The expected cumulative incidence of live birth for patients starting IVF treatment at age 41 years or older

ConclusionsMultiple repeat IVF cycles in women aged 41–44 years offers a reasonable long-term success rate. After six cycles of treatment, about 29% of women of advanced reproductive age using autologous oocytes expected to achieve a live birth. This information might assist in fertility counselling and managing patients’ expectations by adjusting the appropriate treatment strategy and number of IVF cycle attempts, especially in countries in which egg donation is prohibited or when multiple repeated IVF cycles attempts are financially affordable.
