IVF cycles with own eggs (all ages)

For patients under 35, Fertility Solutions reported a live-birth rate of 53.5% per intended egg retrieval and Massachusetts General Hospital Fertility Center reported 52.4% (CDC data for 2022). Fertility Solutions reported the higher rate for patients under 35, and Massachusetts General Hospital Fertility Center for patients 35 to 37, 38 to 40 and over 40.

These are averages for each clinic's own patients, who differ in age, diagnosis and treatment history, so a higher rate can reflect who a clinic treats as much as how well it treats them. The CDC's own guidance says "comparisons between clinics should be made with caution", because clinics "have different patient populations or ART treatment methods". See how to read IVF success rates.

A new patient's chance of a baby

For patients new to IVF (no earlier ART cycles) using their own eggs: the share who had a baby after all their egg retrievals, counting embryo transfers within a year of each retrieval. It adds up every transfer, so it runs higher than the per-retrieval rates above.
