Effects of follicular output rate on cumulative clinical pregnancy rate and cumulative live birth rate in PCOS patients with different characteristics.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

We aim to explore the effects of follicular output rate (FORT) on cumulative clinical pregnancy rate (CCPR) and cumulative live birth rate (CLBR) in polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) patients with different characteristics undergoing in vitro fertilization (IVF) treatment.

Methods

This retrospective study analyzed 454 patients with PCOS undergoing their first IVF cycle at our center from January 2016 to December 2020. FORT was calculated as pre-ovulatory follicle count (PFC) × 100/antral follicle count (AFC). Multivariate regression analyses were conducted to explore the relationships between FORT and CCPR and CLBR. Curve fitting and threshold effect analyses were established to find nonlinear relationships. Effect modification in different subgroups were exa
