Figure
25

Figure 25 is a bar graph representing percentage of live births
per retrieval for ART cycles using fresh nondonor eggs or embryos among
couples diagnosed with male factor infertility who used IVF with ICSI (intracytoplasmic
sperm injection) in comparison to IVF without ICSI, by woman’s age, 2003.
Note: Cycles using donor sperm and cycles using GIFT or ZIFT are excluded.
The comparison group of IVF without ICSI includes couples with all
diagnoses except male factor infertility.
- Age <35, IVF without ICSI 42.6%, IVF with ICSI 41.8%
- Age 35–37, IVF without ICSI 35.9%, IVF with ICSI 35.0%
- Age 38–40, IVF without ICSI 26.2%, IVF with ICSI 24.1%
- Age 41–42, IVF without ICSI 16.1%, IVF with ICSI 13.5%
- Age >42, IVF without ICSI 6.0%, IVF with ICSI 4.2%
Figure
26

Figure 26 is a bar graph representing the percentage of live
births per retrieval for ART cycles using fresh nondonor eggs or embryos
among couples not diagnosed with male factor infertility, by use of ICSI (intracytoplasmic
sperm injection) and woman’s age, 2003. Note: Cycles using GIFT and ZIFT
are excluded.
- Age <35, IVF without ICSI 42.6%, IVF with ICSI 37.8%
- Age 35–37, IVF without ICSI 35.9%, IVF with ICSI 32.2%
- Age 38–40, IVF without ICSI 26.2%, IVF with ICSI 21.8%
- Age 41–42, IVF without ICSI 16.1%, IVF with ICSI 11.0%
- Age >42, IVF without ICSI 6.0%, IVF with ICSI 4.2%
Figure
27

Figure 27 is a pie chart representing the number of embryos
transferred during ART cycles using fresh nondonor eggs or embryos, 2003.
- One, 7.5%
- Two, 36.2%
- Three, 32.7%
- Four, 15.6%
- Five, 5.1%
- Six, 1.9%
- Seven or more, 0.9%
Figure
28

Figure 28 is a bar graph representing the percentage of
live births per transfer and the percentages of multiple-infant births for
ART cycles using fresh nondonor eggs or embryos, by number of embryos
transferred, 2003. Note: In rare cases a single embryo may divide and thus
produce twins. For this reason a small percentage of twins resulted from a
single embryo transfer and a small percentage of triplets resulted when
two embryos were transferred.
- 1 Embryo transferred, Live births per transfer 13.2%. Of these live
births, 97.7% were singletons and 2.3% were twins.
- 2 Embryos transferred, Live births per transfer 40.2%. Of these live
births, 67.1% were singletons, 32.0% were twins and 0.9% were triplets
or more.
- 3 Embryos transferred, Live births per transfer 36.9%. Of these live
births, 62.9% were singletons, 32.0% were twins and 5.2% were triplets
or more.
- 4 Embryos transferred, Live births per transfer 32.0%. Of these live
births, 62.9% were singletons, 32.2% were twins and 4.9% were triplets
or more.
- 5 or more Embryos transferred, Live births per transfer 26.6%. Of
these live births, 66.0% were singletons, 29.5% were twins and 4.5% were
triplets or more.
Figure
29

Figure 29 is a bar graph representing live births per
transfer and percentages of multiple-infant births for ART cycles in women
who were younger than 35; used fresh nondonor eggs or embryos, and set
aside extra embryos for future use, by number of embryos transferred,
2003. Note: In rare cases, a single embryo may divide and thus produce
twins. For this reason, a small percentage of twins resulted from a single
embryo transfer and a small percentage of triplets resulted when two
embryos were transferred.
- 1 Embryo transferred, Live births per transfer 39.5%. Of these live
births, 99.0% were singletons, 1.0% were twins.
- 2 Embryos transferred, Live births per transfer 53.3%. Of these live
births, 60.5% were singletons, 38.6% were twins and 0.9% were triplets
or more.
- 3 Embryos transferred, Live births per transfer 49.2%. Of these live
births, 53.9% were singletons, 37.8% were twins and 8.3% were triplets
or more.
- 4 Embryos Transferred, Live births per transfer 45.9%. Of these live
births, 43.5% were singletons, 46.7% were twins and 9.9% were triplets
or more.
- 5 or more Embryos transferred, Live births per transfer 48.2%. Of
these live births, 48.2% were singletons, 41.7% were twins and 10.2%
were triplets or more.
Figure
30

Figure 30 is a pie chart representing the day of embryo transfer
among ART cycles using fresh nondonor eggs or embryos, 2003. Note: Day of
embryo transfer is defined as the number of days following egg retrieval.
Cycles using GIFT and ZIFT are excluded. Missing or implausible values for
day of embryo transfer (i.e., 0 or >6) are not included in these
statistics.
- Day 1, 0.1%
- Day 2, 4.1%
- Day 3, 72.7%
- Day 4, 3.8%
- Day 5, 17.6%
- Day 6, 1.7%
Figure
31

Figure 31 is a bar graph representing live births per transfer
for ART cycles using fresh nondonor eggs or embryos, for day 3 and day 5
embryo transfers, 2003. Note: Cycles using GIFT and ZIFT are excluded.
This comparison is limited to transfers on day 3 and day 5. Embryo
transfers performed on days 1, 2, 4, and 6 are not included because each of
these accounted for a small proportion of procedures.
- Age <35, day 3 42.1%, day 5 49.6%
- Age 35–37, day 3 35.4%, day 5 44.9%
- Age 38–40, day 3 25.5%, day 5 32.2%
- Age 41–42, day 3 14.7%, day 5 20.5%
- Age >42, day 3 6.0%, day 5 6.7%
Figure 32

Figure 32 consists of two pie
charts representing the number of embryos transferred during ART cycles
using fresh nondonor eggs or embryos for day 3 and day 5 embryo transfers,
2003. Note: Cycles using GIFT and ZIFT are excluded. This
comparison is limited to transfers on day 3 and day 5. Embryo transfers
performed on days 1, 2, 4, and 6 are not included because each of these
accounted for a small proportion of procedures.
-
Day 3:
-
1 Embryo
transferred, 6.9%
-
2 Embryos transferred, 29.2%
-
3 Embryos transferred, 35.9%
-
4 or more Embryos transferred, 27.9%
-
Day 5:
-
1 Embryo transferred, 7.0%
-
2 Embryos transferred, 66.0%
-
3 Embryos transferred, 21.2%
-
4 or more Embryos transferred, 5.9%
Figure 33

Figure 33 depicts two pie charts, A and B, representing the risk of
having multiple-infant live birth for ART cycles using fresh nondonor eggs
or embryos for day 3 and day 5 embryo transfers, 2003. Note: Cycles using
GIFT and ZIFT are excluded. This comparison is limited to transfers on day 3
and day 5. Embryo transfers performed on days 1, 2, 4, and 6 are not
included because each of these accounted for a small proportion of
procedures.
-
Pie chart A represents 17,681 live births
-
Singletons: 66.6%
-
Total multiple-infant live births 33.3%, which are
further subdivided as follows:
-
Twins: 29.9%
-
Triplets or more: 3.4%
-
Pie chart B represents 5,705 live births
-
Singletons: 61.9%
-
Total multiple-infant live births 38.2%, which are
further subdivided as follows:
-
Twins: 36.0%
-
Triplets or more: 2.2%
Figure 34

Figure 34 is a bar graph representing a comparison of
live births per transfer between cycles that used gestational carriers and
those that did not (both using fresh nondonor embryos), by ART patient’s
age, 2003.
Note: Age categories reflect the age of the ART patient, not the age of the
gestational carrier.
-
Age <35, did not use gestational carrier, 43.1%
-
Age <35, used gestational carrier, 50.6%
-
Age 35–37, did not use gestational carrier, 36.5%
-
Age 35–37,
used gestational carrier, 44.5%
-
Age 38–40,
did not use gestational carrier, 26.1%
-
Age 38–40,
used gestational carrier, 21.9%
-
Age >40, did not use gestational carrier, 12.1%
-
Age >40, used gestational carrier, 18.5%
Note: We were unable to further subdivide age >40 because
the number of such cycles is very small.
Figure 35
Figure 35 is a bar graph representing live birth rates for ART cycles
using fresh nondonor eggs or embryos, by clinic size, 2003. Note: clinic
size is determined by number of cycles performed in 2003.
-
Clinic size <61, 25.8%
-
Clinic size 61–131, 29.2%
-
Clinic size 132–258, 29.1%
-
Clinic size >258, 28.1%
