Age & Fertility
DID YOU KNOW…?
As we get older, the eggs we have left don’t just decrease in number—their quality drops too, with fewer being chromosomally normal. After 35, the chances of egg abnormalities rise sharply, which is why natural conception (or even IVF) gets tougher in your late 30s and 40s.
Sperm quality dips with age as well. Younger sperm tend to be more vigorous and healthy, speeding up conception and boosting overall success rates when paired with a partner’s eggs.
Why This Matters for Your Journey
Timing plays a huge role in fertility because these age-related shifts directly affect pregnancy odds, miscarriage risk, and how quickly you might see results. Knowing where you stand empowers smarter choices—like exploring options such as egg freezing, donor sperm, or our Fast Track IVF Program’s custom protocols that account for these factors. It also highlights why personalised, doctor-led care at No1 Fertility can make a real difference, adapting to your biology rather than forcing a standard path.
