Abstract: Objective To investigate the female effects of age on the outcome of preimplantation genetic diagnosis and screening(PGD/PGS). Methods Clinical data of 149 patients who received PGD/PGS in our hospital during Jan. and Dec. 2015 were retrospectively reviewed. The patients were divided into 3 groups according to age: group Ⅰ(n=10, <25 years, 36 blastocysts), group Ⅱ(n=94, 25-34 years, 329 blastocysts), and group Ⅲ(n=45, ≥35 years, 89 blastocysts). The normal chromosome rate and clinical pregnancy rate of the three groups were compared. Results The normal chromosome rate in groups Ⅰ, Ⅱ and Ⅲ was 50.00%, 50.15% and 29.21%, respectively. There were statistical differences between groups Ⅰ and Ⅲ(χ=24.855, P<0.05), and groups Ⅱ and Ⅲ(χ=212.376, P<0.05). The clinical pregnancy rate in groups Ⅰ, Ⅱ and Ⅲ was 82.33%, 82.50% and 40.00%, respectively. There were statistical differences between groups Ⅰ and Ⅲ(χ=23.893, P<0.05), and groups Ⅱ and Ⅲ(χ=27.510, P<0.05). Conclusion The female age can affect the outcome of PGD/PGS. Age ≥35 years will significantly reduces the normal chromosome rate and clinical pregnancy rate.
