Patient's question:
Before, my husband and I went to the Reproductive Endocrinology department of Beijing University Third Hospital. The doctor there said I had symptoms of dysmenorrhea and needed to undergo in vitro fertilization. At that time, I was quite puzzled because many people around me also have dysmenorrhea, so why can they get pregnant while I can't? Then I asked the doctor if there were any other issues with me, and the doctor said no. I checked my test reports and found that my vaginal ultrasound was normal. The smear analysis of my thin cell test showed one case of severe inflammation, but everything else was normal. It also stated that the smear quality was satisfactory, and my menstrual cycle is regular every month.My husband's semen analysis results: Total number of sperm analyzed: 210, Number of normally shaped sperm: 17, Percentage of normally shaped sperm: 8.10%, Number of abnormally shaped sperm heads: 193, Percentage of abnormally shaped sperm heads: 9
Doctor's answer:
Hello, the success rate of IVF depends on many factors, mainly including hospital facilities, doctors' technical skills, and patients' own conditions (such as age, uterus, and ovaries). Among these, the impact of the female's age is the most significant. Generally, in women aged 25-35, the success rate of IVF is higher than the average 30%-40%, but after 35, the success rate gradually declines, reaching around 20% by the age of 40.Additionally, poor male sperm quality can be treated naturally, and it is not necessarily required to undergo IVF. It is recommended to have a check-up at a regular hospital. Wishing you good health.
