ABSTRACT: Purpose
To determine age-adjusted overall success rates for patients undergoing clomiphene citrate only minimal stimulation cycle (mini) in vitro fertilization (IVF) without any gonadotropin administration.Methods
Eight hundred thirty-nine women (mean age: 38.4?±?0.1 years; 2488 cycles) underwent clomiphene citrate only mini-IVF. Their first oocyte retrieval was between January 2009 and December 2009, with follow-up until December 2014. The cumulative live birth rate (CLBR) per oocyte retrieval cycle started and live birth rate per oocyte was retrospectively analyzed. The basic CLBR was calculated as the number of women who achieved a live birth divided by the total number of women who started oocyte retrieval.Results
The mean number of oocytes retrieved was 1.5. The basic CLBRs for all ages after the first and third cycles were 22.6% and 39.2%, respectively. For ??34 years, 35-37 years, 38-40 years, 41-42 years, and ??43 years, CLBRs after the first and third cycles were 42.5% and 70.1%, 32.9% and 49.1%, 20.0% and 38.6%, 12.6% and 25.2%, and 4.4% and 8.8%, respectively. These rates had a significant relationship with age (P?ConclusionAcceptable overall IVF success rates can be achieved in clomiphene citrate only mini-IVF, as well as acceptable LBR. The CLBRs and LBRs per oocyte are evidently influenced by women's age.
