Over the past five decades, it’s estimated that around 13 million babies have been conceived thanks to IVF. The fertility treatment has helped families around the world have children. But new research suggests that older women face a significantly lower chance of conceiving, even when donor eggs are used from a younger woman. This challenges the idea that donor eggs can “reset” an individual’s reproductive clock. In our conversations, we bring together three women to share their experiences of the physical challenges and heartbreak of unsuccessful IVF treatment. Dee remembers a sense of isolation, “You’re surrounded by lots of people, family and friends. But there can also be a very lonely journey because a lot of people don’t know what to do or say or how to support.” Lana experienced not just sadness, but guilt for other people in her life, “There's this feeling that I carried for a long time that I let my husband down, like because of me he couldn't become a dad… My in-laws, I was their hope for being grandparents.” We also hear from doctors on evolving attitudes to IVF treatment and the options available to fertility patients in their countries.
