Objective: To examine the association between first-trimester bleeding and live-birth rates in twin pregnancies conceived with in vitro fertilization (IVF).Design: Retrospective cohort study.Setting: Academic infertility practice.Patient(s): Women with two gestational sacs on first- trimester ultrasound after transfer of fresh embryos derived from autologous oocytes between January 1, 1999, and December 31, 2010.Intervention(s): None.Main Outcome Measure(s): Live-birth rate.Result(s): Sixty-five women reported vaginal bleeding, and 288 did not. The baseline characteristics were similar between the two groups, except for an increased prevalence of subchorionic hematoma in women with first- trimester vaginal bleeding (26.2% vs. 1.7%). Live-birth rates were similar between women with bleeding and those with no bleeding (87.7% vs. 91.7%, adjusted odds ratio [OR] 0.73; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.31-1.73). Two hundred eighty-eight women gave birth to live twins. Among the women who delivered twins, those with first-trimester bleeding had an increased risk of low birth weight of at least one twin (75.0% vs. 59.7%). The association between bleeding and low birth weight persisted after controlling for possible confounders with logistic regression (adjusted OR 2.33, 95% CI, 1.14-4.74).Conclusion(s): Live-birth rates are high in IVF twin gestations, regardless of the presence of first-trimester bleeding. Among women giving birth to IVF twins, however, first- trimester bleeding is associated with increased odds of low birth weight. (C) 2016 by American Society for Reproductive Medicine.
