Ovulation induction and subfertile untreated conception groups offer improved options for interpreting risks associated with ART

Our secondary objective was to examine whether known risks of pregnancy complications and adverse birth outcomes in ART births are elevated in comparison with subfertile (untreated and OI) conception groups.
