| Abstract This study evaluates the effectiveness of single embryo transfer (SET) versus double embryo transfer (DET) in in vitro fertilization (IVF) and intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) cycles at AL Amal IVF Center, Misrata. Objective To compare live birth rates (LBR) and pregnancy outcomes between the two methods. Methods: A retrospective analysis of 1,000 women undergoing IVF/ICSI was conducted. Results Indicate that SET had a higher LBR (76.1%) compared to DET (65.2%), with a 10.9% increase in success rates. Additionally, SET was associated with fewer complications, including lower risks of preterm labor (3.8% vs. 13.8%), intrauterine fetal death (0.5% vs. 2.2%), and congenital anomalies (0% vs. 1.2%).Statistical analysis revealed no significant relationship between pregnancy rates and age groups (p-value = 0.610), although older women had lower LBRs, particularly in the DET group. Cost-effectiveness analysis demonstrated that SET led to lower medical expenses due to reduced neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) admissions and maternal complications. Conclusion: The study supports the shift towards SET as the preferred approach, even for older women, when good-quality blastocysts are available. While SET minimizes the risks associated with multiple pregnancies, further research is needed to optimize cost-effectiveness strategies. The findings emphasize the benefits of SET in improving perinatal outcomes while maintaining high success rates, reinforcing its role as a superior IVF strategy. | ||||
