Risk of neonatal adverse pregnancy outcome in twin pregnancies conceived via in-vitro fertilization
In twin pregnancies resulting from IVF treatment, both the prospective risk of stillbirth and the rate of stillbirth were higher compared to those in the SC group. Considering the associated risks of stillbirth and neonatal complications, delivery around 37 weeks may be associated with more favorable outcomes. However, this observation does not establish 37 weeks as the definitive optimal time for delivery. The findings suggest that further research is needed to explore the best delivery timing for IVF twin pregnancies and to guide clinical decision-making for optimizing pregnancy outcomes.
