Patient characteristics data summarize the kinds of patients who received ART procedures. Please note patient characteristics are presented per cycle rather than per patient. As a result, patients who had more than one ART cycle within the reporting year are represented more than once.

Because a woman's fertility declines with age, ART data are reported separately by age group. You may wish to find a clinic that commonly sees patients your age.

An important goal of fertility treatment is the birth of a single, term, normal birth weight infant. Displayed below are the percentages of all ART cycles started that resulted in the birth of a full-term single live infant with normal birth weight. Births are defined as term if at least 37 full weeks gestation and normal weight if at least 2,500 grams.

Description of Services and Profile
Description of Services and Profile
ART for single women
ART for single women is when ART treatment is performed for women who report that they are unmarried.
Donor egg services
A donor egg cycle occurs when an embryo is formed from the egg of one woman (the donor) and is transferred to another woman (the recipient).
Donor embryo services
A donor embryo is an embryo that is donated by a patient or couple who previously underwent ART treatment and had extra embryos available.
Gestational carrier services
A gestational carrier is a woman who gestates, or carries, an embryo that was formed from the egg of another woman. The gestational carrier usually has a contractual obligation to return the infant to its intended parents.
SART member
The Society of Assisted Reproductive Technology (SART) is an affiliate of the American Society for Reproductive Medicine (ASRM) and is a professional society composed of clinics and programs that provide ART.
Verified lab accreditation
Clinics with a verified lab accreditation use an embryo laboratory accredited by one or more of three specific accrediting organizations: College of American Pathologists, The Joint Commission, or the New York State Tissue Bank Program (NYSTB). To become certified, laboratories must have in place systems and processes that comply with the accrediting organization’s standards. Depending on the organization, standards may include those for personnel, quality control and quality assurance, specimen tracking, results reporting, and the performance of technical procedures.

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.
Uterine factor
Uterine factor infertility is a structural or functional disorder of the uterus that results in reduced fertility.
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.
Diminished ovarian reserve
Diminished ovarian reserve means that the ability of the ovary to produce eggs is reduced. Reasons include congenital, medical, or surgical causes or advanced age.
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.
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.
Other factor
Other causes of infertility include immunological problems, chromosomal abnormalities, cancer chemotherapy, and serious illnesses.
Unknown factor
Unknown cause of infertility is a diagnostic category used when no cause of infertility is found in either the woman or the man.
Multiple female factors only
Multiple female factor infertility is a diagnostic category used when more than one female cause of infertility but no male factor infertility is diagnosed.
Multiple female & male factors
Multiple female and male factor infertility is a diagnostic category used when one or more female and male causes of infertility are diagnosed.
Cleavage stage transfer
A cleavage stage transfer occurs when an embryo is transferred after being cultured in a laboratory for 2 to 3 days after insemination.
Blastocyst stage transfer
A blastocyst stage transfer occurs when an embryo is transferred after being cultured in a laboratory for 5 to 6 days after insemination.
One embryo transferred
Placement of a single embryo into a woman’s uterus through the cervix after IVF: in ZIFT, zygotes are placed in a woman’s fallopian tube.
Two embryos transferred
Placement of two embryos into a woman’s uterus through the cervix after IVF: in ZIFT, zygotes are placed in a woman’s fallopian tube.
More than two embryos transferred
Placement of three or more embryos into a woman’s uterus through the cervix after IVF: in ZIFT, zygotes are placed in a woman’s fallopian tube.

Description
Fresh embryos from nondonor eggs
Fresh non-donor ART cycles are those cycles that were performed using a woman's own eggs or embryos that have not been frozen.
Frozen embryos from nondonor eggs
Frozen non-donor ART cycles are those cycles in which a woman's own frozen embryos are thawed and transferred to the woman.
Fresh or Frozen embryos from donor eggs
Donor ART cycles are those cycles performed using a donor egg or embryo.
