The clinical outcomes of different infertility causes (tubal factor, male factor, unexplained infertility, combination of tubal and male factors, and other/mixed factors) with natural-cycle in vitro fertilization/maturation (IVF/M) treatment were evaluated. There were no significant differences in the rates of IVM, IVF, and cleavage as well as the clinical pregnancy (30.4%-46.9%) and live birth rates among the five subgroups, which suggests that natural-cycle IVF/M is a suitable treatment for infertility of various causes with acceptable pregnancy and live birth rates.
