In recent years, In Vitro Fertilization (IVF) has offered hope to millions of couples struggling with infertility. But despite its increasing popularity, there are still many misconceptions surrounding IVF that create confusion and fear.
At Ferty Nest, our mission is to educate and empower families with accurate information. So, let’s debunk the most common IVF myths — once and for all!
???? Myth 1: IVF is Always Successful on the First Try
Truth: While IVF is a highly effective fertility treatment, success isn’t always immediate. Success rates depend on factors such as:
-
Age of the woman
-
Underlying health conditions
-
Embryo quality
-
Lifestyle factors
On average, IVF success rates range between 30%–50% per cycle, and many couples may need multiple attempts.
???? Myth 2: IVF Only Works for the Wealthy
Truth: IVF is more affordable and accessible today than ever before.
At Ferty Nest, we offer customized treatment plans and cost-effective packages that cater to different budgets — ensuring that financial concerns don't stand in the way of parenthood.
???? Myth 3: Only Women with Fertility Issues Need IVF
Truth: IVF isn’t just for women. Around 40% of infertility cases are linked to male factors like low sperm count or motility. IVF with ICSI (Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection) is often used in such cases.
IVF can help couples facing male infertility, unexplained infertility, genetic disorders, or advanced age.
???? Myth 4: IVF Babies Are Not Normal
Truth: IVF babies are just as healthy and normal as naturally conceived babies.
Multiple studies confirm that children born through IVF develop in the same way as any other child.
IVF simply helps with conception — the rest of the pregnancy follows nature’s course.
???? Myth 5: IVF is Extremely Painful
Truth: IVF may involve minor discomfort, but the process is far from painful.
Procedures like egg retrieval are done under sedation, and most other steps involve simple injections or scans.
Our expert fertility team ensures maximum comfort throughout your journey.
???? Myth 6: You’ll Definitely Have Twins or Triplets with IVF
Truth: While IVF can result in multiple pregnancies, it's not always the case.
With advancements in technology, fertility specialists now transfer fewer and higher-quality embryos to reduce the chance of twins or triplets unless requested.
???? Myth 7: IVF is Only for Older Women
Truth: IVF is suitable for both younger and older women, depending on their fertility condition.
In fact, younger women often have higher success rates due to better egg quality.
IVF is also recommended for younger women with blocked tubes, PCOS, endometriosis, or unexplained infertility.
???? Myth 8: IVF is the Last Resort
Truth: IVF is not just a last hope — it’s often a first-line treatment in specific cases like:
-
Blocked fallopian tubes
-
Severe male infertility
-
Genetic disorders
Consulting a fertility expert early can save time and emotional stress.
