Human Fertilisation and Embryology Authority

Published May 27, 2021

Abstract

Fertility treatment 2019: trends and figures is the annual statistical release of the Human Fertilisation and Embryology Authority (HFEA), presenting UK statistics for IVF and donor insemination (DI) treatment, storage and donation. The release reports that in 2019 almost 53,000 patients had 69,000 fresh and frozen IVF cycles and 5,700 DI cycles at HFEA licensed fertility clinics in the United Kingdom. To mark 30 years of the HFEA, the report looks at how treatment numbers, patient demographics and treatment outcomes have changed over three decades, and states that the multiple birth rate reached 6% in 2019, falling from 28% in the 1990s. The figures are official statistics covering the period from 1991-2019 where data is available, and the report states that all data used is pre-COVID 19.
