Missmer. 2011. “Does a Woman’s Educational Attainment Influence in Vitro Fertilization Outcomes?” Fertility and Sterility 95 (8) (June): 2618–2620. doi:10.1016/j.fertnstert.2011.05.015.0015-0282http://nrs.harvard.edu/urn-3:HUL.InstRepos:27336530The association between educational level and cycle outcomes was quantified by applying multivariable logistic and linear regression within a prospective cohort of 2,569 women commencing their first in vitro fertilization (IVF) cycle. Although a woman’s educational attainment was not associated with the likelihood of implantation failure, chemical pregnancy, spontaneous abortion, or live birth, the odds of cycle cancellation before egg retrieval were 40% lower among those with an college degree and 48% lower among those with graduate school attendance compared with women who had no college degree, suggesting that educational attainment is inversely associated with the likelihood of cycle cancellation.en-USARTeducationIVF outcomesmaternalJournal Article2016-06-1710.1016/j.fertnstert.2011.05.015
