What is the success rate of IVF in Malaysia?

Our IVF clinics in Malaysia have demonstrated some of the highest success rates in IVF. With the transfer of a single good-graded euploid blastocyst, the doctors have been able to achieve over 82% success in IVF.

It is a complex technology but there’s something to learn with every cycle.

With newer technologies like PGT-A, fertility specialists in Malaysia have been able to achieve the below success rates (for the year 2021):

Female ageIVF + PGT Success
30-34 years74%
35-39 years73%
40-44 years66%

Doctors are able to achieve high success in IVF by:

  • Optimizing the stimulation process
  • Delaying IVF if required
  • Selecting the right embryo for transfer (with or without genetic testing)
  • Creating the right uterine environment for embryo implantation are

Even though it adds to the expense, PGS technology allows the doctors to select the best quality embryo, which in turn raises the chances of successful conception and a healthy pregnancy. This efficacy of PGS, has been corroborated by several independent studies around the world.

If must be noted though, PGS is more helpful in women over 35, but in younger patients the success rates of IVF with PGS or without PGS are quite at par.

Some of our top Malaysian IVF doctors have established that the transfer of a single good graded euploid blastocyst brings about the highest success rates—upto 82.9%.

How to select your IVF clinic?

Many patients, when looking for IVF, base their decision solely on the treatment cost, which could be detrimental to your parenthood dreams.

While cost in an important factor, you must not ignore that treatment quality, success rates, the doctor’s knowledge and capability, and overall clinic standards are more important factors if you want the greatest bang for your buck.

Any money you spend on a failed IVF cycle, is money wasted. Besides, the more experienced your doctor, the better equipped they are to handle any risks or complications in your IVF treatment.

We look for the following three essential qualities while selecting an IVF clinic and recommend that you also check for:

  • Education and experience of the doctor
  • Credibility of the hospital/clinic
  • Honesty in practice

Is donor egg IVF in Malaysia legal?

The quality of eggs is one of the most common reasons for IVF failure, and it declines steeply as a woman ages.

If you have low ovarian reserve or have had multiple failed cycles of IVF with your own eggs, you might have to consider an egg donor for your IVF cycle.

IVF with donor eggs in Malaysia is legally allowed and regulated well. You can send in your donor requirements like race, nationality, complexion, height, education, etc. and we will connect you with the donor bank to provide closely matching profiles.

Cost of donor egg IVF in Malaysia will depend upon the profile you choose. Donor remuneration starts from around $3,000, but the cost can be higher as it really depends upon the donor’s profile. Chinese and Asian profiles are more easily available, while Caucasian profiles are relatively more expensive. However, other factors are also considered and the cost will be provided along with the profiles.

Is PGS/PGD testing available in Malaysia?

If you also need Preimplantation Genetic Diagnosis or PGD testing with IVF, Malaysia has the finest of genetic laboratories.

You may be eligible for PGD/PGS if you have any of the following:

  • Family history of genetic diseases
  • Recurrent miscarriages
  • Several IVF failures
  • Previous children with genetic problems

PGD/PGS testing is also offered to females close to or over 35 years of age to check the genetic content of the embryos before transferring them to the uterus, so as to improve their chances of a successful pregnancy.

International patients in Malaysia

According to media reports, Chinese couples, frustrated with the long waiting lines in their own country, flock to Malaysia for IVF.

Not just China, patients from Indonesia, Philippines, Fiji, Australia, New Zealand, Vietnam, Bangladesh, United States, UAE, Qatar, and African countries also come to Malaysia to benefit from the advanced IVF infrastructure and excellent facilities.

We see a lot of patients delaying their treatments while they keep planning. It is good to take time to plan if you are in your 20s or early 30s, but research suggests that advanced age can cause conception problems later in life, even with IVF.

So, if you are unable to conceive even after trying for 6 months, it is advisable to atleast get medical opinion. You don’t know how much money and emotional trauma you can save by giving timely attention to infertility.
