality of a woman’s eggs and what their chances of fertilization are.
