What the CDC NASS Data Shows for Family Fertility Center

Family Fertility Center reported cycle outcomes to the CDC National ART Surveillance System for the 2022 reporting year, with 3 years of cumulative reporting history. The clinic performed 145 total ART cycles, split between 6 fresh and 139 frozen embryo transfer cycles. The overall success rate — live births per cycle started — was 56.9%. That is 18.9 percentage points above the Pennsylvania state average of 38.0%.

Age remains the dominant variable in IVF outcomes. At Family Fertility Center, patients under 35 saw a 58.8% success rate, compared with 54.2% for ages 35–37. Single embryo transfer (SET) was used in 55.9% of cycles, a metric ASRM associates with lower multi-pregnancy rates.

Service availability also affects which clinics fit which patients. Family Fertility Center does report donor egg services and does offer gestational carrier (surrogate) cycles. These services matter for patients with diminished ovarian reserve, same-sex couples, or medical conditions that preclude carrying a pregnancy. Every figure above is a public federal disclosure, not editorial commentary — PlainFertility is not affiliated with Family Fertility Center or the CDC, and these statistics are not a substitute for an evaluation by a board-certified reproductive endocrinologist who can assess your individual diagnosis, history, and treatment options.

Read these figures as a starting point, not a verdict. The CDC reports live births per intended egg retrieval, so the percentages already account for cycles that never reached embryo transfer — a more conservative measure than the per-transfer pregnancy rates clinics sometimes advertise. Group results describe what happened for past patients; they cannot predict an individual outcome, which depends on diagnosis, ovarian reserve, sperm quality, embryo genetics, and the protocol a physician recommends. A single reporting year can swing for lower-volume clinics, so cumulative multi-year results and a candid consultation carry more weight than any one published number.

Frequently Asked Questions

Family Fertility Center's IVF success rate

Family Fertility Center reports an overall IVF success rate of 56.9% across 145 reported cycles. Rates by age group vary, patients under 35 generally see higher success rates.

How should I interpret these success rates?

IVF success rates depend on patient age, diagnosis, embryo type, and treatment protocol. A clinic with a lower success rate may treat more complex cases. Always consult a board-certified reproductive endocrinologist who can evaluate your individual situation.

Where does this data come from?

All data is sourced from the CDC's National ART Surveillance System (NASS), which requires all ART clinics in the US to report their cycle outcomes annually under the Fertility Clinic Success Rate and Certification Act of 1992.

What is the difference between fresh and frozen IVF cycles?

Fresh cycles use embryos that have not been frozen, eggs are retrieved, fertilized, and transferred within the same treatment cycle. Frozen cycles use previously cryopreserved embryos. Family Fertility Center reported 6 fresh cycles and 139 frozen cycles. Many clinics now favor frozen embryo transfers (FET) due to improved vitrification technology and comparable or higher success rates.

What does single embryo transfer (SET) percentage mean?

Single embryo transfer percentage indicates how often a clinic transfers just one embryo per cycle rather than multiple embryos. A higher SET rate generally reflects adherence to current ASRM guidelines aimed at reducing multiple pregnancies. Family Fertility Center reports a SET rate of 55.9%. Higher SET rates typically mean fewer twins and triplets, which reduces pregnancy complications.

Does this clinic offer donor egg or gestational carrier services?

Family Fertility Center does offer donor egg services and does offer gestational carrier (surrogate) services per the latest CDC NASS report. Contact the clinic directly to confirm current service availability and discuss whether these options are appropriate for your treatment plan.
