How to choose an IVF clinic abroad

Reading success data correctly (per transfer vs per patient), accreditation, red flags. This guide uses public registry data (SART/CDC, HFEA, ESHRE) and is written for international patients comparing countries.

Key points

Judge clinics on live-birth per transfer, not pregnancy or per-cycle spin.
Plan for 2–3 cycles — think cost per baby.
Donor eggs reset success to ~48% at any age.
Country law decides if you're even eligible.
