Since that time, this process has been used to diagnose unknown abdominal problems in order to follow the course of a known disease and to modify or give appropriate therapy [1] . Past research advocates that outcomes even in singleton pregnancies, may be worse for women with assisted-conceptions when compared to their spontaneously conceived counterparts, small-forgestational age, low birth weight, including greater risks for preterm birth, caesarean delivery, and perinatal mortality [2][3][4] .…”
