Is there an increased risk of birth defects with IVF?

Most IVF pregnancies and children do well, but pregnancy and newborn outcomes are influenced by parental age, infertility diagnosis, singleton versus multiple pregnancy, and whether ICSI, PGT, or donor treatment is involved. Risk discussions are most useful when they separate baseline age-related risk from treatment-related risk and focus on steps that reduce avoidable complications, such as single-embryo transfer and good prenatal care.
