How is IVF done?
With IVF, some couples with infertility problems are able to have their own children. If a couple has a high risk of having a baby with genetic problems, they may use IVF to become pregnant using the eggs or sperm of healthy donors. IVF results in pregnancy and the birth of a baby in 30 to 40% of the women who have the procedure between the ages of 25 and 37. The success rate becomes much lower after the age of 37.
