The IVF Journey with Dr Michael Chapman

190. Pregnancy at the age of 50


Listen Later

In today’s episode, Professor Michael Chapman talks about his recent Member of the Order of Australia award for recognition of his significant contributions to his field of work.

 

He then goes on to explain that, usually, women over 40 need to go down the egg donor route, if they want to conceive via IVF.

 

Most IVF clinics in Australia don’t treat patients over 50 so if you’re seeking assistance beyond that age, you’ll probably have to seek help overseas.

 

Prof also discusses a few other topics including:

 

  • Abnormalities in the fetus where the patient is over the age of 40.
  • The fact that, In Australia, we aren’t allowed to pay egg donors 
  • How same sex couples can undergo the IVF process
  •  

    … and lots more
