Clinical Pregnancy After Assisted Hatching Rate in Young women undergoing Intra Cytoplasmic Sperm Injection
نویسنده
چکیده
Problem statement: The ability of a blast cyst to hatch, or escape, from the Zona Pellucida (ZP) that surrounds and protects the embryo during its first few days of development is one of many critical events that must occur for successful reproduction. Implantation of the embryo in the uterine lining is impossible unless hatching occurs. Hard or thick ZP will therefore impaire the implantation process and reduce the pregnancy rate. Approach: Retrospective analysis of patients' records who had ICSI cycles comparing pregnancy rate for women with and without assisted hatching between Jan and Dec 2010, this was to evaluate the overall effect of AH on pregnancy rates in younger women (less than 37 years old) undergoing ICSI cycles at Mustasharak medical center, ABHA, Saudi Arabia. The studied population was divided into four different subgroups according to age and the differences in clinical pregnancy rate among the assisted hatching group and control group were calculated. Results: Clinical pregnancy rate was found to be significantly higher statistically in young women who underwent laser assisted hatching after ICSI. Conclusion: Laser assisted hatching has a positive impact on the clinical pregnancy rate following ICSI in young age group.

The Effect of Intercourse around Embryo Transfer on Pregnancy Rate in Assisted Reproductive Technology Cycles
Background Implantation failure is the most important cause of recurrent in vitro fertilization/intra cytoplasmic sperm injection (IVF/ICSI) failure. Several reports suggest that intercourse during the peritransfer period might improve pregnancy rates. This study is designed to determine whether intercourse during the peritransfer period will improve pregnancy and implantation rates in patients...

BACKGROUND Gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonists or antagonists are used in assisted reproductive technique cycles as premature luteinizing hormone secretion inhibition. Studies have been reported different and contradictory results on the serum progesterone effect on intra-cytoplasmic sperm injection. OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of serum progesterone leve...
