IVF: factors that can influence the result
June 4, 2021
Are you planning to undergo IVF and want to maximise your chances of success? Here's what you need to know before you start your treatment.
Your health is the most important factor
A healthy person is more likely to have a successful IVF. A good diet and a well-cared-for lifestyle count. On the other hand, being overweight can negatively affect the outcome of IVF, both on the mother’s and father’s side. Smoking is also an important factor, as a smoking couple will see their reproductive qualities (sperm and oocyte quality) decrease.
Youth, a significant advantage
The younger you are, the more likely your IVF will succeed. This is because your ovaries will react better to the treatment, as the oocyte reserve of each woman decreases with age.
Above all, take your treatment well!
As you can see, your hormone treatment is the key to your success. Following your doctor’s instructions and rhythm will allow you to be in the best possible condition on the big day and therefore a better chance to become pregnant.
