Every couple who has struggled to conceive and then turned to assisted reproductive methods or adoption to build a family has probably heard this comment. “You’ll see, you'll end up getting pregnant on your own right after!” well-meaning friends and family often say. <\/p>\n Of course, this is generally not the kind of reaction people dealing with the heartbreak of infertility are looking for. Yet anecdotally, having a baby naturally after adoption or in-vitro fertilization does seem to happen. And doctors we spoke to concur that their patients have experienced this.<\/p>\n RELATED: 7 Things You Need to Know About Working Out During Pregnancy<\/strong><\/p>\n “I have seen this a number of times in my practice,” Dr. Sherry A. Ross<\/a>, MD, an ob-gyn in Santa Barbara, California and author of She-ology: The Definitive Guide to Women’s Intimate Health. Period,<\/em> tells Health.<\/em><\/p>\n While research on the topic is hard to come by, one 2016 UK study<\/a> found that women who undergo an in-vitro fertilization procedure known as ICSI and IVF have a 29% chance of conceiving naturally within six years of completing treatment.<\/p>\n In a second study<\/a> from 2012 published in the journal Fertility & Sterility, <\/em>researchersfocused on 2,100 couples who sought fertility treatments a decade earlier. Among the couples who did not conceive after treatment, 24% eventually had a baby naturally. Of those who did have a baby via treatment, 17% later had another child without assistance.<\/p>\n And though no recent data on women who conceive after adopting exists, the phenomenon doesn’t seem to be a total myth. So how and why are couples who thought they couldn't have kids getting pregnant?<\/p>\n RELATED: 15 Factors That Affect a Woman's Fertility<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n “The truth is, many of the ‘infertile’ couples are really not infertile," says Dr. Ross. "Many couples seeking fertility treatment don’t necessarily need IVF to conceive." As assisted reproductive technologies becomes more mainstream, and women have children later in life (which can cause some anxiety around being able to get pregnant), couples are less hesitant to turn to IVF or adoption sooner in their quest to be parents, says Dr. Ross.<\/p>\n “More and more couples resort to IVF prematurely due to the fear of being infertile,” she says. “By definition, infertility means not being able to get pregnant after one year of trying to conceive, and 1 in 8 couples will have difficulty getting pregnant. However, anxious couples will seek out fertility treatment sooner than necessary in order to become pregnant; many don’t want to wait one full year of trying to conceive to look into fertility treatment options.”<\/p>\n
