At PCRM we have a pregnancy rate of 65% for women under age 35, and 58% overall pregnancy rate for all women under 42, which is amongst the best in the country. By comparison, the Canadian national average pregnancy rate per cycle for women under age 35 in the 2009 publication by the Canadian Fertility Andrology Society (CFAS) is 45%, and the pregnancy rate for all women is 36%. The most recent CDC (US) update (2007) also shows a US national pregnancy rate for all women of 35%.
