Queensland Fertility Group is pleased to share our IVF Pregnancy Rates for 2007

In understanding your chance of success with Queensland Fertility Group it is important to remember that IVF success rates depend upon many factors like the age of the patient, the causes of infertility, the approach to treatment and number of IVF cycles the patient has undergone.

QFG attribute our success to the experience of our doctors, highly skilled embryologists, individual treatment programs for patients and leadership in industry research and development.

QFG measure our success rates on two levels. The first is our success rate from an initial IVF cycle where one or two fresh embryos are transferred. The second is the cumulative success rate where the patient becomes pregnant with the subsequent use of all the frozen embryos created in their initial treatment cycle.

Cumulative Pregnancy Rates^#

After a global IVF cycle many couples choose to freeze healthy excess embryos for future use. This allows future pregnancy opportunities.

The cumulative pregnancy rate shows the chance of becoming pregnant after an IVF cycle with the subsequent use of all frozen embryos created in that initial treatment cycle. Clearly the patients overall chance of becoming pregnant significantly increases as the table below demonstrates.

In summary, our high pregnancy rates mean that patients require fewer treatment cycles to become pregnant. This is emotionally and physically less demanding and can deliver significant financial savings for patients.
