Associations between sleep quality and assisted reproductive technology outcomes: a meta-analysis
Key Points
Good sleep quality correlates with increased clinical pregnancy rates in couples undergoing ART, suggesting a beneficial link.
Implantation rates are higher for couples with better sleep, as evidenced by the meta-analysis encompassing numerous studies.
The analysis highlights that the effect of sleep on live birth rates remains uncertain and requires further research for clarity.
Findings underscore the importance of addressing sleep quality during ART cycles to potentially improve outcomes.
Abstract
Good sleep quality is associated with higher clinical pregnancy and implantation rates in couples undergoing ART. Its effect on live birth remains inconclusive and warrants further investigation.
