IVF clinics — Chicago, IL
In vitro fertilization retrieves eggs, fertilizes them in the lab, and transfers a resulting embryo to the uterus. It is the most effective fertility treatment for most diagnoses — and the most expensive, so clinic choice matters twice.
Every U.S. clinic performing IVF must report its outcomes to the CDC under federal law. That means you never have to take an IVF clinic's word for its results: the age-stratified live-birth chart on each profile below comes from that federal registry, not from marketing.

What to ask at a consult
- What is your live-birth rate for my age band — and how many retrievals is that based on?
- Do you practice single embryo transfer by default? What is your multiple-birth rate?
- What does a cycle cost all-in, including medications, monitoring, ICSI, and freezing?
- Is your embryology lab accredited, and who directs it?
Costs are a first-class question for this procedure — see what IVF costs and how to pay less and whether insurance must cover treatment in Illinois.
