Older women undergoing in vitro fertilization tend to produce eggs that form embryos that are less likely to implant and more likely to result in miscarriage. This is why IVF with donor eggs is much more common among older women than among younger women. Eggs produced by women in older age groups form embryos that are less likely to implant and more likely to result in miscarriage if they do implant.
