  1. What Are the Factors Affecting IVF Success Rate? MedMonks Health started this petition to Healthcare IVF is the most effective way to help a woman who is struggling to conceive. This treatment is a series of stages, rather than a single treatment. But how can you know whether IVF treatment will be a success for you? IVF is one of the most effective Assisted Reproductive Technologies (ART) in the world, but whether it will be effective for a patient depends on a wide range of circumstances. Key factors which can affect the probable outcome of IVF treatment are: 1) AGE Reproductive age plays a significant impact on egg and quality of the embryo. Women of age 35 years or less have live birth rate of 50 percent. Whereas, there is approximately 25 percent live birth rate in women between 40 to 42 years of age. The success rate of IVF declines with decrease in the number of eggs within the ovaries. Number of eggs decline after the age of 32, and the fertility potential declines subsequently. 2) LIFESTYLE FACTORS Lifestyle factors such as smoking habits and body weight affect the success rate of the treatment. These can be controlled.

  2. oSmoking: Smokers face a serious reproductive consequence. In male smokers, the fertilizing capacity of the sperm reduces, also the embryos from that sperm display lower rates of implantation. oObesity: Being overweight can have a strong effect on IVF success. Obesity can affect your menstrual cycle and ovulation as well as how your body processes fertility medications and hormones. 3) TYPE OF FERTILITY PROBLEM There are several other fertility problems which are linked with less IVF success. These fertility problems are: oDual Infertility Factor oOvarian Dysfunction oFibroid Tumours and Uterine Abnormalities oTime Period of Infertility 4) PREVIOUS PREGNANCY The chances of getting pregnant with IVF increase if you have been pregnant before and have carried a baby to term (with or without IVF). Persistent miscarriages reduce the possibility of IVF to be successful as it may show that the specific infertility challenge you are going through is not the one that responds well to IVF. 5) SELECTION OF FERTILITY CLINIC Fertility experts have a major impact on the experience of IVF as they are involved at every stage of the treatment cycle. There are several factors that should be taken into consideration while selecting a fertility clinic. These are: oSuccess Rate: A fertility clinic should have a proven track record. Measure of success rate also matters. To know about the success rate of the clinic you should ask some specific numbers about the following: oLive birth rate per IVF cycle oPregnancy rate for couple’s age group oRate of patients with multiple pregnancies oPregnancy ratio per embryo transfer oAge and Fertility Problems: A clinic which has a success for patients with a similar profile may provide a higher chance of IVF success.

  3. oExperience and training of staff: How long the doctors, staff, and technicians have been practicing in the field is important. 6) LABORATORY QUALITY A laboratory plays a vital role in the success of an IVF treatment. The fertilization process as well as the careful culturing of the embryos before transfer involves a pristine environment. An excellent laboratory should provide: oQualified and Experienced Embryologist: A highly qualified and experienced embryologist plays a vital role during these moments. oAir quality: Excellent air quality is a must for the treatment to be successful as microorganisms such as germs or fungi can have a hostile effect on developing embryos. oTemperature and light: Both of these factors are crucial in the first few subtle hours and days of development. India provides high quality treatment with top clinics and hospitals which have the latest technologies, facilities, and highly qualified and experienced doctors and nurses. The IVF treatment in India is cheaper as compared to other countries like USA or UK. Global patients and childless couples prefer to get IVF treatment in India because of these facilities provided here.
