| Understanding Success Rates |
| |
Reproductive Medicine Associates of Texas (RMA-TX) belongs to a well known RMA Network of IVF Centers throughout the United States. The network is internationally recognized for achieving high success rates for infertility treatment. RMA attributes its success to a variety of factors including the experience and dedication of our physician and laboratory teams, individualized IVF protocols, laboratory conditions and techniques, and breakthrough technologies. The RMA Network has performed over 15000 cycles of In Vitro Fertilization, a record that makes us one of the world’s largest and more experienced centers for infertility treatments.
When it comes to IVF, the roles of the physicians and those of the embryologists in the laboratory are distinctly different, yet equally important. The IVF program at RMA is unique because our Laboratory Director of Assisted Reproductive Technologies is both a board certified Reproductive Endocrinologist and board certified by the American Board of Bioanalysis as an embryologist, andrologist, and high-complexity clinical laboratory director. These unusual qualifications have allowed RMA to successfully integrate the clinical and laboratory components of ART to achieve excellent results for our patients. Our Medical Director, Dr. Francisco Arredondo is the only board certified Fertility Specialist in the San Antonio Stone Oak area and has ample experience managing all different fertility challenges.
- RMA of Texas has higher pregnancy rates and implantation rates as compared to the most current national averages with fewer transferred embryos in patients up to 40 years of age.
- Oocyte donor statistics best demonstrate the quality of an IVF program and lab as it removes confounding variables such as individual ovarian reserve.
- RMA of Texas pregnancy rates with donor oocyte IVF exceeded national averages by 35% in 2009.
- RMA of Texas recognizes the importance of a healthy and safe pregnancy for both mother and baby. That is the reason we advocate for single embryo blastocyst transfers to reduce the risk of multiples in good prognosis patients under age 35.
- RMA of Texas does not have strict follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) cut off values to participate in the IVF program because we recognize the importance of giving women a chance to conceive using their own eggs.
