STUDY QUESTION: Does exposure to particulate matter (PM) air pollution prior to oocyte retrieval or subsequent frozen embryo transfer (FET) affect the odds of live birth? SUMMARY ANSWER: Live birth rates are lower when particulate matter (PM2.5 and PM10) levels are higher prior to oocyte retrieval, regardless of the conditions at the time of embryo transfer. WHAT IS KNOWN ALREADY: Exposure to air pollution is...
