Do donor egg IVF miscarry?
Since egg quality and age are leading drivers to the rate of miscarriage, patients using donor egg treatment often see a lower rate of miscarriage than their same age counterparts who are using their own eggs. In 2015, the average miscarriage rate for women using in vitro fertilization (IVF) over 40 was 31 percent.

Is miscarriage more common with IVF?
It’s true that there is some research showing that pregnancies conceived via in vitro fertilization (IVF) carry a slightly increased risk of miscarriage, compared with spontaneous (natural) pregnancies. 1 The exact level of the increased risk varies by study.
When do most IVF miscarriages occur?
One of the most common reasons why IVF is unsuccessful, or why miscarriages occur, is because of chromosomal variations in the embryo. Up to 70% of embryos, whether created naturally or through IVF, are lost before birth. This usually occurs within the first three months of pregnancy, most often before implantation.
Why does IVF fail with donor eggs?
Donor egg cycles, therefore, can be presumed to fail for, principally, the same reasons why all IVF cycles fail: either the quality of eggs/embryos is sub-par, and/or the implantation process does not function properly. Since these embryos come from “young” eggs, their pregnancy chances are very good, indeed only ca.
