A 2025 study introduces the FORTUNE model, developed from over 10,000 PGT-A cycles, that uses age, ovarian reserve, partner age, and BMI to predict how many euploid embryos a patient is likely to produce by grouping patients into five prognosis categories.
A 2025 case report describes a live birth in a 46-year-old woman using her own eggs through IVF, adding to a small number of published cases showing that pregnancy at this age, while uncommon, is still possible without add-ons or PGT-A.
A new study found that selecting FSH type based on a woman’s FSH receptor (FSHR) genotype may improve IVF pregnancy and live birth rates, particularly when using rFSH for NN genotypes and uFSH for NS or SS genotypes.
In a 2025 study, researchers estimated how many frozen eggs are needed, by age, to reliably yield three euploid blastocysts or achieve one, two or three live births, offering practical guidance for egg freezing patients.
A 2025 study compared cumulative live birth rates for patients transferring up to 15 untested embryos. Besides the CLBR based on single blastocyst transfers and age, they found differences based on ovarian response and blastocyst formation rates. They also suggested a new way to define recurrent implantation failure.
A 2024 study compared cumulative live birth rates for patients aged 40 to 48, finding that increasing age led to decreasing chances of birth.
A 2024 study compared IVF outcomes and pregnancy rates for patients of different ages (<32 to >40) who had their first single embryo transfer.
Researchers in 2023 provided evidence-based guidelines for deciding how many embryos to transfer, as prepared by ESHRE.
Researchers in a 2023 study combined the results of 74 studies to investigate what factors contribute to euploid live birth and miscarriage rates, identifying embryo quality, maternal age, specific diagnoses, repeat freeze/thaw, and other factors.
Researchers in a 2022 study performed a systematic review and meta-analysis on women with endometriosis undergoing IVF and found no change in live birth rates, but an increased risk of obstetric and perinatal outcomes, however patients were diagnosed without laparoscopy and didn’t account for treated patients.
