Abstract
Objective: To present a case of a patient who was treated for a sterility at the age of 46. The treatment was successful, after that we confirmed a clinical pregnancy.
We present the treatment procedure in this case and summarize other treatment options in patiens over 40 years of age. Design: Case report.
Setting: The Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, 1st Faculty of Medicine, Charles University and the General Faculty Hospital Prague 2. Case report: Infertility treatment in patiens over 40 years is often without the desired result, it is often difficult for both the patient and the attending physician.
We describe the case in which a patient became pregnant using her own oocytes obtained from a puncture from the native IVF cycle. Conclusion: Treatment management in patients over forty years of age offers several options, above all it is necessary to choose a couple whether they want to undergo treatment with their own or donated oocytes.
Pregnancy in patiens over 40 years of age using treatment with thein own oocytes is significantly less successful. There is also a decrease in the chances of a continuing physiologically progressing pregnancy and the birth of a healthy offspring, compared to younger patients.
We recommend spreading this information to women's awareness.
