About this listen

I am with Dr. Christina Hickman from Avenue's Fertility Clinic to discuss the advancements in fertility treatments, particularly for individuals over 40.


She emphasizes the importance of understanding age-related fertility challenges, the role of technology such as PGTA and AI in improving outcomes, and the significance of mental well-being during the IVF journey.


We discuss:

  • Why IVF is not a guaranteed solution for age-related fertility issues.
  • How technological advancements have significantly improved IVF success rates.
  • How PGTA helps identify embryos with the right chromosomes, increasing chances of pregnancy.
  • How egg freezing can be a strategic option for women over 40.
  • Why mitochondrial health is crucial for egg quality and fertility.
  • How men's fertility issues are often overlooked but equally important.
  • Why individualized IVF protocols are essential for older patients.
  • Why mental well-being and joy during treatment can positively impact fertility outcomes.
