  Objective: The objective of this study was to evaluate ongoing clinical pregnancy rates after elective single embryo transfer (eSET) versus non-elective single embryo transfer (non-elective SET) and compare them to ongoing pregnancy rates after double embryo transfer (DET) in IVF cycles with preimplantation genetic screening (PGS). Design: A retrospective study of SNP PGS outcome data from blastocysts biopsied on day 5 or day 6 was conducted to identify differences in ongoing clinical pregnancy rates between study groups. Settings: Large private IVF practice. Materials and methods: 676 cycles of IVF treatment (591 patients) with PGS between January 2013 and July 2016 followed by 658 FETs were included in the study (569 SETs and 89 double embryo transfers). 4102 embryos were vitrified after the trophectoderm biopsy, and selected embryos were subsequently thawed for a hormone replacemen..
