Pregnancy Success Rates at Bourn Hall Clinic
At Bourn Hall Clinic, we prefer to give figures that apply to you personally, rather than quote averages. That’s because everyone is unique and your individual circumstances will affect your chances of becoming pregnant. This means that we need to meet you and hear about your situation before we offer any advice or assess the likelihood of you fulfilling your dream.
Even so, some patients still ask us for more generalised figures, including the number of treatments we carry out each year and their outcome. You’ll find some of these facts below:

2010 Highlights
| Treatment | Aged 37 and Under | Aged 38 and Above | ||
| IVF with day 5 Blastocyst transfer | 37.8% | 218/576 | 33.5% | 61/182 |
| IVF with day 2 transfer | 26.8% | 125/466 | 13.8% | 32/260 |
| IUI (partner) | 15.4% | 10/65 | 6.6% | 1/15 |
| IUI (donor sperm) | 23.3% | 14/60 | 10% | 1/10 |
- In 2010, the Bourn Hall Multiple Birth Minimisation Strategy maintained clinical pregnancy rates. For example, 262 patients with an average age of 32, who had a single blastocyst replaced, achieved a 42.7% clinical pregnancy rate – with only two sets of twins. This shows that our Single Embryo Transfer protocol has driven down the number of multiple births, while continuing to achieve excellent success rates.
- Even though government regulations in respect of multiple birth targets are becoming stricter, we’re committed to continuing to provide patient choice and good pregnancy rates. We believe our strategy, and close attention to the growth and development of your embryos, achieves this.
While all of these facts and figures are a cause for optimism, they can only provide a partial view – one that doesn’t fully reflect your personal circumstances. That’s why we’d really prefer to get to know you before giving you an idea about your own chances of success.
