Starting your IVF journey is a significant step, and it’s natural to have questions about what to expect and where to begin. Having access to verified outcome data can help you feel more informed as you navigate your options. Dr Becky Taylor, a fertility specialist at Genea Sydney CBD, supports transparent reporting of IVF outcomes so patients have access to the information they need.
The figures below are sourced from YourIVFSuccess, an independent government-funded website that publishes verified IVF outcome data for accredited Australian clinics that opt into public reporting. All Genea clinics participate.
The data spans several reporting periods and measures of treatment success. Across each measure shown below, Genea Sydney CBD’s outcomes are reported as being above the Australian national average.
IVF is not a single event but a process that spans several stages. From egg collection to embryo transfer and pregnancy, each stage provides different information about treatment outcomes.
Because of this, success rates are reported across a number of different measures. The five measures below cover varying reporting periods, offering both historical context and the most recently available data from Genea Sydney CBD.
A single egg retrieval cycle can produce several embryos, which may be transferred across multiple months or even years. This measure shows the chance of a live birth from all fresh and frozen embryo transfers resulting from one complete egg retrieval cycle.
Because it accounts for every embryo created from that retrieval, it provides a comprehensive picture of the potential outcome from a single cycle.
| Age Group | Genea Sydney CBD | National |
|---|---|---|
| <35 years | 49.9% | 46.4% |
| 35-42 years | 27.1% | 23.6% |
| Egg retrieval year: 2022 | Embryo transfer years: 2022 & 2023 | ||
For those beginning IVF for the first time, this measure can be a useful reference point. It shows the chance of a live birth from all fresh and frozen embryo transfers resulting from a patient’s first-ever egg retrieval cycle.
Because it focuses solely on first-time retrievals, it allows for a more consistent comparison across patients who are new to IVF treatment.
| Age Group | Genea Sydney CBD | National |
|---|---|---|
| <35 years | 55.4% | 52.3% |
| 35-42 years | 37.8% | 30.6% |
| Egg retrieval year: 2022 | Embryo transfer years: 2022 & 2023 | ||
This measure reflects the likelihood of achieving a live birth from each individual treatment cycle where an embryo transfer was attempted. Compared with Measures 1 and 2, it draws on more recent treatment data.
| Age Group | Genea Sydney CBD | National |
|---|---|---|
| <35 years | 43.8% | 34.5% |
| 35-38 years | 33.3% | 28.1% |
| 39-42 years | 23.6% | 16.7% |
| Treatment year: 2023 | ||
This measure looks at the chance of a live birth from each individual embryo transferred, whether fresh or frozen, within a single reporting year.
| Age Group | Genea Sydney CBD | National |
|---|---|---|
| <35 years | 47.0% | 36.9% |
| 35-38 years | 36.7% | 31.1% |
| 39-42 years | 27.8% | 19.3% |
| Treatment year: 2023 | ||
Reaching a clinical pregnancy confirmed by ultrasound is a meaningful milestone during IVF treatment. This measure shows the likelihood of achieving that outcome from each treatment attempt involving an intended embryo transfer.
Of all five measures, it represents the most recently published outcome data.
| Age Group | Genea Sydney CBD | National |
|---|---|---|
| <35 years | 54.0% | 41.4% |
| 35-38 years | 43.3% | 35.3% |
| 39-42 years | 28.7% | 24.8% |
| Treatment year: 2024 | ||
While IVF success rates can provide helpful context when comparing clinic outcomes, they represent overall averages rather than predicting the outcome of treatment for any individual patient.
A range of factors may influence fertility treatment outcomes, including age, fertility diagnosis, ovarian reserve and general medical history. Because every fertility journey is different, personalised medical advice is important when considering IVF or other treatment options.
Dr Becky Taylor takes a personalised approach to fertility care, carefully reviewing each patient’s medical history and individual circumstances to help guide appropriate treatment decisions.

Dr Becky Taylor practises at Genea Sydney CBD, where IVF clinic outcomes are independently reported through YourIVFSuccess, a government-funded platform that publishes verified results for accredited IVF clinics in Australia.
Across all five reported measures and time periods, Genea Sydney CBD’s outcomes are reported as being above the Australian national average.
For patients having their first IVF egg retrieval, the live birth rate per first retrieval cycle at Genea Sydney CBD is:
A full breakdown of outcomes by measure and age group is shown above.
Success rates for a first IVF attempt are commonly reported as live births per first egg retrieval cycle (Measure 2). This measure includes all embryo transfers — both fresh and frozen — created from a patient’s first egg collection.
At Genea Sydney CBD, the reported live birth rate per first retrieval cycle is:
These results are sourced from YourIVFSuccess data (egg retrieval year 2022, embryo transfer years 2022–2023).
During your consultation, Dr Becky Taylor will also discuss how your age, medical history and other individual factors may influence your treatment options and potential outcomes.
Age is one of the most significant factors influencing IVF outcomes. Both egg quality and egg quantity tend to decline over time, which can affect the likelihood of a successful pregnancy through IVF.
At Genea Sydney CBD, the reported live birth rate per first egg retrieval cycle is 55.4% for patients under 35, compared with 37.8% for patients aged 35–42.
During your consultation, Dr Becky Taylor will discuss how age and other individual factors may influence your fertility treatment options and potential outcomes.
When reviewing IVF success rates, it’s important to compare clinics using the same reporting measures.
Results may vary depending on patient demographics, reporting timeframes, and how success is defined or measured. The YourIVFSuccess framework standardises five key measures, helping patients compare clinics using consistent data.
Reviewing all five measures across different age groups can provide a more complete overview of reported clinic outcomes.
Genea Sydney CBD’s IVF outcomes are reported as being above the Australian national average across all five YourIVFSuccess measures and age groups shown on this page.
In Australia, IVF success rates are published at the clinic level rather than for individual specialists. This means the reported outcomes reflect results achieved across the clinic where treatment takes place.
Dr Becky Taylor practises at Genea Sydney CBD, and the success rates shown on this page represent the outcomes reported for that clinic.
Published IVF success rates provide a useful overview of clinic outcomes but cannot predict an individual patient’s results.
Your chances of success depend on many factors, including your age, fertility diagnosis, ovarian reserve and overall medical history.
During your consultation, Dr Becky Taylor will review your individual circumstances and discuss how these factors may influence your treatment options and potential outcomes.
IVF success can be measured in different ways depending on which stage of treatment is being assessed.
Because IVF involves several stages — from egg collection to embryo transfer and pregnancy — no single statistic can fully represent the entire treatment process.
For this reason, YourIVFSuccess publishes several standardised measures to provide a more complete picture of reported clinic outcomes.
If you are beginning IVF, Measure 2 (births per first retrieval cycle) can be particularly relevant. Reviewing multiple measures together can help provide a broader understanding of outcomes across different stages of treatment. Genea has developed a detailed guide explaining the YourIVFSuccess measures and how to interpret the data. You can read it here.
