However, from a medical point of view, you age is a very significant factor and must be considered. With IUI, you would have a 5-7% chance of pregnancy per month of trying. On the other hand, with IVF, you will have a 60-70% chance of pregnancy per month of trying. But, IVF will be significantly more expensive. But based on the chances of pregnancy per try, in the U.S. we generally recommend IVF in any patient that is 37 years old or older. That is not the only option, however.<br /><br />Another option, which many of my patients will do is try 1-3 attempts with IUI and if those fail then move quickly to IVF.<br /><br />Good Luck.women:s health and fertilityhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08894216102467479481noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1851682447163727760.post-30901962293795141142011-06-03T19:11:44.747-07:002011-06-03T19:11:44.747-07:00I am 38 years old and post gastric bypass 6 years....I am 38 years old and post gastric bypass 6 years.
