Failure of IVF treatment
This is the most common complication of treatment. The likely reasons for this failure are canceled cycles (approximately 10% of treatment cycles will be abandoned before egg collection), failure to collect eggs (about 1%), failure of fertilization (about 5%), and failure of implantation (this could be due to defective embryo or endometrium, or poor synchronization).
A significant portion of normal embryos are chromosomally abnormal and this proportion increases with advanced maternal age.
The IVF (in-vitro fertilization) procedure is considered by some, to be one of the most stressful infertility treatments. Failure of treatment can result in emotional strain, psychological stress and depression. Some couples may require psychological counseling. In addition, couples may encounter psychological difficulties if a multiple pregnancy occurs.
