What Are the Most Common Causes of a Failed IVF?
A failed in vitro fertilization, or failed IVF, can be the result of poor embryo implantation, poor ovarian response, uterine infection or other problems with the uterus. It also may be caused by trauma that occurs to the embryo during the procedure. The patient’s immune system also might mistake the embryo for something bad in the body, causing a failed IVF much the same way the body might reject an organ transplant.
