Zusammenfassung:•Women with high normal FMR1 allele have a higher risk of reduced live birth rates.•Enhanced screening for fragile X syndrome in women of childbearing age in China.•Association between the FMR1 genotype and fertility merits further research. Substantial evidence now suggests an association between the FMR1 genotype and female fertility. The aim of this study was to determine whether a high normal FMR1 allele (35–54 repeats) affects in vitro fertilization (IVF) outcomes in Chinese women. A total of 120 women with 210 IVF cycles were retrospectively recruited in this study. The patients were divided into two groups based on the FMR1 repeat lengths at allele 2 (normal repeat group:
