Description
Arshiya Firdaus and coauthors report a 2026 prospective study of follicular output rate as a predictor for in vitro fertilization. The rate compares follicles ready at trigger day with the starting follicle count, capturing how well ovaries responded in that specific cycle. The study enrolled 166 patients treated between October 2023 and January 2025, analyzed separately by polycystic ovary status.
Among 136 patients without polycystic ovary syndrome, higher output rate groups produced more eggs, more mature eggs, and more good-quality embryos. Pregnancy rates rose across the low, medium, and high groups, from about 15 percent to about 37 percent, and live birth rates differed as well. The rate stayed linked to pregnancy after adjustment, though its standalone discrimination was modest. The authors suggest using it alongside hormone and follicle counts for counseling.
