Do children conceived using in vitro fertilization have poorer elementary school outcomes than children conceived spontaneously?
Although there are numerous studies of adverse pregnancy outcomes and infant mortality comparing pregnancies conceived with various assisted reproductive technology (ART) modalities with pregnancies conceived spontaneously (1), comparatively few researchers have examined longer-term health outcomes (2–4). Even fewer studies have looked more broadly at education and development; thus, the study by Luke et al. (5) begins to fill a gap in our knowledge base.
