What is Low/Diminished Ovarian Reserve?

What is IVF Treatment?

What is Low/Diminished Ovarian Reserve? The ability of a woman’s ovary to produce good quality of eggs (leading to the formation of high-quality embryos) is called as Ovarian Reserve. One of the major conditions resulting in female infertility diminished ovarian reserve is described as the formation of low number and/or poor quality of eggs in a woman’s ovaries or impaired growth of the current eggs. Delhi IVF has the specialization in treating women with diminished/low ovarian reserve, born out of our 25 years long research on the condition

Women, who don’t get the right treatment, often find conceiving difficult. However, even if they conceive somehow they suffer from the higher number of miscarriages in any infertility diagnosis. On an average, 95% of embryo quality depends upon the quality of eggs, and embryos with poor quality are unlikely to grow and implant in the uterus and likely to lead to miscarriages. It also may lead to the birth of children with health issues.

Diminished Ovarian Reserve occurs as the age of the women increases. With age, ovarian reserve in women starts diminishing. Women trying to achieve pregnancy after the age of 40, often find difficult to get pregnant because of this reason. Also, DOR is not a condition only in women over the age of 40. It can also affect the younger age women too.

Around 10% of women start to face this condition (decline of ovarian function in terms of ageing) much earlier in their life. It means that if their ovarian reserve is assessed, it is found to be lower than what is expected according to their age. These women are said to be suffering from Premature Ovarian Aging (POA), a clinical term often used and successfully treated by the researchers of Delhi IVF. Like women having DOR, women having POA also find hard to conceive naturally and even with the help of fertility treatments, as these women are often not given the appropriate treatment or misdiagnosed for their ovarian reserve status. Fortunately , these women still have the option to get excellent results at Delhi IVF, most of our POA patients have been successfully treated and have conceived at Delhi IVF.

How Infertility is caused by Tubal Blockage?

Each month, during the ovulation, an egg is released from one of the ovaries. The egg travels from the ovaries through fallopian tubes to the uterus. The sperm is also required to swim towards the egg from the cervix through uterus, and through the tubes. The process of fertilization generally takes place while the egg is traveling through a tube.

When there is a tubal blockage in one or both the tubes, the egg gets obstructed reaching the uterus and the sperm gets obstructed reaching the egg, thus, preventing the fertilization process and pregnancy.
