At IVF Florida, we understand the emotional and physical complexities of trying to conceive later in life.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

A woman in her 40s has a less than 5 percent chance of becoming pregnant on her own each month. For women between 45 and 49, the chance of pregnancy with her own eggs can become as low as 1 percent.\u00a0 Age not only impacts the likelihood of becoming pregnant,\u00a0<\/span>but it also affects the success rates of infertility treatment options as well as the risks of pregnancy itself.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

Because of these increased challenges, patients over 40 are encouraged to pursue a basic fertility work-up to identify any factors in addition to their age that could be potential roadblocks to achieving a pregnancy.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

\u201cWe encourage women over 40 who are trying to conceive to see a fertility specialist right away to review any optimization they can begin,\u201d shares\u00a0Marc Gualtieri, M.D.<\/a>, who sees patients at IVF FLORIDA’s\u00a0Jupiter<\/a>\u00a0and Margate<\/a>\u00a0locations. \u201cTime is of the essence when it comes to fertility treatment success, so we want to see those patients earlier on, so we can move forward quickly and effectively.\u201d\u00a0\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

What to expect\u00a0<\/h2>

When you first meet your fertility specialist, there are a few tests they may perform so they can have a better understanding of your individual case.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>
