World IVF Day 2025: Women's fertility starts declining after 30, but most people realize this only when they try to conceive. We will also talk about men's fertility.

World IVF Day 2025 :
Often women believe that they can easily conceive by the age of 35 or 40. But the truth is that women 's fertility starts declining slowly after the age of 30 and falls rapidly after 35. Because there is no clear sign of this in the body , women come to know only when they try to conceive. Therefore , it is important that women get tested on time and be aware of fertility in advance.
Egg freezing is not a solution, just an option.
Nowadays many women are opting for egg freezing i.e. the process of keeping the eggs safe. But there is no guarantee that they will have a child in the future. It is more beneficial to get this process done before the age of 35. But this is not discussed openly in the society and correct information is also not available.
The cost of infertility is not just limited to money
Infertility treatments like IVF are expensive, but the real cost is the mental and emotional stress. Repeated failures, social pressure and a feeling of loneliness take a heavy toll. According to a study, women undergoing fertility treatment are as stressed as those suffering from cancer or heart disease. Yet mental health is often overlooked .
Men's fertility is not talked about
When the problem of infertility arises, women are the first ones to be investigated. Whereas in 40% of the cases, men have weak fertility . Bad lifestyle, smoking, stress and environmental pollution are the major reasons for this. Yet talking about men's issues is still rare in society.
Mental and social support affects IVF
IVF is definitely a medical procedure, but its mental impact is also very deep. Research shows that women who get the support of family or partner have a higher chance of success and less mental stress. Loneliness can make this process even more difficult .
Infertility is common, not something to be ashamed of and most importantly, no woman should have to travel this journey alone. What is needed now is open communication, correct information and a healthcare system that provides emotional support along with treatment.
