Although ART offers important options for the treatment of infertility, the decision to use ART involves many factors in addition to success rates. Going through repeated ART cycles requires substantial commitments of time, effort, money, and emotional energy. Couples and individuals considering ART should carefully examine all related financial, psychologic, ethical, and medical issues before beginning treatment. They should also contact ART clinics to discuss their specific medical situation and potential for success using ART. The next published report will feature 1996 data and provide a listing of clinics that did not submit data. Eventually, the annual report will include information from all U.S. fertility clinics, not just those that are SART members.
