assessment of embryo quality in order to choose the embryos that most likely result in pregnancy is the critical goal in assisted reproductive technologies (art). the current trend in human in vitro fertilization/embryo transfer (ivf/et) protocols is to decrease the rate of multiple pregnancies after multiple embryo transfer with maintaining the pregnancy rate at admissible levels (according to...

background: reviewing the literature reveals that pentoxifylline (ptx) plus tocopherol (vitamin e) are used mainly to promote sperm quality. however trials focusing on the effects of these drugs in female partner are limited. combination of pentoxifylline and vitamin e appeared to improve the pregnancy rate in patients with a thin endometrium by increasing the endometrial thickness and improvin...

the purpose of the study is to show in which trimester of pregnancy is fatigue more common among working women, and whether or not there is any relationship between fatigue rate and educational level, income, etc. this is a longitudinal study. from the total number of patients who came to zeinab university hospital, 100 completed a demographics 50 item questionnaire and the numerical rating sca...

Background & aim: In addition to the benefits of frozen embryo transfer (FET), the key question is whether freezing or melting embryos can cause fetal harm and prenatal complications. This study aimed to assess pregnancy and neonatal outcomes after FET and fresh embryo transfer (ET). Methods: This retrospective ...

objective: the aim of this study is to examine the effect of the embryo transfer (et) day on clinical pregnancy success rates in in vitro fertilization-et (ivf-et) cycles. materials and methods: in this retrospective study, we divided patients with infertility who underwent ivf-et with fresh embryos into two groups depending on whether the et was performed on weekdays or weekends. the main outc...

INTRODUCTION Interstitial pregnancy is a rare and life-threatening condition. Diagnosis and appropriate management are critical in preventing morbidity and death. CASE DESCRIPTION Four cases of interstitial pregnancy are presented. Diagnostic laparoscopy followed by laparotomy and cornuostomy with removal of products of conception was performed in 1 case. Laparoscopic cornuostomy and removal ...

background: coasting is the most common method used in the prevention of ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (ohss) acting through vascular endothelial growth factor (vegf) reduction. however, the pregnancy rate is reported to fall with coasting when it takes more than three days. recently lowdose cabergoline, a selective d2 dopamine receptor agonist has been proven to selectively reduce vascular...

objective: the measurement of follicular output rate (fort) has been proposed as a good indicator for evaluating follicular response to the exogenous recombinant folliclestimulating hormone (rfsh). this places fort as a promising qualitative marker for ovarian function. the objective of the study was to determine fort as a predictor of oocyte competence, embryo quality and clinical pregnancy af...
