Several complications not necessarily related to egg quality can lead to IVF failure or the impossibility to carry the pregnancy to term in spite of having used donor eggs, including:
- Genetic abnormalities, which might lead to embryonic arrest at any point of embryo development
- Uterine alterations that might prevent the embryo from continuing its development and cause the woman to miscarry
- Implantation failure due to poor endometrial receptivity
