Making your decision
Per-transfer, per-started-cycle and cumulative live birth after one retrieval are different measures. Age mix, cancelled cycles and egg source affect comparison. A result in a study authored by a doctor is not that doctor’s personal clinical success rate.
What does a success rate measure?
A positive test, clinical pregnancy and live birth are different outcomes. Rates per transfer differ from cumulative outcomes per egg collection. Ask which age group and patients a figure describes. AMH helps anticipate ovarian response, but does not independently determine egg quality or whether pregnancy will occur.
Ask at your consultation
What period, age group and denominator does this rate use, and what remains uncertain for me?
