🎉 New research out with @fertdem.bsky.social and @vegardskirbekk.bsky.social ! 💡 Time to ART birth decreased since the 2000s, and is shorter for those in their late 30s — likely reflecting improved treatment efficiency and faster access to care. 👉 pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/41152834/

Time to birth for spontaneous and ART births among infertile groups - PubMed

While assisted reproductive technologies enable individuals facing infertility issues to achieve a live birth, they require more time to succeed. However, since the 2000s, time to ART births has decreased, with the shortest observed among those initiating conception attempts in their late thirties. …

This presentation focuses on the health inequalities: ❤️‍🩹 what value do caregivers place on a miscarriage? 💊 what kind of care is offered? 🫂 what support is available outside the medical community? 💼 how is the impact on professional life managed? 2/2 #AFSToulouse2025

In addition, @heinivaisanen.bsky.social presented a poster 'Social inequalities in (recurrent) miscarriage risk among Finnish mothers' with preliminary results finding discrepancies in #miscarriage risk in Finland by income, but less so by education or migrant status using administrative data 3/3

Yesterday, @mccompans.bsky.social presented on 'Miscarriage prevalence and factors: a multi-source approach in France', discussing the +/- of using surveys, administrative, and qualitative data to study #miscarriage. Triangulation is key and the right data source depends on research questions 2/3
