Madhya Pradesh High Court Allows 52-Year-Old Woman to Undergo IVF Despite Age Limit
The Madhya Pradesh High Court permitted a 52-year-old woman to undergo in vitro fertilisation (IVF), ruling that a medically fit woman should not be denied motherhood solely due to age limits set by the Assisted Reproductive Technology (Regulation) Act, 2021. The couple, who lost their only son, sought IVF after natural conception failed. The court clarified that while hospitals retain final medical discretion, age alone cannot bar the procedure under the law.
