Assisted reproductive technology (ART) has advanced, leading to more live births. Clinic guidelines now limit embryo transfers, reducing multiple pregnancies and improving success rates.

Area of Science:

  • Reproductive Medicine
  • Obstetrics and Gynecology

Background:

  • Assisted reproductive technology (ART) has seen significant advancements since 1978.
  • Increased ART use and multiple embryo transfers led to a rise in multiple gestations.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review trends in ART, focusing on embryo transfer practices and multiple gestation rates.
  • To assess the impact of clinical guidelines on ART outcomes.

Main Methods:

  • Analysis of ART cycle data, including embryo transfer numbers and gestation outcomes.
  • Examination of trends in live birth rates and multiple births per cycle over time.

Main Results:

  • A decrease in the average number of embryos transferred per ART cycle since 1997.

  • A concurrent reduction in the incidence of three or more fetuses per gestation.
  • A steady increase in the live birth rate per ART cycle.

    • Conclusions:

    • Clinical guidelines effectively reduced multiple embryo transfers.
    • These changes have improved ART success rates while lowering risks associated with multiple births.
