Success Of Fertility Treatment May Approach Natural Birth Rate

“A groundbreaking study of nearly 250,000 U.S. women reveals live birth rates approaching natural fertility can be achieved using assisted reproductive technology, where eggs are removed from a woman�s ovaries, combined with sperm and then returned to the woman�s body. The research, led by Michigan State University�s Barbara Luke and published in the New England Journal of Medicine, highlights what factors help or hinder getting pregnant using assisted reproductive technology, or ART. The results indicate that when there are favorable patient and embryo characteristics, live birth rates with ART can approach those of natural fertility. �This is good news for women who are trying to have a child,� said Luke, a researcher in the College of Human Medicine�s Department of Obstetrics, Gynecology and Reproductive Biology.
