Effects of maternal and paternal alcohol consumption on the success rates of in vitro fertilization and gamete intrafallopian transfer
Open accessAbstract
Objective To determine whether the amount and timing of female and male alcohol use during IVF and GIFT affect reproductive endpoints.Design Multicenter prospective study.Setting Clinics in southern California.Patient(s) Two hundred twenty-one couples with female infertility.Intervention(s) None.Main outcome measure(s) Egg retrieval, transfer, fertilization, pregnancy, miscarriage, live birth, and multiple gestations.Result(s) Female alcohol consumption was associated with: (1) a 13% decrease in the number of eggs aspirated (adjusted 95% confidence interval [CI]: -2% to -23%, for one additional drink per day, 1 year before the IVF or GIFT attempt); (2) an increase in risk of not achieving pregnancy by 2.86 times (0.99-8.24, 1 month prior); and (3) an increase in risk of miscarriage by 2.21 times (1.09-4.49, 1 week before the procedure). For men, one additional drink per day increased the risk of not achieving a live birth by 2.28 (1.08-4.80) to 8.32 (1.82-37.97) times, depending on the time period; beer also affected live births (ORs = 5.49-45.64). This outcome may be due partially to increased risk of miscarriage by 2.70 to 38.04 times for men who drank <or=1 month before and during IVF and GIFT.Conclusion(s) This is the first study to report an association between alcohol use and reproductive endpoints of IVF and GIFT. Because alcohol use is ubiquitous, modifying drinking habits may increase assisted reproductive technology success rates.

“Consuming high levels of alcohol (> 2 drinks per day, with 1 drink > 10 g of ethanol) can affect both female and male fertility and the success of fertility treatment (Hakim 1998, Klonoff-Cohen 2003, Rossi 2011).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
