[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] I guess you haven't really followed the discussion. Nobody knows how many women are "trying to conceive" - all we have are births for women in a 40-44 age-group. The 5% figure is probably (though nobody here knows for sure) based on women who have trouble conceiving and decided to use IVF - not a random sample at all. And please stop patronizing us with the spiel about aging eggs. Everybody on these forums knows those facts 50 times over.[/quote] It's not patronizing it's reality. Sometimes reality hurts, I get that, but make no mistake it's called "age related fertility decline" for a reason. Unless you are in peoples bedrooms surveying on if they are using birth control or not, no one will know if women are "trying to conceive."[/quote] It can be reality and still be patronizing. And, for as long as "no one will know if women are trying to conceive" nobody will know what conception/pregnancy/delivery rate is, either.[/quote]
