Advanced Maternal Age and Its Relation to IVF
How Does Age Affect Fertility?
As women get older, typically after the age of 35, fertility begins to decline due to natural changes in the ovaries. These changes include:
- Decreased Ovarian Reserve: The number of eggs in the ovaries decreases over time, making it harder to get pregnant naturally.
- Decline in Egg Quality: The remaining eggs may be of lower quality, which increases the risk of chromosomal abnormalities like Down syndrome. This also makes it more difficult for the eggs to be fertilized or lead to a successful pregnancy.
- Increased Risk of Miscarriage: As egg quality declines with age, so does the success rate of a healthy pregnancy. Women of advanced maternal age have a higher risk of miscarriage due to the higher chance of genetic abnormalities in the eggs.
In this situation, IVF becomes a powerful solution. By using assisted reproductive technology, IVF can help overcome these challenges, especially with the help of advanced fertility treatments like PGT-A (Preimplantation Genetic Testing), which can help select the healthiest embryos for implantation. For women in Delhi, Dr. Roshi Satija at God's Grace IVF and Fertility Centre is an experienced IVF specialist who can guide you through this process effectively.
How IVF Helps Women of Advanced Maternal Age
IVF helps women over 35 by:
- Maximizing Egg Production: With the use of medications, IVF can stimulate the ovaries to produce multiple eggs, increasing the chances of successful fertilization.
- Fertilizing Eggs in the Lab: In IVF, the eggs are fertilized outside the body in a lab, ensuring better control over the process and increasing the chances of pregnancy.
- Genetic Screening (PGT-A): Embryos can be tested for chromosomal abnormalities before being implanted, which greatly reduces the risk of miscarriage and enhances the chances of having a healthy baby.
If you are considering IVF, Dr. Roshi Satija and her team at God's Grace IVF are skilled in using the latest technologies to maximize your chances of success. With the right treatment plan, IVF can make pregnancy possible even for women facing age-related fertility challenges.

Benefits of Egg Freezing for Women of Advanced Maternal Age
Egg freezing offers women a way to preserve their fertility for the future. This is especially helpful for those who may want to delay pregnancy due to career, health, or other personal reasons.
- Fertility Preservation: By freezing eggs at a younger age, women have the ability to store healthier eggs, which can be used for IVF later in life.
- Increased Control: Freezing eggs gives women control over their fertility. They can choose to become pregnant when they are ready, without worrying about the decline in egg quality.
- Improved IVF Success Rates: Using frozen eggs from a younger age significantly increases the likelihood of a successful IVF outcome when they are eventually thawed and fertilized.
If you are considering freezing your eggs, the God's Grace IVF and Fertility Centre offers this service to help protect your future fertility. Dr. Satija’s experience and state-of-the-art technology ensure the best care possible.
Risks and Challenges of Advanced Maternal Age
While IVF increases the chances of pregnancy, there are still risks associated with advanced maternal age, including:
- Lower IVF Success Rates: For women over 40, the success rate of IVF can decrease, even with the best treatments. It’s essential to have realistic expectations and a comprehensive treatment plan.
- Increased Pregnancy Complications: Women over 35 are at higher risk for conditions like gestational diabetes, preeclampsia (high blood pressure), and placenta previa (where the placenta covers the cervix), which can affect the pregnancy and delivery.
- Higher Risk of Multiple Pregnancies: IVF increases the chance of twins, triplets, or more. While multiple pregnancies are not uncommon, they do carry additional risks for both the mother and the babies, such as premature birth.
At God's Grace IVF, Dr. Roshi Satija provides personalized care and counseling to address these risks and ensure that both mother and baby are closely monitored during the IVF process.
Emotional and Psychological Support for Advanced Maternal Age Patients
Conceiving later in life can bring about feelings of anxiety, stress, and uncertainty. The emotional toll of infertility can be significant, but you don’t have to go through it alone.
- Emotional Support Services: God's Grace IVF offers counseling and emotional support to help women and couples manage the stress and emotional burden of IVF.
- Support Groups: Being part of a support group with others who are going through similar experiences can help reduce feelings of isolation and provide encouragement.
