After losing only child, 42-year-old delivers girl through IVF

LUDHIANA: Life came to a standstill for Madhu Sharma, a resident of Chappar village, Punjab, when she lost her only son in December 2016. He was 11-years-old. The couple had almost given up on life when a family friend asked them to meet IVF Specialists Dr
Rama Sofat Hospital
and Ruchi. The doctors made the couple understand about IVF and how they can have a child again.

Madhu (42) became pregnant in the very first attempt of IVF. Recently, Madhu gave birth to a girl child. Dr Ruchika Sofat said Madhu failed to conceive because of her premenopausal age and hence had to undergo the IVF treatment. “I can’t express my happiness. We had almost lost all our hope but now our life is complete,” she said.

Dr Ruchika Sofat also said, “The latest advancements in IVF can bring hope in the life of a childless couple. The newer techniques like blastocyst culture, laser hatching, egg donation and embryo donation have tremendously increased the success rate of these procedures. Women who have reached menopause can still become pregnant and enjoy motherhood using these newer techniques.”
