ECO Statistics

Deciding on the IVF procedure as a way to treat infertility, many couples are interested in what the statistics of successful IVF are. The high cost of the procedure, the long preparation, the waiting, the moral aspect of the procedure, and finally the age of the parents - all this makes the couple nervous and worried, reading the story with a happy ending and hoping that they will all go well. And what does the medical statistics say?

Statistics of IVF protocols

According to the world indicators, a positive result of IVF occurs in 35-40% of cases. The maximum figure, of course, for leading clinics with extensive experience and all the necessary equipment for a complex and time-consuming procedure. In our clinics, the results of IVF are less optimistic. As a rule, deliveries after the procedure are successful in 30-35% of cases.

The result after IVF largely depends on the quality of the material, the choice of protocol procedures, the knowledge and experience of medical personnel, the health of the couple. As a result of the usual IVF protocol, pregnancy occurs in 36% of cases, if unfrozen embryos are used as a material, the statistics of IVF results are somewhat reduced - pregnancy occurs in 26% of cases. The probability is higher when using donor cells - 45% of cases. About 75% of pregnancies after IVF end with childbirth.

The statistics of ECO IVF are somewhat different. As a result of the forced introduction of the sperm into the egg, up to 60-70% of the eggs are fertilized, and the probability of developing embryos from them is up to 90-95%. However, ICSI is carried out only on medical indicators for those couples, who have severe sexual health disorders. First of all, it concerns bad indicators of spermogram in a man, lack of the necessary amount of active spermatozoa. However, compared to the usual protocol, the statistics of successful IVF protocols with ICSI are the same - about 35%.

Some couples take up to 10-12 IVF attempts, and still do not get the result. Unfortunately, IVF is not a panacea and with complex health problems it can not always help to get an effective result. However, at the same time, many couples who have decided to take this step successfully give birth to healthy children. Your personal statistics of IVF attempts can be minimal, that is, success will come from the first time, and maybe a little more lengthy. It is necessary to be ready for this.
