Various assisted reproductive techniques have been developed and refined to obtain a large number of offspring from genetically superior animals or obtain offspring from infertile (or subfertile) animals. The embryo transfer is one assisted reproductive technique developed well, aimed at increased productivity of selected females, disease control, importation and exportation of livestock, rapid...

BACKGROUND We aimed to examine the efficacy of using an embryo transfer medium enriched with hyaluronan (HA) to improve implantation in a selected group of patients aged <43 years with repeated (>4) implantation failures after IVF-embryo transfer. METHODS About 101 patients, meeting our selection criteria, were randomly allocated to undergo embryo transfer either using our routine embryo tran...

The main factors affecting pregnancy and implantation rates are uterine receptivity, embryo quality, and transfer efficiency. Embryo transfer (ET) is the last step of critically important procedure of in vitro fertilization (IVF) and probably the least successful step in Assisted Reproductive Technology (ART) treatment cascade; though simple in most of the cases, it may pose to be the most diff...

BACKGROUND Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) patients are at increased risk of pregnancy complications, which may impair pregnancy outcome. Transfer of fresh embryos after superovulation may lead to abnormal implantation and placentation and further increase risk for pregnancy loss and complications. Some preliminary data suggest that elective embryo cryopreservation followed by frozen-thawed em...

Implantation support medium transfer (ISME-T) is referred as cultivation and transfer of embryos using advanced enriched medium that all nutrients and energy sources needed for an optimal embryo development. They may serve as cultivation as well as transferring medium. Enriched cultivation medium reduces the embryo stress through in vitro fertilization (IVF) process by providing a more physiolo...

BACKGROUND The purpose of the study was to compare clinical pregnancy and delivery rates with fresh and frozen embryo transfer in patients admitted to Shiraz- Human Assisted Reproductive Center with ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS). METHODS OHSS patients randomly divided in two groups, group A (n=50) with fresh embryo transfer and group B (n=50) with frozen embryo transfer. We used vi...

At present, embryo transfer can be performed successfully in most of the mammalian species. There is a high degree of similarity concerning the reproductive functions in these species. In all species there are strong scientific and also practical reasons for the applications of embryo transfer and the associated techniques which will gain more importance in the future.

The aim of the study was to evaluate if the elective single embryo transfer (eSET) strategy could maintain the delivery rates, with at least one live born child, and at the same time decrease the rate of multiple births. A costeffectiveness analysis was also performed between the elective single embryo transfer (SET) (1+1) and double embryo transfer (DET)(2+0) strategies. Another aim was to inv...

Thanks to assisted reproduction technology (ART) most couples with infertility can be helped today. Since the beginning of ART, however, two major problems have existed. In the first years of IVF more than one embryo was transferred in order to reach acceptable pregnancy rates, but this entails a risk of multiple pregnancy with all its morbidity and mortality due to premature birth. Also, studi...
