Previous studies have demonstrated an association between severely elevated peak serum estradiol levels and the incidence of low birth weight (LBW) among infants conceived with in vitro fertilization (IVF).1, 2 Peak estradiol cut-points in the existing literature have been chosen arbitrarily. The primary objective of the present study was to examine the association between peak estradiol and neonatal birth weight following IVF. The secondary objective was to estimate an optimal peak estradiol cut-point for prediction of low birth weight (LBW).

Reproductive medicine is not immune to race-based health disparities. In fact, some of the most glaring inequities have been observed in women’s health. Reproductive endocrinology and infertility specialists work to help all patients create families. However, during that process, we cannot divorce the experience of Black women in our office from their experience in the world at large. Despite non-Hispanic Black women having higher infertility rates than non-Hispanic white women, Black women utilize infertility services at a rate half that of white women. Although cost and insurance coverage are often focal points in the conversation about pervasive disparities, we as providers must understand that there are additional factors that influence differences in healthcare outcomes. For example, Black women have lower clinical pregnancy and live birth rates compared with white women after undergoing the most potent treatment for infertility, in vitro fertilization, even after controlling for various factors. This manuscript delves into how systemic racism and unconscious biases contribute to these persistent disparities. Additionally, this piece provides tangible solutions to narrow current disparities that exist. We are calling on all providers to enact sustainable and tangible change for the betterment of our patients, particularly Black women.
