Total transfers (all egg sources, the CDC's denominator): 2020: 4,296 · 2021: 5,080 · 2022: 4,648

Volume estimate = the CDC's reported all-ages share of transfers that used a gestational carrier × the program's total transfers (the transfer count the CDC uses as that share's denominator). Where the CDC suppressed the all-ages share, the age-group shares are used instead and the tile says so.

Nearly all donor-egg transfers today are frozen embryo transfers — the embryo is frozen for genetic testing or scheduling whether the eggs were fresh or banked — so that is the figure to compare.

Questions about Boston IVF

Does Boston IVF do gestational carrier cycles, and how many?

Yes, as a small part of a large program. The CDC's figures give an estimated 74 transfers with a gestational carrier in 2022, 71 in 2021 and 60 in 2020, out of 4,648 embryo transfers in 2022. That is about 1.6%; across all U.S. clinics the figure is about 5%.

Which Boston IVF office has the IVF lab?

Waltham (130 Second Ave). The clinic's website describes the other eight Massachusetts offices listed here as monitoring centers: Downtown Boston, Brookline, Quincy, Stoneham, Westborough, Worcester, Springfield and Concord.

What are Boston IVF's results with donor eggs?

Boston IVF reported 510 transfers in donor egg cycles for 2022. With frozen embryos from donor eggs, 38% of transfers led to a live birth (U.S.: 45%); with fresh embryos from frozen donor eggs, 46% (U.S.: 45%).

Does Boston IVF have offices outside Massachusetts?

Yes. Its website also lists centers in New Hampshire (Bedford, Portsmouth), Maine (South Portland), Rhode Island (Providence) and New York (Albany, Syracuse, Rochester). They are not on this page: the figures here are for the program the CDC registers in Waltham, and centers in other states may report to the CDC as programs of their own.
