Ivf cut off in most places privately is 50 I think so she has just made it... It depends whether she has used an egg donor too. But as the embryos are grown "in vitro" only absolutely healthy and viable ones are transferred back...it's the toll on her health afterwards that may be telling but medically she can carry the baby quite healthily at 50...

Oh so there isn't the same risk through IVF then of having a baby with disabilities?
