Assisted Reproduction Registries and Reporting
Abstract
The Human Fertilisation and Embryology Authority (HFEA) reports preliminary UK statistics for IVF and donor insemination (DI) treatment, storage and donation in 2022, published in July 2024. The report states that around 52,500 patients had in vitro fertilisation (IVF) and 3,000 had donor insemination treatment at HFEA licensed fertility centres in the UK in 2022, and that IVF cycles increased to 77,000 in 2022 from around 69,000 in 2019. Sections cover pregnancy and birth rates using fresh and frozen embryo transfers, average age at first IVF treatment, egg and sperm donors, egg storage, multiple births, patients with female partners and single patients, and NHS-funded IVF cycles. The report notes that data on treatments and pregnancies from 2020 to 2022 and outcomes from 2019 to 2022 had not yet been validated, so some data in the report are preliminary and cannot be compared to other reports.
