OBJECTIVES: Limited studies on the benefits of blastocyst transfer in advanced maternal age (AMA) (≥40 years) have been reported. Our objective was to find whether blastocyst-stage embryo transfer improves pregnancy and live birth rates in women ≥40 years who have 3 or more good-quality cleavage-stage embryos.
METHODS: All fresh in vitro fertilization-intracytoplasmic sperm injection cycles performed from January 2020 to December 2021 in AMA women that progressed to transfer were considered for analysis. We compared fresh and cumulative ongoing pregnancy rates in AMA women of those who had a cleavage-stage transfer, while meeting the criteria for extended culture (≥3 high-quality embryos, group 1), and those who underwent blastocyst transfer (group 2). Demographic parameters, stimulation, embryology, fresh and cumulative ongoing pregnancy rates, and clinical miscarriage rates were compared.
RESULTS: During the study period, 255 cycles were analyzed including group 1 (n = 99) and group 2 (n = 156). Group 1 participants were older and had a greater number of embryos for transfer. Fresh and cumulative ongoing pregnancy rates per transfer were higher in group 2 compared to group 1 (23.4% vs. 13.1%, P = 0.04; 25.5% vs. 14.1%, P = 0.03), while overall miscarriage rates were higher in group 1 than group 2 (51.7% vs. 25%, P = 0.01).
CONCLUSIONS: Blastocyst culture provides a benefit to AMA women who have at least 3 good-quality embryos on day 3 resulting in significantly higher fresh and cumulative ongoing pregnancy rates and lower miscarriage compared to cleavage-stage transfers.
