The patients were randomly divided into training (<jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic> = 265) and validation (<jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic> = 159) samples for the building and testing of the nomogram, respectively.

The MLR showed that the probability of live birth was significantly correlated with age [odds ratio (OR), 3.465; 95% confidence interval (CI), 1.215\u20139.885, <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic> = 0.020], uterine volume (OR, 8.141; 95% CI, 2.170\u201310.542; <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic> = 0.002), blastocyst transfer (OR, 3.231; 95% CI, 1.065\u20138.819, <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic> = 0.023), twin pregnancy (OR, 0.328; 95% CI, 0.104\u20130.344, <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic> = 0.005), and protocol in FET (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic> &amp;lt; 0.001). The statistical nomogram was built based on age, uterine volume, twin pregnancy, stage of the transferred embryo, and protocol of FET, with an area under the curve (AUC) of 0.837 (95% CI: 0.741\u20130.910) for the training cohort. The AUC for the validation cohort was 0.737 (95% CI: 0.661\u20130.813), presenting a well-pleasing goodness-of-fit and stability in this
