Patients were divided into the fresh embryo transfer group and frozen-thawed embryo transfer group according to whether fresh embryo transfer was performed. According to their conditions, patients were further classified into the ET-PCOS group (group A, n = 104), ET-non-PCOS group (group B, n = 212), FET-PCOS group (group C, n = 102), or FET-non-PCOS group (group D, n = 148); the general data, laboratory indicators and pregnancy outcomes of the patients were statistically analyzed, and the perinatal outcomes and related factors between the groups were compared and analyzed.<\/jats:p>\n<\/jats:sec>\n<jats:sec id=\"sec003\">\n<jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n<jats:p>The level of E<jats:sub>2<\/jats:sub> on the HCG test day in the ET group was lower than that in the FET group. The natural birth rate of group D was lower than that of group A and group B, and the cesarean section rate was higher than that of group A and group B; the clinical pregnancy rate of group A was higher than that of group B and group D, and the difference was statistically significant (P &lt; 0.05). There was no significant difference in the total abortion rate, early abortion rate or late abortion rate between the groups (P &gt; 0.05). There was no significant difference in gestational age, neonatal sex or neonatal weight between the groups (P &gt; 0.05). The incidence of placenta previa in Group B was significantly lower than that in Group D, and the difference was significant (P &lt; 0.05). The incidence of fetal distress in Group B was significantly lower than that in Groups C and D, and the incidence of neonatal jaundice in Group D was significantly higher than that in Groups A and B (P &lt; 0.05). In the multivariate analysis, the number of high-quality embryos was independent factors affecting clinical pregnancy, and the embryo transfer method was an independent factor affecting fetal distress and neonatal jaundice.<\/jats:p>\n<\/jats:sec>\n<jats:sec id=\"sec004\">\n<jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n<jats:p>Young PCOS patients without risk of OHSS have a high clinical pregnancy rate with fresh transplant cycles.
