IVF and Fertility Specialists Clinic
How successful are the IVF clinics you are considering?
How to Access IVF Clinic Success Rate Reports From:
The US Government's Centers for Disease Control (CDC)
The Society for Assisted Reproductive Technology (SART)
Links to both of these reports are below
- The CDC, or Centers for Disease Control, is a US Government agency. Every year the CDC reports clinic-specific in vitro fertilization success rates for all reputable fertility clinics.
- The full report for 2007 IVF cycles, the "CDC Assisted Reproductive Technology ART Success Rate Report" is available on the web.
- The CDC report also has a lot of related information about the population of patients having IVF in the US. This includes data regarding age, specific fertility problems, number of embryos transferred, single and multiple birth risks, and more. The CDC report is much more than just a summary of statistics from individual IVF clinics.
- SART (Society for Assisted Reproductive Technology) also releases annual success rate reports that contain the same outcome data as the CDC reports. The SART report for a given year is released about a year sooner than the corresponding final CDC report. However, the SART Report does not include as many IVF clinics in its report.
- The SART report on IVF cycles done in 2008 was released in February 2010.
Most IVF clinics have websites |
Many clinics do not post their IVF live birth success rates on their websites |
Do they think that couples with infertility don't care about their success rates? |
The best way to increase the success of IVF is by having the procedures done at a high quality program. For example:
- The CDC website has success rates for all reputable IVF clinics for 2007 (or earlier).
- The SART website has success rates for all member clinics for 2008 (or earlier).
Do your research before you do IVF
There are large differences in success rates between IVF centers

The links below allows consumers of infertility services to check IVF live birth success rates for any reputable IVF center in the US.
- The CDC (US government) released the 2007 IVF results in July 2009
- Go to the CDC to check any IVF clinic's success rates for 2007 (or earlier)
Below is what you will see on the CDC site
On the CDC site - select a state, a clinic, and a year to view that clinic's IVF success report
| Below is part of the CDC's national summary table for 2007 Every IVF clinic has a similar page in the CDC report with their IVF and donor egg success rates We have highlighted the table with color here to help show how to read the CDC tables: Green shows heading for "fresh" IVF cycles (cycles not using frozen embryos) Red shows the top of the age under 35 column Yellow = live birth rate "per cycle" (starting ovarian stimulating drugs for IVF is a "cycle") Pink = live birth rate "per retrieval" (cycles having an egg retrieval procedure performed) There are more cycles than retrievals since some "cycles" are cancelled for poor response to the drugs |

SART (Society for Assisted Reproductive Technology) released 2008 IVF data in 2010
On the SART site, either click a state on the map to get a list of clinics in that state, or enter a zip code and a distance.
Note: Every IVF center does not report to SART - some only report directly to CDC.
We are proud that our success rates have consistently been one of the highest in the Midwest.
- But don't take our word for it. Use the CDC and/or the SART Reports to check and compare IVF live birth rates.
We are not bragging if we back it up!
- We put our money where our mouth is by offering 2 money back guarantee IVF pricing plans for qualifying couples:
The 100% Refund IVF Plan and The Shared Risk IVF Plan
A comparison of clinic success rates may not be meaningful because patient medical characteristics, treatment approaches and entrance criteria for ART may vary from clinic to clinic.
