Table 2 Characteristics of cycles. Cycles were divided by age group, cycle status, cycle number, insemination type, stimulation type, infertility cause, ET day and number of embryos transferred. The number of cycles in each group was noted

From: Maximum basal FSH predicts reproductive outcome better than cycle-specific basal FSH levels: waiting for a “better" month conveys limited retrieval benefits
