One of the most important aspects of our work is achieving clinical results<\/a>. The way that results of infertility treatment are measured and displayed can vary from clinic to clinic. This can make it difficult for the patient to compare clinics and decide which may better suit their needs. It is important for our patients to understand their realistic chance of succeeding. <\/p>\n\n\n

At Next Fertility Nordic, we share our treatment results on a monthly basis and publish annual summaries on our website<\/a>. The Estonian Medicines Agency and ESHRE collect annual data from fertility treatment clinics.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Usually, the results of infertility treatment for the embryo transfer procedure are presented according to treatment category. In 2025, we performed 231 embryo transfers with a 45% clinical pregnancy rate on average. Patients who used NFN sperm donors for an IUI had a 17% clinical pregnancy rate. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

A pattern has arisen for the past 2 years for the lowest results to occur in both December and January. Perhaps patients are putting too much pressure on themselves during Christmas and the new year. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

It is important to distinguish what a clinic considers a \u2018pregnancy\u2019.<\/strong> A biochemical pregnancy is when an embryo implants and produces the hCG hormone which can be detectable on the home pregnancy test or a blood test, but the embryo stops developing shortly after.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

We focus more on clinical pregnancy results because it is an established pregnancy, where the gestational sac can be visualized on ultrasound at 6 weeks. The data is relatively easy to collect as most patients are still under the care of the IVF centre at this point. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Some clinics are showing their data as cumulative pregnancy \u2013 which means per IVF cycle. This means if a patient had an IVF cycle with a fresh embryo transfer followed by 2 frozen embryo transfers and at the end achieved a pregnancy, the pregnancy data would be inserted as 1\/1, i.e 100% but if they had 3 transfers their chance of pregnancy would actually be 1\/3, i.e 33% per attempt.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ultimately the most important thing is the number of healthy children born. The live birth rate can sometimes be hard to follow since we can only calculate it starting from October of the next year and we need to rely on patients getting back in touch with us.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In 2024, 105 NEXT babies were born.<\/em> <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The number of multiple births is kept to a constant minimum at our clinic. This is the birth of twins or more babies. We average less than 1% chance of multiples with IVF and IUI procedures combined. corresponds to the average in the general population which is 1-1.5% (I,e patients who conceived naturally). <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Patients\u2019 safety\u00a0should be at the forefront of\u00a0making decisions about stimulating more follicles for IUI\u00a0and\u00a0when deciding the\u00a0number of embryos to transfer.\u00a0

As well as pregnancies, the\u00a0lab\u00a0are measuring key performance indicators. These\u00a0include:\u00a0fertilization rate, usable blastocyst rate, blastocyst survival rate after thaw, and successful biopsy rate.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We analyse our lab work because if there is a change in these KPI values, it is important to start investigating what the possible reasons could be. Some factors could be based on things like construction, need to replace filters, change of equipment, change in materials used or change in protocols, change in staff members and so on. Apart from KPIs we are also analysing our environment. This includes: temperature, humidity, gas levels, positive pressure in the lab and whether there is any microbiology detection on surfaces. <\/p>\n\n\n

There is only one thing that is truly important in an IVF laboratory: everything! <\/em> <\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

So ask your providing clinic whether they consider a pregnancy test, or are they assessing the pregnancy at 6 weeks. Find out if they are calculating their results per every transfer or per every IVF cycle or per every patient. It would be good to ask them to give you a specific chance based on your age and treatment plan that you are choosing.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

When choosing an IVF clinic, something that is also important to check early on, before even perhaps booking an initial consultation, is around the legislations because fertility care varies so much around the world. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
