Evidence based IVF management in aging women Prof. Bart CJM Fauser, MD, PhD Dept. Reprod Medicine & Gynecology University Medical Center, Utrecht, The Netherlands
Effect of age of women on fertility rate • Esablished populations • Hutterites (1921-1930) • Geneva (1600-1649) • Canada (1700-1730) • Normandy (1760-1790) • Tunis (1840-1859) • Normandy (1674-1742) • Norway (1874-1876) • Iran (1940-1950) Mencken, Science 1986

Interventions aiming to increase the number of oocytes retrieved
Advocated low response approaches- systemic review and meta-analysis Kyrou F&S 2009
Conclusions 2011
IVF in aged women- concluding statements • Age of women undergoing IVF is increasing every year • Ovarian aging gives rise to decreased outcomes • Ovarian aging/low response is irreversible • No effective intervention exists (next to oocyte donation) • Insufficiently studied area, deserves more attention
Ovarian follicles in relation to age “we cannot stimulate follicles which do NOT exist” (Garcia Velasco)
