The investigators conduct a long-term follow-up at five years on offspring born from our randomized controlled trial (RCT) to investigate whether or not there is any difference in developmental outcomes in children born after capacitation IVM (CAPA IVM) compared with conventional IVF in order to give strong evidence about the safety of IVM in women with high antral follicle count.
The safety of the CAPA-IVM has also been proven by publications about the development of children born from this technique. Data monitoring the physical, mental, and motor development of children born from the CAPA-IVM versus children born from the conventional IVF after 2 years under using the ASQ-3 tools and red flags showed that there were no significant differences in ASQ-3 scores at 6, 12 and 24 months between children born after IVM or IVF. The proportion of children with developmental red flags was low and did not differ between the two groups. Slightly, but significantly, lower ASQ-3 problem-solving and personal-social scores in twins from the IVM versus IVF group at 6 months were still within the normal range and had caught up to the IVF group in the 12- and 24-month assessments. However, another question raised is whether there is a difference in the development of children born from CAPA-IVM compared to conventional IVF after a longer follow-up period. Does the development between the two groups have a clinically significant difference? Based on these questions, we decided to conduct an assessment of the physical, behavioural, mental, and motor development of children born from CAPA-IVM and conventional IVF up to 5 years after birth.

Ages \& Stages Questionnaires®, Third Edition (ASQ®-3) is a developmental screening tool designed for use by early educators and health care professionals. It relies on parents as experts, is easy to use, family-friendly and creates the snapshot needed to catch delays and celebrate milestones. The ASQ-3 covers five developmental domains: communication, gross motor, fine motor, problem-solving and personal-social behaviour. The Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire (SDQ) is a brief behavioural screening questionnaire for 2-17-year-olds. It exists in several versions to meet the needs of researchers, clinicians and educationalists. The SDQ asks about 25 attributes, some positive and others negative. These 25 items are divided between 5 scales: emotional symptoms, conduct problems; hyperactivity/inattention, peer relationship problems, and prosocial behaviour

Normal ASQ-3 score rate.
A normal ASQ-3 score is the child's total score for each area above the cutoff. ASQ-3 (Ages and Stages Questionaires®) has 5 aspects: Communication, Gross motor, Fine motor, Problem solving, and Personal-Social Each aspect has 6 questions, if the answer is Yes, score = 10, Sometimes = 5 and Not yet = 0. ASQ-3 score = total area scores.
Time frame: Up to 5 years after birth
Normal SDQ score rate.
Normal SDQ score is defined as the total score of each area out of the abnormal range for each one. Abnormal range for each area is described as below: 1. emotional symptoms: from 5 to 10 2. conduct problems: from 4 to 10 3. hyperactivity/inattention: from 7 to 10 4. peer relationship problems: from 4 to 10 5. prosocial behaviour: from 0 to 4 6. The total difficulties score: from 17 to 40
Time frame: Up to 5 years after birth
Normal weight rate
Normal weight is a BMI greater than or equal to -2 standard deviations and less than or equal to 1 standard deviation of the WHO growth reference median.
Time frame: Up to 5 years after birth
Thinness rate
Thinness is a BMI less than -2 standard deviations below the WHO growth reference median.
Time frame: Up to 5 years after birth
Overweight rate
Overweight is a BMI greater than 1 standard deviations above the WHO growth reference median.
Time frame: Up to 5 years after birth
Obesity rate
Obesity is a weight greater than 2 standard deviations above the WHO growth reference median.
Time frame: Up to 5 years after birth
