Figure 1 Scatterplots with linear regression comparing numbers of oocytes retrieved (A, R2 = .42, P<.0001), percentages of oocytes fertilized (B, R2 = .12, P=.019), blastocyst formation rates per 2pn embryo (C, R2 = .05, P=.28), and total numbers of blastocysts produced (D, R2 = .22, P=.020) between first and second cycles.
