As a couple undergoing or intend to undergo an IVF treatment, we understand that it is important to know a centre’s pregnancy success rates. But it is also important to know what success rates really mean. We pride ourselves in reporting the most current success rates so that you can make a sound decision before commencing the treatment. Additionally, our results have been compared against the ANZARD (Australian & New Zealand Reproduction Database) results and audited during our routine RTAC (Reproductive Technology Accreditation Committee) certification by an international independent external auditor.
The above charts show the success rates for Frozen Embryo Transfer (FET) that took place at KL Fertility Centre between 1st January 2018 and 31st December 2018. The FET data above :-
Includes all embryos frozen from different years created via IVF or ICSI.
Excludes cycles completed by patients using donated eggs and donated embryos.
Excludes frozen treatment cycles that has incorporated Pre-Implantation Genetic Testing (PGT).
The above chart shows the success rates for Pre-implantation Genetic Testing (PGT) that took place at KL Fertility Centre between 1st January 2018 and 31st December 2018. The PGT data above :-
Includes all embryos frozen from different years created via IVF or ICSI.
Excludes cycles completed by patients using donated eggs and donated embryos.
Our data is not adjusted for:
Age of the female and male
BMI (weight) of the female and male
Causes of infertility
Duration of infertility and previous IVF cycle numbers
Therefore, individual results will vary with individual circumstances and not every IVF treatment cycle commenced will result in an egg collection, an embryo transfer or embryos to freeze.
Many of our patients who had eggs collected in 2019 still have not had their embryo transfer procedures done, and therefore, the above is our most recent FULL YEAR results.
For detailed explanation, do see the sections below.

FRESH EMBRYO TRANSFER
Embryos created from eggs retrieved after controlled ovarian hyperstimulation, can be replaced into a woman’s womb in the same treatment cycle and usually is performed 3 to 5 days after egg retrieval. At KL Fertility Centre, we are now moving towards the “freeze-all” approach which is a novel approach in improving IVF outcomes where all embryos from an egg collection cycle are electively frozen and transferred in a subsequent cycle.
KL Fertility Centre practices the “freeze-all” approach on 94% of its total IVF cycles, success rates for fresh embryo transfer are not available due to the low number of fresh embryo transfer cycles and are not enough to generate a conclusive and meaningful result.
FROZEN EMBRYO TRANSFER
The benefits of FROZEN embryo transfer are multi-fold and these include: –
Permits the uterus environment to return to normal (non-stimulated) after IVF medication, providing natural embryo implantation conditions.
Allows for genetic screening, greatly increasing the chances of successful pregnancy and healthy birth.
Prevents Ovarian Hyperstimulation Syndrome (OHSS) which can be fatal if it is not properly managed clinically.
Preserves all viable embryos through embryo freezing, making it easier to select single embryo transfer and thus greatly reduce the possibility of multiple gestations (pregnancy of twins or more) and the associated health risks.
Is less expensive for multiple transfers.
Clinical pregnancy rate is per the Australian and New Zealand Assisted Reproductive Database (ANZARD) definition. A clinical pregnancy must fulfil one of the following criteria:
Known to be ongoing at 20 weeks
Evidence by ultrasound of an intrauterine sac and/or fetal heart
Examination of products of conception reveal chorionic villi
A definite ectopic pregnancy that has been diagnosed laparoscopically or by ultrasound
Ongoing pregnancy rate is defined as the presence of a fetal heart at 12 week scan.
LIVE BIRTH RATE
The definition of a live birth is a birth at which a child is born alive.
Although clinical pregnancy is important, we know live birth rate is the most meaningful outcome for our patients, but we are unable to provide the live birth rates at this time. In order to be able to present live birth rates, all live births data must be made available to us. Here at KL Fertility Centre, all of our patients who had successfully reached their 12 weeks of pregnancy will be looked after by external obstetricians for antenatal care until delivery.
We also practice stringent live birth data collection. However, all live birth information is private and confidential. Therefore, we fully respect our patient’s choice whether or not to inform us about the birth of their child(ren).
The above chart shows the frozen embryo transfer (FET) success rates which include both IVF and ICSI treatment cycles that took place at KL Fertility Centre between 1st January and 31st December 2018. The transferred embryos consist of frozen embryos that were frozen from different years.
Mondays to Fridays: 9am to 4pm Saturdays: 9am to 1pm Sundays and public holidays: CLOSED
