Success Rates

The success related to Assisted Reproductive Technologies (ART) is very often reported as pregnancy rate. Pregnancy rate may be defined broadly to include all positive pregnancy tests, or more narrowly to include only those seen at ultrasound in the first trimester (clinical pregnancy).


The Fertility Clinic reports only clinical pregnancy rates.


We offer treatment to all patients, including those with lower probability of success as long as it is medically justifiable and ethically correct.


Of course, patients with straightforward and less complicated problems have a higher chance of success.


Our rates reflect our caring and honest approach so that our fertility patients can make the best informed choice.
