The most comprehensive data on USA nationwide 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 based on the age of the intended mother using her own eggs and a surrogate:
It is important to note that these are just averages, and the actual success rate for any individual may vary.
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.

Here are the success rates for surrogacy using an egg donor based on the donor age:
It is important to note that these are just averages, and the actual success rate for any individual may vary.
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.
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.
It is important to note that with any IVF, there is always a risk of the embryo not sticking, a miscarriage or other complications. These are out of the control of the physicians and there is no way to prevent them from happening.
That is why we recommend you have two extra embryos available. In the event of a miscarriage or other complications, the IVF clinic physicians learn from their medical records of what went wrong. They then use this knowledge for a second try using the same surrogate.
The success rate for a second try using the same surrogate is typically higher than the success rate for a first try. This is because the surrogate has already been through the process and knows what to expect. She is also more likely to be emotionally and physically prepared for another pregnancy.
The success rate for a second try using the same surrogate can vary depending on several factors, including the age of the surrogate, the quality of the embryos, and the experience of the surrogacy clinic.
However, in general, the success rate for a second try using the same surrogate is around 70%. Much higher than an industry average of 60% on the first try.
In practice we have found that if you follow the protocol discussed above and work closely with our agency, with a second try, in over 95% of our surrogacies, Intended Parents get the wonderful bundle of joy they have been anxiously waiting for.
If you are considering surrogacy, it is important to discuss your options with a fertility specialist to determine the best course of action for you.
Our job is to listen, to connect the dots between your needs, and to determine how we can best help you have your baby. If you’re asking how much does it cost for a surrogate, we’ll walk you through every step of the process to ensure there are no surprises.
