Age is probably the strongest determinant of treatment success in women seeking fertility advice. Although pregnancy rates after spontaneous conception or assisted reproductive technologies (ART) are relatively good up to the age of 36-37, live birth rates significantly drop with advancing age. Fertility decline, which is associated with the higher oocyte and embryo aneuploidy rate in women of advanced age, is more profound above the age of 40, given that in these patients miscarriage rates exceed 30% [1]
