background: despite numerous developments in the field of assisted reproduction, the implantation rate remains low. among the various reasons of implantation failure, endometrial regularity has an important role. hysteroscopy is an accurate method for evaluating the endometrial characteristics, with the ability to treat uterine pathology. objective: the aim of the present study was to evaluate ...

background: infertility is an increasing medical and social problem. in vitro fertilization (ivf) has become a common and accessible treatment for a wide variety of indications that have variable outcomes. natural killer (nk) cells have been identified as relevant immunological factors involved in reproductive success or failure. objective: the aim of this study was to compare the percentage of...

The success of reproduction, although gradually increasing over the years, many couples also had been left frustrated following repeated failed attempts. Implantation of the embryo, can only take place in a receptive uterus and inadequate uterine receptivity is responsible for approximately two-thirds of implantation failures. Endometrial receptivity can be reduced by morphological and/or molec...

this is the first report implementing combined density gradient centrifugation/zeta (dgc/zeta) sperm selection procedure for a couple with eleven previous intra cytoplasmic sperm injection/ in vitro fertilization (icsi/ivf) failure cycles. semen analysis was carried out according to world health organization criteria. protamine deficiency, dna fragmentation and morphology were assessed by chrom...

BACKGROUND An examination of the alterations in Fibroblast Growth Factor-1 (FGF-1) expression in a group of repeated implantation failure after in vitro fertilization (IVF) patients, when compared to fertile patients. PATIENTS AND METHODS Study group consisted of 24 patients with repeated implantation failure and 29 fertile control patients. Endometrial samples received at the luteal phase we...
