Live birth rates are satisfactory following multiple IVF treatment cycles in poor prognosis patients

This seven-year retrospective study analysed the live birth rate (LBR) for women undergoing IVF treatment with various antral follicle counts (AFC). The LBR decreased with lower AFC ratings, and in 290 treatment cycles for women in the poorest AFC category, �4 follicles (group E), the LBR was the...
