Abstract
OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to clarify the usefulness of blastocyst scores and female age as embryo competence markers for embryo transfer in in vitro fertilization (IVF) cycles. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A total of 352 IVF cycles were investigated. The relevance of blastocyst scores and female age to pregnancy outcome was assessed by logistic regression analysis. RESULTS: We revealed that, for patients aged 38 years. For older patients, female age is a better indicator to determine the number of transferred blastocysts.
