Effect of pregnancy planning and fertility treatment on cognitive outcomes in children at ages 3 and 5: Longitudinal cohort study by Carson, C, Kelly, Y, Kurinczuk, J, Sacker, A, Redshaw, M, Quigley, M

“…The population was divided into "unplanned" (unplanned and unhappy), "mistimed" (unplanned but happy), "planned" (planned, time to conception &lt;12 months), "subfertile"(planned, time to conception ≥12 months), "induced ovulation" (received clomiphene citrate), and "assisted reproduction" (in vitro fertilisation or intracytoplasmic sperm injection). The "planned" group was the comparison group in all analyses. …”
