Comparative analysis of monocyesis and multiple gestation course after in vitro fertilization and embriotransfer

Abstract

The data of comparative clinical and statistical analysis of gestation process and pregnancy outcome after IVF & ET in the observation period from 2008 through 2012 have been presented. For a set of initial parameters (age structure; cases, duration and infertility factors, the choice of controlled ovarian stimulation protocol) the studied groups did not differ. It has been concluded, that multiple gestation has a aggravating impact on pregnancies achieved in the result of IVF & ET, which was manifested in statistically more frequent, in comparison to monocyesis, cases of late miscarriage threat, intrauterine growth retardation of fetus (fetuses), preterm labour, adverse perinatal outcomes instances, which has been supported by the corresponding findings of the research in both monocyesis and multiple pregnancy groups. A substantial role in aggravating impact on pregnancy also refers to anemia, which statistically more frequently develops in women with a multiple gestation in comparison to those with monocyesis.
