According to world statistics, only one out of every four attempts IVF It is successful and leads to the birth of the child. In recent years there has been a slow but steady increase in the number of attempts.
A team of researchers from Stanford University have developed an experimental test, with which it will be possible to significantly improve the accuracy of forecasts technique, which is now used by doctors involved IVF . If expectant parents first try to get pregnant with the help of IVF failed, then they can expect a normal prognosis about the success of these attempts, based on age. Meanwhile, the cost per cycle IVF in US hospitals is an impressive $ 12,400, on average, and the value of women's psychological stress that follows the failed attempt to assess and difficult to do.
The researchers hope that their new test will help get rid of a large part of the uncertainty. The new analysis is based on the careful handling of data from the previous cycle IVF And it does not require additional clinical or laboratory findings.
The computer model accounts for these failures, and predicts the success of the second cycle, which is true in 60% of cases. It is much more accurate information than the forecast based on the age of the parents, which is issued today.
In compiling the forecast takes into account age, hormonal levels, endometrial thickness and body mass index, and other factors affecting the success or failure IVF . After the first cycle all of these data are known.
