Preimplantation genetic testing for aneuploidy is associated with increased pregnancy success and reduced miscarriage in women 35 years and older when embryos are available for transfer. In this retrospective cohort study our objective was to evaluate if this holds true in good prognosis patients and across all age groups. Data were obtained from the Society for Assisted Reproductive Technology between 2014-2015. We included only the first single frozen embryo transfer where indication for corresponding 'stimulation/freeze-all cycle' was for reducing risk of ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome and performance of PGT-A for selecting euploid embryos. Our main outcomes were live birth and miscarriage rates. Among 37 year old, no difference was observed between non-PGT-A tested and tested groups in LBR (48.1% vs. 53.2%, aOR 1.27, 95% CI 0.8-2.02) and miscarriage rates (6.2% vs. 8.5%, aOR1.34, 95% CI 0.52-3.43). To conclude, PGT-A tested embryos did not improve LBR and miscarriage rates in a good prognosis IVF population across all age groups.Abbreviations: PGT-A: preimplantation genetic testing for aneuploidy; FET: frozen embryo transfer; LBR: live birth rate; OHSS: ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome; SART: society for assisted reproductive technology.
