In Vitro Fertilization Failure? Find Out the
Reasons Why
2

• In Vitro Fertilization (IVF) refers to a form of
  assisted reproduction procedure that involves the
  collection of mature eggs from the ovaries of an
  infertile woman and fertilizing them in a lab
  with a healthy and mature sperm from the partner.

3

• The embryo is given 3 5 days to develop before
  being inserted in the uterus where will hopefully
  implant and be carried to term.

4

• IVF is one of the most dependable fertility
  treatments that we have today. It is used to
  correct both male infertility and female
  infertility. Today IVF is responsible for over 3
  million births in the United States and have been
  an ideal treatment for many forms of infertility
  including low sperm count, fibroids, adenomyosis,
  recurrent loss of pregnancy, scarring of the
  uterine cavity, and endometriosis.

5

• But in every occasion is IVF procedure usually
  successful. Sometimes IVF procedures will fail
  and certain couple could record multiple IVF
  implantation failures.

6

• This rarely happens but if it does the reasons
  might include the following.

7

• Death of the embryo. Many human embryos will die
  before the fifth day. However some of the embryos
  can also die after the fifth day. This happens
  even after the embryos have been inserted in the
  womb where they are expected to implant. This is
  the major cause of IVF failures.

8

• The age of the female. With the many IVF
  procedures that have been done, statistics
  clearly show that for women who are under the
  ages of 35, the success rates have been slightly
  above 45 and around 15 for women who range
  between 40 42 years.

9

• Weakness in the embryo. The truth is rarely does
  the sperm or the state of the uterus contributes
  to failed IVF implantation. The tests that are
  often done prior to the IVF process are meant
  firstly to eliminate these possibilities. Rather
  if the embryo is weak it will fail to implant
  properly.

10

• Chromosomal abnormality. Chromosomal abnormality
  in human embryos increases significantly as the
  woman ages. They often start at early 30s and
  increase very fast such that by the mid-40s over
  75 of human embryos are chromosomally abnormal.

Conclusion

• Switching the egg from a young egg donor will be
  highly successful. It eliminates the many
  weaknesses that an older egg will have and will
  enhance a quick implantation. If IVF fails,
  gestational surrogacy will be a great option to
  go with.
