In 2010, there were 4332 cycles of IVF delivered in Scotland, resulting in the birth of 1043 live babies. This is an increase of 25% on 2 years previously. 3031 of these cycles are delivered in the four NHS units, although only 1374 cycles (45%) are commissioned by NHS Boards. The remainder are provided to fee paying patients.
