Important factors affecting success in IVF

There are many different factors that affect the success rate of IVF treatment. First of all, the effects of the methods applied by the treatment center to the island, the success of baby care, and the experienced staff are very important. In order for IVF treatment to be successful, the success rate of fertilization-fertilization in the laboratory of the treatment center is under investigation. This rate should be around 80% and above for treatment centers. IVF centers with less success than this rate should not be preferred for treatment.

Paying attention to the examination and appointment times given to the candidates also seriously affects the success of the treatment. During the IVF treatment, some important points recommended by the doctor also have an effect on success.

It is forbidden to have sexual intercourse 3 days before the IVF treatment and for 10 days after the treatment.

Environments that will adversely affect the treatment should be avoided.

Hot environments such as Turkish bath and sauna negatively affect both sperm and egg health.

Heavy exercises should also be stopped 3 months before the start of treatment.

Dieting is also dangerous for the expectant mother.

Another factor affecting the IVF success rate is biochemical pregnancy. Biochemical pregnancy, which is defined as a positive pregnancy test from blood, affects success by about 50%. The effect of pregnancies that can be visualized by ultrasound on the success rate of IVF is considered to be around 40%.

The fact that the expectant mother has had several miscarriages before also reduces the probability of success to be achieved.

If both the mother is older and the father has azoospermia, the chance of success decreases from 0% to 20%.
