Abstract:
The purpose of this study is to describe in vitro fertilization (IVF) success rates at our military health care facility. A retrospective analysis was performed for all IVF cycles initiated at Wilford Hall Medical Center from January 1, 1996, to December 31, 1998. During this period, there were 214 IVF cycles initiated with gonadotropin therapy. The overall pregnancy rate, with an intrauterine pregnancy identified by transvaginal ultrasonography, was 45.3%. IVF services can be provided at a military health care facility with a high rate of success.
