Inside the hospital where Shenzhen's first IVF baby was born

In Shenzhen, there is a hospital known for helping couples fulfill their dream of parenthood. It delivered the city's very first IVF baby and has since welcomed nearly 50,000 more—a higher total than most hospitals in the city.

Across over 100,000 assisted reproductive cycles, its embryo transfer success rate has held above 65 percent, on par with international standards.

It is Shenzhen Zhongshan Obstetrics & Gynecology Hospital, a 40-year-old pioneer in assisted reproduction based in the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area.

Behind the numbers is a record of innovation, from breakthrough embryology research to a digital immune analysis system that turned "no cause found" into answers for countless families.

Its creed, inherited from founding professor Zhuang Guanglun, is simple: learn English, do research, publish. That is how this hospital keeps hope alive for countless couples trying to become parents.
