How To Maximize Surrogacy Success Rates Using a Surrogate
Option 1: Using the Parent's Own Sperm and Eggs, Having a Surrogate Carry Embryo.
The most comprehensive data on USA nationwide surrogacy success rates comes from the Society for Assisted Reproductive Technology (SART), which collects data from over 90% of the fertility clinics in the United States.
According to SART, the average live birth rate for gestational surrogacy in the United States is 58.9% per transfer. This means that for every 100 embryos transferred, an average of 58.9 babies will be born.
The live birth rate for gestational surrogacy can vary depending on several factors, including the age of the intended mother, the quality of the embryos, and the experience of the surrogacy clinic.
It is important to note that success rates for surrogacy are not guaranteed. There is always a risk of miscarriage or other complications. If you are considering surrogacy, it is important to speak with our fertility specialist to discuss your individual chances of success.
Here are the success rates for surrogacy nationwide in the USA based on the age of the intended mother using her own eggs and a surrogate:
- Age 20-24: 67.9%
- Age 25-29: 64.3%
- Age 30-34: 59.5%
- Age 35-39: 52.9%
- Age 40-44: 39.7%
- Age 45-49: 19.4%
It is important to note that these are just averages, and the actual success rate for any individual may vary.
At our agency we do not recommend using your own eggs if you are over 39 years of age. Instead use an egg donor under 30 years of age to maximize success rates.
Option 2: Using the Parent's Sperm and an Egg donor. Having Surrogate Carry Embryo
According to SART, the average live birth rate for gestational surrogacy using an egg donor in the United States is 64.7% per transfer. This means that for every 100 embryos transferred, an average of 64.7 babies will be born.
The live birth rate for gestational surrogacy using an egg donor can vary depending on several factors, including the age of the intended mother, the quality of the embryos, the experience of the surrogacy clinic, and the age of the egg donor.
It is important to note that success rates for surrogacy using an egg donor are not guaranteed. There is always a risk of miscarriage or other complications. If you are considering surrogacy using an egg donor, it is important to speak with a fertility specialist to discuss your individual chances of success.
Here are the success rates for surrogacy using an egg donor based on the donor age:
- Age 20-24: 72.8%
- Age 25-29: 70.1%
- Age 30-34: 66.2%
It is important to note that these are just averages, and the actual success rate for any individual may vary.
At our agency we recommend using an egg donor under 29 years of age to maximize success rates.
For Above Options: How we maximize surrogacy success rates at Surrogacy4All
As documented in the above CDC analysis, using an egg donor, particularly a younger egg donor, can significantly increase the chances of success compared to using the intended mother’s eggs, especially if the intended mother is older. This is because egg quality and quantity decrease as women age, which can make it harder to conceive and carry a pregnancy to term.
The surrogate’s age can also affect the success rates. Younger surrogates, particularly those in their late 20s to early 30s, tend to have higher success rates. This is because they are often in optimal reproductive health, which can increase the chances of a successful pregnancy.
However, it is important to note that there is no guarantee of success, even with a young egg donor and young surrogate.
It is important to note that success rates for surrogacy using an egg donor are not guaranteed. There is always a risk of miscarriage or other complications.
This is why when Intended Parents ask for “Guaranteed Success,” no IVF clinic or agency can honestly offer that due to the number of unknowns discussed above.
But what we can do is help you maximize success by following the steps below.
Recommendations to maximize success.
According to SART, the average live birth rate for gestational surrogacy using an egg donor in the United States is 64.7% per transfer. This means that for every 100 embryos transferred, an average of 64.7 babies will be born.
To maximize success:
- Pick an egg donor 20 to 29 years of age that has been screened properly.
- Suggest using frozen eggs that are prescreened to be M2 quality, FDA screening passed, and genetically screened.
- Use top quality sperm from a donor bank that has been prescreened.
- If you use your own sperm, use ICSI. Then have the embryos that are created genetically screened using PGD.
- Ensure you create at least four, 5-day old blastocyst embryos .so you have enough for a second try. IVF doctors typically place two embryos at each try. We recommend you start with twelve frozen eggs. These should give you enough embryos to work with.
- Use only the two best quality day 5-day old blastocyst embryos created for the first try.
- Select a surrogate that is under 35 years of age.
- Ensure the surrogate is properly screened by the gynecologist.
- Ensure the surrogate is properly prepared with the right medications at the time and date of transfer of the embryos.
- Then say a prayer for success!
Following this protocol will maximize your likelihood of having a beautiful healthy baby!
