The investigators will examine the hypothesis that women who are given their personalized IVF-prognosis are less likely to overestimate their IVF-live birth rate, as compared to women who do not receive a personalized IVF-prognosis.
Control group: At the time of their fresh embryo transfer couples will receive a document with a photo of their transferred embryo(s) and the number of cryopreserved embryos.
Intervention group: At the time of their fresh embryo transfer couples will receive a document with the following feedback: a photo of their transferred embryo, the number of cryopreserved embryos, the quality rating of the transferred embryo's, and couple's personalized IVF-prognosis (i.e. their chance on a live birth from the current IVF-cycle, including the transfer of fresh and if available cryopreserved embryos, calculated by entering eight background characteristics and five IVF-laboratory results into a prognostic model).
Primary outcome:
The proportion of women expecting their IVF-live birth rate to be double their calculated IVF-prognosis, directly after their fresh embryo transfer.
Secondary outcomes:
The proportion of men expecting their IVF-live birth rate to be double their calculated IVF-prognosis, directly after their fresh embryo transfer.
Women's and men's anxiety will be assessed with the reliable 'State-Anxiety Inventory, (STAI-state)' questionnaire, disseminated in coded paper-pencil format on the day of the fresh embryo transfer.
Patient's infertility-specific distress will be assessed with the reliable 'Infertility Distress Scale (IDS)' questionnaire, within two days of the conclusive pregnancy test after the transfer of the last (fresh or cryopreserved) embryo of the studied IVF-cycle.

| Women's and men's anxiety | Women's and men's anxiety will be assessed with the reliable STAI-state questionnaire, disseminated in coded paper-pencil format on the day of the fresh embryo transfer. | Anxious feelings immediately after the fresh embryo transfer are assessed with the coded paper-pencil State Trait Anxiety Inventory, state module (STAI-state; 20-80, the higher, the more anxious) |
| Women's and men's infertility-specific distress | Women's and men's infertility-specific distress will be assessed with the reliable 'Infertility Distress Scale (IDS)' questionnaire, disseminated via text message and online | Infertility specific distress within 2 days of the conclusive pregnancy test after the the last embryotransfer (fresh or cryo) assessed with the Infertility Distress Scale (IDS; 8-40; the higher the more infertility specific distress) |
Number of untreated cycles prior to the start of a new fresh IVF-cycle after the last negative pregnancy test of the observed IVF-cycle
| Within 12-months after the oocyte aspiration of the observed IVF-cycle |
| IVF-discontinuation | Whether or not a subsequent IVF-cycle was started within twelve months after the last negative pregnancy test of the observed IVF-cycle and while no medical censoring to discontinue | Within 12-months after the oocyte aspiration of the observed IVF-cycle |
