Chances of success
The success rates of a fertility treatment depend on several combined factors. These include, among others:
- The age of the patient
- The duration and causes of infertility
- Genetic factors
- The quality of the sperm or eggs
Understanding these data
Currently, pregnancy rates after frozen embryo transfers are equal to or even better than those after fresh transfers. This is because, in cases of a strong response to stimulation (a favorable prognostic factor) or elevated progesterone levels at the time of ovulation triggering, we choose to freeze all embryos for a transfer during a frozen cycle the following month.
This strategy helps to prevent ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome in the majority of cases.
The pregnancy rate (positive pregnancy test) is not the same as the live birth rate, as some pregnancies are non-viable and end spontaneously. The rate of early miscarriage is also related to the woman’s age.
