BACKGROUND Embryo transfer is a critical factor affecting the success of IVF-the ease of embryo transfer has a direct impact on the success rate. The aim of this study was to assess the value of cervical dilatation with hygroscopic cervical rods (Dilapan-S) in patients with difficult embryo transfer. METHODS Fifty-four patients undergoing IVF treatment, who either failed to conceive after pre...

BACKGROUND The main reason for adverse treatment outcome in assisted reproduction is the high rate of multiple pregnancies. The only strategy to avoid dizygotic twins is to transfer one embryo at a time. METHODS A total of 144 women, who had had at least four good quality embryos available after IVF/intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) and who had no more than one previous failed treatment...

background: the use of assisted reproductive technology (art) is increasing in the world. the rate, efficacy and safety of art are very different among countries. there is an increase in the use of intra cytoplasmic sperm injection (icsi), single fresh embryo transfer (et) and frozen-thawed embryo transfer (fet). objective: the objective of this study was to compare pregnancy rate in fresh et a...

STUDY QUESTION Does uterine peristalsis influence the chance of clinical pregnancy in an embryo transfer cycle? SUMMARY ANSWER The uterine peristaltic wave frequency before embryo transfer is inversely related to the clinical pregnancy rates in fresh and frozen-thawed embryo transfer cycles. WHAT IS KNOWN ALREADY Uterine peristalsis participates in regulating fluid migration after mock embr...

background: recurrent implantation failure is one of the most issues in ivf cycles.some researchers found that beneficial effects of endometrial scratching in womenwith recurrent implantation failure, while some authors demonstrated contrary resultsobjective: the present study aimed to investigate the effect of intrauterine. salineinfusion as a form of endometrial injury, during fresh in vitro ...

BACKGROUND Transfer of several embryos after IVF results in a high multiple birth rate associated with increased morbidity and high costs for the neonatal care. In a previous randomized trial we demonstrated that a single embryo transfer (SET) strategy, including one fresh single embryo transfer and, if no live birth, one additional frozen-thawed SET, resulted in a live-birth rate that was not ...

Objective Women undergoing IVF cycles should go successfully through multiple points during the procedure (i.e., implantation, clinical pregnancy, no spontaneous abortion and delivery) to achieve live births. On the other there is a need to consider previous reproductive outcomes and as well as the current cycle. In this study, data on multiple cycles and multiple points during the IVF cycle ar...
