About Center for Fertility and Gynecology

LGBTQ family planning and reciprocal IVF are offered, and staff speak English, Farsi and Japanese.

IVF Success Rates — CDC 2022 data

Reported by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in its 2022 Assisted Reproductive Technology (ART) Fertility Clinic Report. These figures are CDC’s, not ours and not the clinic’s — Center for Fertility and Gynecology did not supply them.

CDC publishes this data under the facility name The Center for Fertility and Gynecology, Vermesh Center for Fertility (CDC clinic ID 458). If that is not the practice you are looking at, the figures below are not about it.

These percentages cannot be used to rank clinics. How often IVF works depends far more on a patient’s age and the reason for their infertility than on the clinic. Clinics also differ in which patients they take on — a clinic that treats more complex or older patients will report lower percentages even when its care is excellent. CDC publishes this data with the same warning. Use it as a starting point for questions to ask a doctor about your own situation, not as a scoreboard.
