Grace Fertility — FAQ

smart_toyAI-generated
Grace Fertility reports a clinical pregnancy rate of 55% per elective single embryo transfer (eSET) for patients aged 35 and under, surpassing the national average of 49% for the same age group. The clinic also achieves a cumulative clinical pregnancy rate of 85% per IVF cycle when combining fresh eSET and subsequent frozen embryo transfers. For frozen embryo transfer (FET) cycles using vitrified embryos, the clinical pregnancy rate is 55% across all ages up to 43, compared with a national average of 32%, and the embryo survival rate after warming is 96%. These outcomes reflect the clinic's use of advanced laboratory protocols, including vitrification since 2013 and non‑invasive embryo screening, which together enhance the success of in vitro fertilization and assisted reproduction treatments.
