The success rate of in vitro fertilisation combined with an ICSI depend heavily on the woman’s age and health. Success rate is defined as the pregnancy rate per embryo transfer. It should be noted that during the IVF treatment, it is often the case that enough embryos are retrieved for two embryo transfers (a transfer of a fresh embryo and a transfer of a frozen embryo, using previously cryopreserved embryos). We would also like to point out that the pregnancy rate is different from the birth rate. The pregnancy rate for fresh embryo transfer is approximately 30% while the pregnancy rate for frozen embryo transfer is approximately 25%. The success rate depends on the woman’s age. With increasing maternal age, the chances of pregnancy decrease progressively despite fertility treatments. Pregnancy rates for women who are under 35 and in good health are significantly higher at approximately 50%.
Fertility treatments at FertiCare clinic are often more successful than the natural pregnancy rates across all age groups.
Artificial insemination is associated with the same risks as natural pregnancy:
Hormone treatment during IVF stimulates follicular development. One or two embryos are transferred per transfer. This procedure increases the chances of pregnancy but it may be connected with the following side effects:
