The Quint: 72-Year-Old Woman Delivers Baby Boy Through IVF

A 72-year-old woman has delivered a baby after 46 years of her marriage at a Hisar-based fertility centre.
The couple - Mohinder Singh Gill (79) and his wife Daljinder Kaur – were childless and decided to have a baby through in-vitro fertilisation (IVF) three years ago.
In IVF technique, eggs are collected from the woman’s ovaries and then fertilised by husband’s processed sperms in a test tube in a controlled laboratory environment. The resulting embryos are then deposited into the woman’s uterus.
Bishnoi said this is the second case in which a woman over 70 years of age has become a mother at the centre.
Earlier, Rajo Devi, a resident of Jind district in Haryana, had become mother through IVF at the age of 70 years in 2008.
Gill and his wife are feeling great at becoming parents at their age. They have named the baby boy Armaan.

In 1956, an American woman named Ruth Kistler gave birth to a baby girl at 57 years of age, yet even today this is a forgotten woman that never became even remotely famous except a note in the Guiness Book of World Records years ago with a simple photograph of the two of them.
