Description of Clinic Services & Profile
Service
Description
Donor egg services
A clinic may have a donor egg program for ART in which a donor egg is retrieved from one woman (the donor) and fertilized with either partner or donor sperm, and then the resulting embryo is transferred to the uterus of another woman (the recipient). A "Yes" indicates the clinic provided the service, and a "No" means they did not.
Donated embryo services
A clinic may have a donated embryo program using embryos that were donated by other patients who previously underwent ART treatment and had extra embryos available. A "Yes" indicates the clinic provided the service, and a "No" means they did not.
Embryo cryopreservation services
A clinic may have a program for embryo cryopreservation, or freezing embryos for potential future use. A "Yes" indicates the clinic provided the service, and a "No" means they did not.
Egg cryopreservation services
A clinic may have a program for egg cryopreservation, or freezing eggs for potential future use. A "Yes" indicates the clinic provided the service, and a "No" means they did not.
Gestational carrier services
A clinic may have a gestational carrier program. A gestational carrier or surrogate is a woman who gestates, or carries, an embryo that was formed from the egg of another woman with the expectation of returning the infant to its intended parents. Some states do not permit clinics to offer this service. A "Yes" indicates the clinic provided the service, and a "No" means they did not.
SART member
A clinic may be a member of the Society for Assisted Reproductive Technology (SART) - a professional society composed of clinics and programs that provide ART and an affiliate of the American Society for Reproductive Medicine (ASRM). A "Yes" indicates the clinic was a member of SART at the time of reporting, and a "No" means it was not.
Verified lab accreditation
A clinic laboratory may be accredited by at least one of the specified accrediting organizations: the College of American Pathologists, or The Joint Commission. A "Yes" indicates the clinic had an embryo laboratory accreditation at the time of reporting by at least one of the specified accrediting organizations. A "No" indicates that the embryo laboratory was not accredited by any of these organizations or did not provide proof of accreditation to CDC. A "Pending" means that the clinic submitted an application for accreditation to one or both of the organizations and provided proof of such application to CDC. Please note that effective in 2021, the New York State Tissue Bank is no longer providing accreditation for embryo laboratories.
Description of Clinic Summary
Service
Description
Total cycles
The total number of all ART cycles started, which usually means that a woman began taking medication to stimulate egg production or began monitoring with the intent of having embryos transferred. The total number of ART cycles is calculated as the sum of (1) the number of cycles started with the intent to freeze all resulting eggs or embryos (for example, short term banking or fertility preservation); (2) the number of cycles started with the intent to transfer fresh or frozen eggs retrieved from either the patient or donor; and (3) the number of cycles started with the intent to transfer fresh or frozen embryos created from fresh or frozen eggs retrieved from either the patient or donor.
Fertility preservation cycles
The total number of ART cycles started with the intent of freezing and banking all eggs or embryos for at least 12 months for future use.
Pregnancies
The total number of pregnancies that resulted from ART cycles. Because some pregnancies end in a miscarriage or stillbirth, the number of pregnancies may be higher than the number of deliveries or infants born.
Deliveries
The total number of live-birth deliveries of infants conceived with the help of ART. One delivery could result in one or more infants born.
Total infants born
The total number of infants born who were conceived using ART, including singleton infants and infants born in a multiple-birth delivery (such as twins or triplets).
Diagnosis Description
Diagnosis
Description
No filter
Male factor
Male factor infertility refers to any cause of infertility due to low sperm count or problems with sperm function that makes it difficult for a sperm to fertilize an egg under normal conditions.
Endometriosis
Endometriosis is a medical condition that involves the presence of tissue similar to the uterine lining in abnormal locations. This condition can affect both fertilization of the egg and embryo implantation.
Tubal factor
Tubal factor infertility is a diagnostic category used when the woman’s fallopian tubes are blocked or damaged, making it difficult for the egg to be fertilized or for an embryo to travel to the uterus.
Ovulatory dysfunction
Ovulatory dysfunction is a diagnostic category used when a woman’s ovaries are not producing eggs normally. It includes polycystic ovary syndrome and multiple ovarian cysts.
Uterine factor
Uterine factor infertility is a structural or functional disorder of the uterus that results in reduced fertility.
Diminished ovarian reserve
Diminished ovarian reserve means that the ability of the ovary to produce eggs is reduced. Reasons include congenital, medical, surgical causes, or advanced age.
Recurrent pregnancy loss
Recurrent pregnancy loss is a diagnostic category in which a patient has experienced the spontaneous loss of two or more pregnancies.
Unexplained factor
Unexplained infertility is a diagnostic category used when no cause of infertility is found in either the woman or the man.
Egg/Embryo Type Descriptions
Egg Type
Description
Fresh Embryos Fresh Eggs
This group of ART cycles involves fresh embryos created from fresh donor eggs. The eggs were retrieved from a donor and fertilized during the current cycle. Neither the eggs from a donor nor any resulting embryos were ever frozen prior to transfer.
Fresh Embryos Frozen Eggs
This group of ART cycles involves fresh embryos created from frozen donor eggs. The eggs were retrieved from a donor during a previous cycle and frozen for future use. The eggs were then thawed, fertilized, and transferred in the current year. The eggs from the donor were frozen prior to transfer, but any resulting embryos were not.
Frozen Embryos
This group of ART cycles involves frozen embryos created from fresh or frozen donor eggs. In the case of fresh donor eggs, the eggs were retrieved from a donor during a previous cycle and immediately fertilized, and then the resulting embryos were frozen for future use. In the case of frozen donor eggs, the eggs were retrieved from a donor during a previous cycle, frozen, thawed, and fertilized, and then the resulting embryos were frozen for future use. For both fresh and frozen eggs from donors, the frozen embryos were thawed in the current year for transfer.
Donated Embryos
This group of ART cycles involves donated embryos for transfer in the current year—that is, embryos donated from another patient or couple after their own ART treatment. The embryos can be fresh or frozen.

Ovulatory dysfunction is a diagnostic category used when a woman’s ovaries are not producing eggs normally. It includes polycystic ovary syndrome and multiple ovarian cysts.
Diminished ovarian reserve
Diminished ovarian reserve means that the ability of the ovary to produce eggs is reduced. Reasons include congenital, medical, surgical causes, or advanced age.

Endometriosis is a medical condition that involves the presence of tissue similar to the uterine lining in abnormal locations. This condition can affect both fertilization of the egg and embryo implantation.
Male factor
Male factor infertility refers to any cause of infertility due to low sperm count or problems with sperm function that makes it difficult for a sperm to fertilize an egg under normal conditions.
Egg or embryo banking
Egg or embryo banking cycle. An ART cycle started with the intention of freezing (cryopreserving) all resulting eggs or embryos for potential future use.
Recurrent pregnancy loss
Recurrent pregnancy loss is a diagnostic category in which a patient has experienced the spontaneous loss of two or more pregnancies.
Preimplantation genetic testing
Preimplantation genetic testing (PGT). Diagnostic or screening techniques performed on embryos prior to transfer for detecting specific genetic conditions to reduce the risk of passing inherited diseases to children or screening for an abnormal number of chromosomes, which is of special value for patients with advanced age, recurrent miscarriages, or prior failed in vitro fertilization.
Gestational carrier
Gestational carrier (also called a gestational surrogate). A woman who gestates, or carries, an embryo that was formed from the egg of another woman with the expectation of returning the infant to its intended parents.
Other factor
Other known reasons may be either related to infertility (such as immunological problems, chromosomal abnormalities, cancer chemotherapy, serious illnesses), or not related to infertility, but not unexplained.
Unexplained factor
Unexplained infertility is a diagnostic category used when no cause of infertility is found in either the woman or the man.
