Success Rates

Reproductive potential is very complex. There are many factors, such as age, physical conditions, lifestyle choices and environmental exposure that come into play.

One of the most important of these is maternal age, which can have an effect on the quality and quantity of eggs obtained at the retrieval. As a woman's age increases, her ability to become pregnant and carry a pregnancy to term decreases. Even if a woman becomes pregnant at the outer limits of her reproductive years, chances of miscarriage and chromosomal abnormalities increase. Although it varies from woman to woman, fertility typically begins to decline during your mid- to late-thirties. The greatest decline in fertility rates occurs after the age of 40.

The CONCEPTIA Clinic has been very successful, matching and even surpassing national average rates.
