“…In addition, Fear of future regret" was identified as a motivating factor to undertake EFT by women in a number of studies. { Sandhu S et al (2023) (48) ; de Groot M et al, (2016) (63) ; Baldwin K& Culley L( 2020) (64) }From the researcher's point of view, this agreement between countless number of studies across the world that fear of high cost is the main barrier to EFT uses, might be due to the recent jump in the dollar exchange rate. Another obstacle to the demand for EFT could be specific to the student population in the present study that the subject of high cost is always a sensitive topic among them because they worry about future earning potential.…”

ImportancePoor ovarian response (POR) to stimulation may impact patients’ desire or need to utilize cryopreserved oocytes for family building in the future. These findings, captured by Society for Assisted Reproductive Technology (SART) national data, underscore the need for tailored counseling and further research into the decision-making processes influencing oocyte utilization.ObjectiveTo examine the association of ovarian response to stimulation and the number of vitrified oocytes with the likelihood and timing of patients returning for oocyte utilization following planned oocyte cryopreservation (OC).Design, Setting, and ParticipantsThis cohort study used data in the SART Clinical Outcome Reporting System for patients in US fertility clinics and data was used for eligible patients who underwent planned OC from January 2014 through December 2020. Data were analyzed from November 2022 to June 2023.Main outcomes and measuresThe association between number of oocytes cryopreserved on return rate to utilize cryopreserved oocytes and the time from vitrification to warming.ResultsA total of 67 893 autologous oocyte freezing cycles were performed in the US between 2014 and 2020, among 47 363 patients (mean [SD] age, 34.5 [4.7] years). Of these, 6421 (13.5%) were classified as patients with POR, with fewer than 5 oocytes vitrified across all ovarian stimulation cycles. A total of 1203 patients (2.5%) returned for oocyte warming and utilization. The rate of return was significantly higher in the POR group, with 260 (4.0%) returning compared with 943 (2.3%) in the normal responder group (P &lt; .001). This trend was most notable in the age 30 to 34 years (warm cycle, 46 of 275 [16.7%] vs no warm cycle, 982 of 11 743 [8.4%]; P &lt; .001) and age 35 to 39 years groups (warm cycle, 124 of 587 [21.1%] vs no warm cycle, 3433 of 23 012 [14.9%]; P &lt; .001). The time elapsed from vitrification to warming was comparable between patients with POR (mean [SD], 716.1 [156.1] days) and normal responders (803.8 [160.7] days). A multivariate analysis adjusted for age, clinic region in the US, body mass index, and history of endometriosis was conducted to identify factors associated with the utilization of oocytes. The analysis revealed that having fewer than 5 oocytes vitrified was associated with higher odds of utilizing oocytes (OR, 1.52; 95% CI, 1.32-1.76).Conclusions and RelevanceThis cohort study reveals a distinct pattern in the utilization of cryopreserved oocytes among patients undergoing planned OC in the US. Despite the increase in number of patients pursuing OC, there is a notably low rate of return to utilize previously vitrified oocytes; notably, patients with POR are more likely to return, although the time to return is similar to those with normal ovarian response.
