A multifactorial analysis of in vitro fertilization outcomes

This study analyzed the data collected from the patients undergoing in vitro fertilization (IVF) to investigate the association between maternal age, Anti-Müllerian Hormone (AMH) -a protein hormone produced by the cells surrounding the developing eggs- levels, Antral Follicular Count (AFC) -a measure of ovarian reserve or potential fertility, and Body Mass Index (BMI), and key reproductive outcomes including retrieved eggs, maturation rate, embryo development rate, and live birth. An analysis of multiple factors and IVF outcomes showed that maternal age remains the most significant factor of the IVF success. Although AMH and AFC are strong markers of ovarian response, their association with live birth is limited. Additionally, BMI did not show a significant impact on the outcomes.
