Success Rates
We’re passionate about helping patients achieve their dream of having a family. It’s a responsibility we take very seriously. We believe in empowering you with relevant information so you can make the best decisions for your individual circumstances.
That’s why we believe in complete transparency when it comes to publishing our IVF pregnancy success rates.
Understanding IVF success rates
We understand that interpreting success rates and comparing fertility clinics can be challenging as different providers often present their success rates in very different ways. It’s important to us that you’re able to make an informed decision when choosing a fertility provider. You can access independent guidance and information on how to interpret success rates by clicking here.
Continuously improving
We are continually striving to improve our success rates and outcomes for our patients. Read about the initiatives we are working on to improve our success rates here.
Your Journey
Many factors can contribute to your likelihood of achieving a pregnancy or live birth. Maternal age is the single most important consideration, but the cause of infertility and lifestyle factors such as weight and smoking also play a part.
We recommend that everyone should have a consultation with a fertility specialist to understand their individual chances of success. A fertility specialist will review your personal medical history, conduct fertility health assessments, and discuss your individual chances of success with you.
It’s important to realise that not every treatment cycle will result in an egg collection, an embryo transfer or having embryos to freeze. We do everything we possibly can to give you the very best chance of successfully conceiving, but unfortunately there are no guarantees when it comes to fertility treatment.
Simply put? Your chance of success is very specific to your clinical situation. A fertility specialist can provide you with personalised guidance and fertility advice. You can book a consultation with a fertility specialist here

Monash IVF Clinical Pregnancy and Live Birth Success Rates 2021
The clinical pregnancy rates we include below are per the Australian and New Zealand Assisted Reproductive Database (ANZARD) definition. According to ANZARD, a clinical pregnancy must fulfil one of the following criteria:
- known to be ongoing at 20 weeks;
- evidence by ultrasound detection of an intrauterine sac (with or without a fetal heart);
- examination of products of conception reveal chorionic villi; or
- an ectopic pregnancy has been diagnosed by laparoscope or by ultrasound.
Live Birth Definition:
According to the World Health Organisation (WHO) definition, a live birth is defined as the complete expulsion or extraction from its mother of a product of conception irrespective of the duration of the pregnancy, which, after such separation, breathes or shows any other evidence of life, such as beating of the heart, pulsation of the umbilical cord or definite movement of the voluntary muscles, whether or not the umbilical cord has been cut or the placenta is attached; each product of such a birth is considered liveborn.
Our data is not adjusted for:
- Patients with varying lengths of infertility and previous cycle numbers
- Female and male BMI (weight)
- Ovarian reserve parameters
- Male age
- Embryo grade, day of transfer or survival rates
- Lifestyle factors (e.g. smoking)
- Medication regime used
