Success rates vary from center to center for a couple reasons.

  • First each center employes different patient selection criteria, different stimulation protocols and different laboratory procedures.
  • Secondly, each patients medical characteristics and treatment plan may vary from clinic to clinic.

For these reasons you need to look beyond the reported IVF success rates. Your individual prognosis may be better or worse depending on your diagnosis and treatment history.


You should ask your physician for an approximation of your success rate based on all these factors. This can help you make better decisions regarding your family building options.
