Objective To determine if women who were randomized to a mind/body program before starting their first IVF cycle would have higher pregnancy rates than control subjects. Design Randomized, controlled, prospective study. Setting Private academically affiliated infertility center. Patient(s) A total of 143 women aged =40 years who were about to begin their first IVF cycle. Intervention(s) Subjects were randomized to a ten-session mind/body program (MB) or a control group and followed for two IVF cycles. Main Outcome Measure(s) Clinical pregnancy rate. Result(s) Only 9% of the MB participants had attended at least one-half of their sessions at cycle 1 start. Pregnancy rates for cycle 1 were 43% for all subjects; 76% of the MB subjects had attended at least one-half of their sessions at cycle 2 start. Pregnancy rates for cycle 2 were 52% for MB and 20% for control. Conclusion(s) MB participation was associated with increased pregnancy rates for cycle 2, prior to which most subjects had attended at least half of their sessions.
