Fertility and IVF calculators

Every calculator in one place, free and with no sign-up. Results show instantly — we don't hide them behind a form. Each one explains what the number means, where the reference ranges come from, and what it cannot tell you.

Common questions

Second opinion

Bring your numbers to someone who can see the rest

A calculator sees three or four figures. A specialist sees your history, your scans, your partner's results, and how you actually responded to treatment. If you're between cycles, changing clinics, or something in your results doesn't add up, a second opinion is the fastest way to find out whether anything would be done differently.

Free first consultation. No obligation to start treatment, and it doesn't affect your care at your current clinic.

These tools provide general information and are not a diagnosis or a substitute for assessment by a qualified clinician. Reference ranges and sources are stated on each calculator. Predictive estimates describe groups of people and cannot predict an individual outcome.

‹ Ovarian response

Oocyte maturity rate

Proportion of retrieved eggs mature enough to fertilise — often a trigger-timing question.

Exact calculationArithmetic on the numbers you enter. If your inputs are right, this figure is right.

inputMature eggs (MII)÷inputTotal eggs retrieved=resultOocyte maturity rate (%)
In short

Oocyte maturity rate is mature MII eggs divided by total eggs retrieved. Typical rates are 75 to 85%; a low rate most often reflects trigger timing relative to follicle size, which is one of the more adjustable findings between cycles.

Source — Typical reported maturity rates cluster around 75–85%, with meaningful variation between units and protocols.

Questions this usually raises

What causes low maturity?

Most commonly trigger timing — given too early relative to follicle size. Trigger type and individual response also matter. It is one of the more modifiable findings between cycles.

Do immature eggs get discarded?

Usually. Some laboratories attempt in-vitro maturation, though outcomes are generally poorer than for naturally mature eggs. Ask your unit whether they do.

Can immature eggs be used at all?

Some laboratories attempt in-vitro maturation, though success rates are meaningfully lower than for naturally mature eggs and not every unit offers it. Ask whether yours does and what its own results look like before counting on it.

Or ask someone
  • A free first consultation covers this properly, with your actual results rather than an estimate
  • Both partners assessed together — male factor is involved in roughly half of cases

Maturity is assessed at the point of stripping for ICSI; units using conventional IVF may not report it separately. Nothing here is a diagnosis or a substitute for assessment by a clinician.
