background: implantation is one of the essential steps for the success of assisted reproductive techniques (art). their success depends on three main factors: embryo quality, endometrial receptivity (er), and synchrony between embryo and endometrium. there are various factors that regulate the complex process of implantation. in this regard, one may refer to human chorionic gonadotropin (hcg) a...

OBJECTIVE Sperm must be properly prepared in in vitro fertilization (IVF)-embryo transfer (ET) programs in order to control the fertilization rate and ensure that embryos are of high quality and have appropriate developmental abilities. The objective of this study was to determine the most optimal sperm preparation method for IVF. METHODS Patients less than 40 years of age who participated in...

Multiple pregnancies and ovarian hyper stimulation syndrome (OHSS) are the most serious complications of ovarian stimulation and IVF. Indeed, they are more or less the only ones. OHSS can effectively be prevented in three stages: Before stimulation, during stimulation and at ET. Before stimulation patients should be assessed as to age, the ovarian follicular count and/or anti mullerian hormone ...

Background: In-vitro fertilization–embryo transfer (IVF-ET) has become progressively popular as a treatment for different type of infertility issues. Implantation the embryo is an essential step and depends on various factors that play pivotal role in influencing pregnancy outcomes IVF cycle. It directly impacts efficiency procedure, site deposition, catheter loading technique, placement distan...

BACKGROUND Endometrial cavity fluid (ECF) is a fluid accumulation within the endometrial cavity. The significance of ECF remains unclear during the program of in vitro fertilization-embryo transfer (IVF-ET). The aim of the present study was to investigate the associated factors to ECF, visualized through ultrasound at the day of oocyte retrieval, and the relevant impact on the outcome of IVF-ET...

STUDY DESIGN Retrospective cohort study of one reproductive medical center, from 1st Jan., 2009, to 31st Dec., 2014. All patients fulfilled the Bologna criteria and accept IVF/ICSI-ET treatment with stimulation cycle. The main outcome measures were clinical pregnancy ...

Background O-30: The Correlation between Myometrial Thickness and In Vitro Fertilization/ Intracyto- Plasmic Sperm Injection (IVF/ ICSI) Outcomes MaterialsAndMethods In this prospective cohort study, 453 infertile women undergoing IVF-ET/ICSI cycles without any obvious pathology of uterine were enrolled. Trans-vaginal ultrasounds were conducted on days 2-4 of the cycle (menstrual phase) precedi...

BACKGROUND With the development of assisted reproductive technology, more patients with infertility prefer to get pregnant by in vitro fertilization and embryo transplantation (IVF-ET). But the indications of IVF-ET must be strictly controlled by the clinicians. CASE REPORT We described a case of a 29-year-old pregnant Chinese woman with military tuberculosis. She was admitted to the hospital...

The aim of this study was to evaluate the clinical efficacy of body mass index (BMI) as a predictor of in vitro fertilization and embryo transfer (IVF-ET) outcomes. Two hundred twenty-three IVF-ET cycles in 164 patients under 37 yr using GnRH agonist long protocols were included in this retrospective study. All of the selected cases were divided into two groups by a cutoff of 24 kg/m2 and these...

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the effect of a 3-month course of GnRH agonist administered immediately before IVF-ET in infertile patients with endometriosis. DESIGN Prospective, randomized trial. SETTING Three tertiary care assisted reproductive technology programs. PATIENT(S) IVF-ET candidates with surgically confirmed endometriosis. INTERVENTION(S) Twenty-five patients received three courses ...
