The 6th IVF might just be the charm!

Submitted by Angie Mon 02/02/2009
Couples with a failed IVF shouldn’t conclude they can’t have a baby. They shouldn't give up so quickly, according to a new study published in The New England Journal of Medicine.

In the largest study ever to try to clarify the accuracy of in vitro fertilization (IVF), researchers at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, Harvard Medical School and Boston IVF found that additional attempts dramatically increased the success rate. A woman younger than 35, for example, had a 65 to 86 percent chance of giving birth after six IVF cycles.

IVF is an expensive treatment, ranging anywhere from $7,000 to $15,000 per cycle. It's also complicated; women take hormones to stimulate ovulation; doctors then mix the eggs and sperm in a petri dish, creating embryos that are inserted into the woman's uterus. These embryos must attach to the wall of the uterus for a pregnancy to result.
