Talkback: IVF success rate - how often does it really work?

Replies

  • Hello to everybody!

    I would like to add some information about statistic.

    I read that in 2013 more then 1,5% of American children were born with the help of IVF procedure. Every year the number of children born after IVF increases constantly. So, in 2013 already 1,5% of all kids were born after IVF procedure and the number of twins and triplets considerably decreased. According to forecasts of experts, the percentage of similar children will grow gradually, and will soon compare with the number of traditional conception.

    The greatest success of in vitro fertilization is observed in young women before 35. It is really true that the peak period for women is 25 - 28, when it is easier to get pregnant by IVF. In this age group, women use their own eggs, that lead to 40% of successful conceptions. In case when women used their frozen eggs the level of success reached 44%. However with woman’s age increment the coefficient of success has been decreasing. So, in age group from 38 to 40 it fell to 35%, in women from 41 to 42 to 31%, and in women after 43 year’s old to 21%. But the age does not the reason to surrender and abandon your dream to become a mum.

    So, good luck to everybody!
