background: nowadays artificially assisted reproductive techniques are used to cure infertility. these methods are highly expensive, time-consuming and have low success rates which are usually around 20-40%. one of the best alternate methods for infertility treatment that can be considered is adoption that often decreases the treatment costs and the psychological impact within an infertile coup...

diminished ovarian reserve (dor) significantly decreases the success rate of the assisted reproductive technique (art). in this study, we assessed the effect of melatonin on the art outcomes in women with dor. a double-blinded, randomized, clinical trial was performed on 80 women with dor as a pilot study in shiraz, between 2014 and 2015. dor was defined as the presence of 2 of the following 3 ...

background: spontaneous occurrences of multifetal pregnancies always have been a medical problem. the risks of perinatal morbidity and mortality and maternal morbidity increase with enhancement of the number of fetuses. in our prospective experimental study, the outcome of twin pregnancy after assisted reproductive technologies (art) with and without multifetal pregnancy reduction (mfpr) is com...

background: improvement of assisted reproductive technique (art) results in higher pregnancy rates from positive beta hcg to take home baby statistics. despite developments in culture media allowing blastocyst stage transfer, some centers apply second, third and sometimes fourth day post injection for embryo transfer. this study aimed to compare their reproductive outcomes.   methods : this pro...

background: public interest in assisted reproductive technology (art) has remained high since the birth of the world’s first in vitro fertilization baby, louise brown, in the united kingdom. art allows scientists to manipulate the fertilization process in order to bypass some pathological obstacles such as blocked fallopian tubes and non-functioning ovaries in the females, and blocked vas defer...

background: human fertility has been declined all over the world. advanced women’s age is one of the most important factors in determining the success of reproduction and ageing has negative impact on art outcome and advanced female age decreases the chance of live birth rates achieved using art, especially after 40 years of age. objective: to evaluate art outcomes regarding to pregnancy, abort...

background: anti-mullerian hormone (amh) levels may represent the ovarian follicular pool and could be a useful marker of ovarian reserve. the clinical application of amh measurement has been proposed in the prediction of quantitative and qualitative aspects in assisted reproductive technologies. objective: this study aimed to assess the relationship between the serum levels of amh and results ...

apparent rise in the incidence of infertility in females and the trend shifting towards delayed child bearing brought up the concept of ovarian ageing. women in their early thirties show poor ovarian reserve which is an entity named as early ovarian ageing. early ovarian ageing is mostly genetically determined, but acquired modifiable factors like smoking, or ovarian surgery have some roles. in...
