Fertility North Success Rates

1 January 2018 – 31 December 2018

These results represent the most recent results available following the birth of a baby.

These results include:

Cleavage stage and blastocyst embryo transfers of patients using their own eggs
IVF and ICSI treatment
Embryos transferred in a fresh, stimulated treatment cycle and frozen transfer cycles

These results do not include the following:

Minimal Stimulation (MoNa / Mini-IVF) or Natural Cycles
Donor egg/embryo treatment cycles

A Clinical pregnancy is defined by the presence of one or more of the following: pregnancy ongoing at 20 weeks, ultrasound evidence of an intrauterine sac (with or without a fetal heart), examination of products of conception reveal chorionic villi, or an ectopic pregnancy diagnosed by laparoscope or by ultrasound.

* Not every treatment cycle will result in an egg collection, an embryo transfer, or embryos to freeze.
* Success rates may vary and are affected by a number of factors including age, weight, lifestyle factors, genetic factors and other various causes of infertility.

Embryos

Fertility North transfers embryos predominantly at the early cleavage stages to maximise embryo utilisation. Under the strict guidelines of state government legislation, no more than two embryos are transferred at once, to minimise the risk of multiple pregnancy.
