Title: When IVF Failure Is Not An Option


1
When IVF Failure Is Not An Option
2
Intodcution
  • Although IVF success rates are improving all the
    time it can often take a number of cycles before
    a patient will see a successful outcome, if at
    all. As someone who has experienced a failed IVF
    treatment cycle, as well as a cycle that ended in
    an early miscarriage, I know how devastating both
    outcomes can be.

3
Focus on the follow-up appointment
  • In the first few days, and possibly weeks,
    following a failed cycle it can be difficult to
    contemplate another IVF cycle, especially a fresh
    one. The grief can be so overwhelming that its
    impossible to fathom putting yourself in such a
    situation again.

4
Understand why the IVF treatment failed
  • Try not to leave your follow up an appointment
    without ensuring you fully understand why your
    treatment may have failed. Many of the IVF
    patients I spoke to who experienced failed cycles
    didnt realize that there were signs throughout
    the cycle that their odds of success were low.
    For example, if the fertilization rates were very
    low, or the quality of the
    embryos on transfer day was poor.

5
Dont rush into anything
  • When IVF fails it can feel as though you are back
    at square one. The back-up plan has failed and it
    can feel like youve run out of options and there
    is no hope left. Having probably spent many years
    trying to get pregnant naturally prior to
    attempting IVF treatment,many people feel as
    though they need to move on without wasting
    more time.

6
Try to focus on what did go well
  • Even if the ultimate outcome is negative, there
    will probably be plenty of aspects of the cycle
    that did go well. Try to focus on these as much
    as possible, especially if considering another
    IVF cycle in future.
