What the CDC NASS Data Shows for West Coast Fertility Center
West Coast 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 298 total ART cycles, split between 162 fresh and 136 frozen embryo transfer cycles. The overall success rate, live births per cycle started, was 23.8%. That is 5.2 percentage points below the California state average of 29.0%, which may reflect a more complex patient case mix rather than quality of care.
Age remains the dominant variable in IVF outcomes. Younger patient cohorts typically see the highest success rates and 23.8% for ages 38–40. Single embryo transfer rates reflect a clinic's alignment with ASRM guidance on reducing multi-pregnancy risk.
Service availability also affects which clinics fit which patients. West Coast 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 West Coast 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
West Coast Fertility Center's IVF success rate
West Coast Fertility Center reports an overall IVF success rate of 23.8% across 298 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. West Coast Fertility Center reported 162 fresh cycles and 136 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. SET rate data for this clinic is shown in the metrics above. Higher SET rates typically mean fewer twins and triplets, which reduces pregnancy complications.
Does this clinic offer donor egg or gestational carrier services?
West Coast 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.
