[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]IVF is a crapshoot and the odds decrease with age. Most prospective parents going through IVF are happy to get even one viable embryo, never mind 10. Presumably the couples doing this are young and have no fertility issues, but it doesn’t seem nearly as fun as making babies the old fashioned way. Usually the most robust, actively dividing embryo is chosen for transferral, since it’s the most likely to implant and result in a successful pregnancy. That embryo may not necessarily be the smartest. [/quote] Rich people are going to pay for multiple rounds of egg freezing or iVF when their kids are in their 20s to boost the odds that this is successful. [/quote]
