Our
Success Rates
Bourn Hall was the first IVF clinic in the world – our founders invented the technique to help people create their families – and our history, approach and innovation continue to deliver that vision through outstanding success rates.
What are our success rates?
While every fertility clinic claims it has good success rates, we prove ours by presenting the statistics that really matter to you.
We encourage you to compare our figures with the statistics of other clinics. If you have your treatment at Bourn Hall, you can be assured of the best chances of having a baby and within the shortest possible time as well.
Having a baby after one IVF cycle at Bourn Hall
This graph shows how likely you would have been to have a baby after a single IVF cycle at Bourn Hall in 2021. It includes using fresh and, if available, frozen embryos from a single egg collection procedure. We believe this is a practical and realistic statistic, as it is only natural you would come back and use any frozen embryos, if your fresh cycle has not been successful. This is also one of the success statistics used by the Human Fertilisation and Embryology Authority (HFEA).

Our success rate data
We decided to present these important statistics across the group of Bourn Hall clinics, because we have established they all perform in a similar way. Our uniform success rates across the Bourn Hall group are evidence of the consistent and high standard of care we give to all our patients.
We know that understanding success rate statistics can be difficult so, to help you, we have provided a breakdown of all our data by clinic, including: live birth after one egg collection; clinical pregnancy rates; live birth rates per embryo transfer; and live birth rates per embryo transferred.
Independent guidance and advice
The Human Fertilisation and Embryology Authority (HFEA) has guidelines for how results should be reported. It also reports on how a clinic’s results compare with the national averages. We have included our most recent results here on our website but there is also useful independently verified information on the HFEA website regarding how to interpret success rates and the factors to consider in choosing a clinic for your IVF treatment.
