Background: Currently, frozen embryo transfers contribute an increasing rate of births from assisted reproductive technologies such as in vitro fertilization (IVF). However, very few studies evaluated the neonatal outcomes from frozen embryo transfer. This study aimed to investigate and compare the neonatal outcomes from frozen embryo transfer versus fresh embryo transfers. Materials and Method...

Background: Controlled ovarian stimulation (COS) has been shown to advance endometrial maturation and affect adversely implantation in assisted reproduction technology (ART) cycles. It has been reported that there is a better embryo-endometrium synchrony in frozenthawed embryo transfer (FET) cycles than fresh embryo transfer (ET) cycles. The Background of this study was to compare ongoing pregn...

background: despite of higher pregnancy rate after frozen embryo transfer (fet) which is accepted by the majority of researches, the safety of this method and its effect on neonatal outcome is still under debate. objective: the aim of this study was to evaluate pregnancy and neonatal outcome of fet compare to fresh cycles. materials and methods: in this study,1134 patients using fresh et and 28...

OBJECTIVE It is well known that fresh blastocyst transfer results in better pregnancy outcomes with a smaller number of transferred embryos compared with cleavage stage embryo transfer. However, in terms of frozen-thawed blastocyst transfer, only a few studies are available. We aimed to evaluate clinical outcomes of frozen-thawed embryo transfer (FET) with blastocysts. METHODS Retrospective a...

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 ...

background: the use of assisted reproductive technology (art) is increasing in the world. the rate, efficacy and safety of art are very different among countries. there is an increase in the use of intra cytoplasmic sperm injection (icsi), single fresh embryo transfer (et) and frozen-thawed embryo transfer (fet). objective: the objective of this study was to compare pregnancy rate in fresh et a...

Recent dramatic increases in success rates with frozen-thawed embryo transfer (FET) are encouraging, as are numerous findings of several reduced risks with FET when compared with fresh transfer. These reduced risks include low birth weight and prematurity, among others. However, FET is also associated with increased risks of macrosomia and large for gestational age. There have been reports of g...

Aim Several studies have indicated that the cause of the increased birthweight of frozen-thawed embryos was associated with assisted reproductive technology (ART) procedures, such as cryopreservation. In the present study, the mean birthweight of singletons was compared between the ovulatory and hormone replacement therapy (HRT) cycles in order to investigate the primary factor that leads to hi...

The implantation of embryo depends on the quality of the embryo and the receptivity of the endometrium. While the factors affecting embryo quality were optimized, the implantation rates did not reach the desirable levels. This directs the blaming for endometrial receptivity which already has been affected by supra-physiological levels of hormone, namely estradiol, in controlled ovarian hypersti...

In order to reduce the chance of multiple pregnancy during in-vitro fertilisation (IVF)– embryo transfer treatment, there is an increasing trend towards transferring a lower number of embryos. Surplus good-quality embryos are then transferred in frozen-thawed embryo transfer (FET) cycles. The first pregnancy after FET was reported in 1983.1 It has been estimated that in IVF programmes in which ...
