Participants were divided into two groups: the IVF/ICSI-ET group (204 cases) and the spontaneous conception (SC) group (1558 cases). After 1:2 propensity score matching (PSM), the two groups were compared for maternal and neonatal outcomes. The SC group (1558 cases) was further divided by age into the < 43 years group (1195 cases) and the ≥ 43 years group (363 cases) for subgroup analysis.Results: Adverse maternal and neonatal outcomes were comparable between the IVF/ICSI-ET group and the SC group, with a higher cesarean section rate (78% vs 67.5%, P =0.013), an increased maternal ICU admissions rate (5.5% vs 1.3%, P =0.008), and a lower birth defects rate (1.1% vs 4.6%, P =0.037) in the IVF/ICSI-ET group. Subgroup analysis showed that women aged ≥ 43 years had higher incidences of gestational diabetes, gestational hypertension, cesarean section, and neonatal asphyxia compared to women aged < 43 years.Conclusion: This study indicated IVF/ICSI-ET is relatively safe for women ≥ 40 years with singleton pregnancies. However, advanced maternal age deteriorated maternal and neonatal outcomes, and IVF/ICSI-ET further heightened the risk of cesarean section and maternal ICU admissions. Therefore, enhanced care and vigilance are crucial for women over 40 undergoing IVF/ICSI-ET.Keywords: in-vitro fertilization, intracytoplasmic sperm injection, advanced maternal age, maternal outcomes, neonatal outcomes
