What is the process of IVF from start to finish?


At Conceptions Fertility Center, we understand that the journey to parenthood can be both emotional and complex. Our expert team is dedicated to providing individualized, compassionate care for individuals and couples facing infertility or certain medical conditions. One of the most effective fertility treatments we offer is in vitro fertilization (IVF).

● Personalized IVF Journey
Your IVF journey at Conceptions Fertility Center begins with a comprehensive consultation and fertility assessment. Our experienced reproductive endocrinologists carefully review your medical history, perform physical examinations, and order specialized tests to evaluate hormone levels and reproductive health for both partners. This allows us to develop a treatment plan tailored to your unique needs and circumstances.

● Ovarian Stimulation and Monitoring
Once a personalized plan is established, ovarian stimulation begins. Our skilled nurses and physicians guide you through daily hormone injections over 8 to 14 days, designed to encourage your ovaries to produce multiple eggs. Throughout this process, our state-of-the-art laboratory and advanced ultrasound technology allow us to closely monitor your progress, ensuring the best possible outcomes.

● Egg Retrieval and Fertilization
When your eggs are ready, you’ll receive a “trigger shot” to prepare them for retrieval. About 36 hours later, the egg retrieval procedure is performed in our comfortable, private surgical suite—typically under sedation for your comfort. Simultaneously, a semen sample is collected from your partner or a selected donor. In our on-site embryology laboratory, our highly trained embryologists use the latest technology to fertilize the eggs, either by traditional IVF or intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI), depending on your specific situation.

● Embryo Development and Transfer
Over the next several days, your embryos are carefully monitored for development and quality. At Conceptions Fertility Center, we offer advanced options such as preimplantation genetic testing (PGT) to screen for genetic conditions when appropriate. After three to five days, the healthiest embryo(s) are selected for transfer. Our gentle, ultrasound-guided embryo transfer is performed right here in our clinic, and any remaining high-quality embryos can be cryopreserved for future use.

● Support, Counseling, and Follow-Up
Approximately two weeks after embryo transfer, we perform a blood test to determine if pregnancy has occurred. Our team is here to support you every step of the way, whether celebrating positive news or discussing next steps and adjustments for future cycles. We offer counseling and emotional support resources to help you navigate the emotional aspects of fertility treatment.

At Conceptions Fertility Center, we are committed to combining cutting-edge fertility science with compassionate, personalized care to help you realize your dreams of building a family.

How do IVF success rates vary by age?


At Conceptions Fertility Center, we understand that one of the most important questions our patients have is: “What are my chances of success with IVF?” A key factor influencing IVF outcomes is a woman’s age, as both egg quality and quantity naturally decline over time.

For women under age 35, IVF success rates are typically the highest. At Conceptions Fertility Center, women in this age group often experience live birth rates ranging from about 40% to 50% per IVF cycle. As age increases, chances of success gradually decrease. Women aged 35 to 37 generally have a 35% to 40% chance of a live birth per cycle at our center, while those aged 38 to 40 see rates closer to 20% to 25%. For women between 41 and 42, success rates drop to around 10% to 15%. After age 42, the likelihood of achieving a live birth with IVF is considerably lower—often less than 5% per cycle—largely due to diminished ovarian reserve and reduced egg quality.

It’s important to remember that these percentages are averages and that every patient’s situation is unique. Factors such as your overall health, medical history, and even the use of donor eggs can influence your outcome. Our experienced team uses the latest techniques and a personalized approach to help maximize your chances of success. We also see higher success rates when donor eggs from younger women are used, regardless of the recipient’s age.

How many IVF cycles does it take to achieve a successful pregnancy?


For many couples who come to Conceptions Fertility Center, IVF may result in a successful pregnancy within the first or second cycle. However, national research and our own clinical experience show that cumulative success rates improve with additional cycles. For women under 35, live birth rates per cycle are typically between 40 and 50 percent. Women in their late 30s and early 40s may experience lower per-cycle success rates, but after three full IVF cycles, about 65 to 80 percent of women under 40 achieve a live birth.

Each IVF cycle includes several critical steps: ovarian stimulation, egg retrieval, fertilization, and embryo transfer. Not every cycle will result in an embryo transfer, as sometimes there may not be viable embryos available. We also offer both fresh and frozen embryo transfer options, and our state-of-the-art laboratory and highly experienced clinical team ensure the highest standards to optimize your chances of success.

We encourage every patient to have a detailed conversation with our fertility specialists. Your personal chances of success depend on your individual medical history and test results, which we review thoroughly at Conceptions Fertility Center to provide the most accurate and personalized guidance.
