Multiple IVF Failures

Repeated IVF failure refers to the inability to achieve a clinical pregnancy after transferring at least four good-quality embryos across a minimum of three cycles. While many ART clinics report implantation rates between 40–60%, outcomes vary widely due to individual factors and definitions.

Causes of Multiple IVF Failures

Several medical and lifestyle-related factors may contribute to repeated IVF failures. Identifying these is the first step toward improving success rates.

  • High sperm DNA fragmentation (DFI)
  • Intrauterine adhesions or scar tissue
  • Congenital uterine abnormalities
  • Presence of hydrosalpinx
  • Fibroids or adenomyosis
  • Thin endometrium or polyps
  • Autoantibodies and immunological issues
  • High BMI and hormonal imbalances
  • Defective endometrial receptivity

Precautions During IVF Treatment

Following medical advice and lifestyle precautions can improve IVF outcomes:

  • Take injections and medications exactly as prescribed
  • Avoid sexual intercourse after 6–7 days of injections
  • Refrain from smoking, alcohol, and addictive substances
  • Avoid lifting heavy weights or high abdominal strain
  • Maintain a healthy and balanced diet
  • Practice stress management, yoga, or meditation

Understanding and Overcoming Repeated IVF Failures

Before deciding the next treatment plan, identifying the underlying cause of IVF failure is crucial. Uterine evaluation through hysteroscopy helps detect abnormalities, while Endometrial Receptivity Array (ERA) testing can determine the optimal time for embryo transfer. In cases of high sperm DNA fragmentation, advanced techniques such as MACS during ICSI can help select healthier sperm for better outcomes.

Alongside medical interventions, couples are encouraged to adopt a healthier lifestyle, manage stress, and choose an experienced fertility consultant. With proper guidance and tailored treatment, the chances of achieving a successful pregnancy can significantly improve.
