Comparison of in vitro fertilisation/intracytoplasmic sperm injection on live birth rates in couples with non-male factor infertility and advanced maternal age.

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

To determine if the use of ICSI in women of advanced maternal age with non-male factor infertility increases chances of live birth.

Methods

Retrospective data analysis of 10 years of cycle data from a single Australian IVF clinic (Repromed). First cycle patients only of an advanced maternal age (≥ 35 years) with non-male factor infertility utilising standard IVF or ICSI insemination and having at least three oocytes collected at egg pick up were assessed for live birth following transfer of single genetically unscreened blastocyst (N = 577). Subanalysis of clinical pregnancy, miscarriage, fertilisation, embryo utilisation rate and having a blastocyst for transfer were considered. Unadjusted, covariate adjusted and propensity score weighted analysis were performed.
