A member asked:

Will ivf damage your ovaries?

A doctor has provided 1 answer
Dr. Tarun Jain answered

No: IVF does not harm or damage your ovaries at all. Every month, a woman loses 7-15 eggs naturally. All IVF does is stimulate those follicles/eggs so that they can be retrieved.

Dr Seibert agreed
