Women over 40 ask: Can I still get pregnant? IVF seems like the answer—but is it?
Truth: IVF helps, but it’s not magic. Age still matters. “IVF boosts chances, but egg quality drops with age.” — Dr Parul Prakash, Reproductive Medicine, IVF expert
Truth: Yes, they can! Especially with donor eggs. “We’ve seen pregnancies even in the 50s,” says Dr Prakash. But it comes with medical risks.
Truth: Nope! Blocked tubes, PCOS, male infertility—young women need IVF too. It’s about fertility challenges, not age.
Truth: Not anymore. Doctors now aim for single embryo transfers—for safer pregnancies.
Truth: It’s a tough journey. Hormones. Egg retrieval. Emotional rollercoaster. Pricey too. “There’s nothing ‘quick’ about IVF.” — Dr Lavi Sidhu, Fertility expert
Truth: IVF opens doors, but age still plays a role. Emotional maturity Energy, health, long-term planning—also critical.
