Do you know how the ovarian reserve is measured?

Do you know how the ovarian reserve is measured?

Maybe you do, or maybe you don’t. But, in any case, it is a subject that you —and all women— are surely interested in, as it provides key information for making decisions about motherhood, essential for those who do not rule out becoming a mother in the future. Your ovarian reserve is very easy to test, as all you need is a vaginal ultrasound and a blood test. In fact, you can ask for an ovarian reserve assessment at your annual gynaecological check-up. But before telling you how it is tested, it is important that you learn about some...

Here is how we take care of your frozen embryos

If you have frozen embryos, surely you would like to be able to watch through a peephole how they are being looked after in the laboratory: where they are being kept, how they are being handled, what systems are being used to identify and preserve them, or how they will be thawed when the time comes to use them. It is only natural. Your embryos are the result of a lot of work and effort, not to mention all the hopes and expectations you place in them. Furthermore, embryos are an extremely sensitive biological material. Taking care of something...

Assisted reproduction treatments have high success rates, but these rates are only statistical data. The circumstances of each person and each embryo are different in each attempt and treatment. Therefore, it is difficult to predict how the process will go exactly. In addition, many factors must be taken into account: the mother’s age, lifestyle and uterine receptivity, and the embryo’s own ability to implant and develop, even if it is of good quality. Even in egg donation treatments, where the egg donor is always a young woman, failures do occur. But even if we are aware of this, the...

Can eggs be rejuvenated?

It is well known that time affects the quality of our eggs and that their number naturally decreases. This process accelerates from the age of 35 and the mechanism behind it is not yet clear. However, it is thought that individual genetic factors may influence this, since not all women have the same quality of ovarian reserve and do not start menopause at the same time. For this reason, some researchers are trying to find out how to speed up or delay this process by studying possible genetic alterations, while others are trying to find out whether it is...

Success rates in assisted reproduction treatment: What are they and what do they mean?

Success rates in assisted reproduction treatment: What are they and what do they mean?

Posted by | 4 Oct, 2021 | , | 0 |

Success rates are percentages that show the chances of getting a pregnancy offered by different assisted reproduction treatments. They can vary depending on each centre and on the technique, but, in general, high values indicate that the centre works efficiently and offers good results. Nevertheless, to interpret them correctly, you have to “read the fine print” and take into account what exactly they refer to, since each centre can present them in the way that best suits them and, therefore, they are not always comparable. In this post, Dr. Buenaventura Coroleu, a consultant of Dexeus Mujer’s Reproductive Medicine Service,...
