More than 1.5% of American babies owe their births to IVF
More than 1.5% of babies born in 2013 owe their lives to in vitro fertilization, and fewer of them were twins or triplets, according to new figures from the Society for Assisted Reproductive Technology.
63,286 babies were born as a result of 174,962 attempts to use assisted reproduction treatments, the SART report says. Both figures represent small increases from 2012.
The older the patient, the lower the birth rate:
For women between the ages of 35 and 37, 31% of assisted reproduction cycles using fresh eggs ended with a baby, along with 40% of cycles involving previously frozen eggs.
In the 38-to-40 age group, live births resulted in 21% of ART cycles using fresh eggs and 35% of cycles using thawed eggs.
