Assisted reproductive technology trends in Korea: Annual report for 2022
Nationwide infertility treatment cycle reporting in Korea has enabled detailed monitoring of infertility treatment trends and outcomes. The data show a substantial increase in IVF utilization, a growing preference for frozen-thawed embryo transfer, and broader adoption of single embryo transfer consistent with global practices. Further integration with birth outcome data and longitudinal patient tracking will be essential to evaluate cumulative success rates and overall effectiveness. This national registry provides a foundation for optimizing infertility care and facilitates international benchmarking.
