Filter by:Frozen embryo transfer (FET) cycles have become more common in recent years due to a push towards elective single embryo transfer (SET). While it is known that progesterone supplementation during the luteal phase improves clinical pregnancy rates, there is a paucity of prospective data on the impact of serum progesterone levels on pregnancy outcomes in FET cycles. This multicentre prospective cohort study aims to investigate the association between serum progesterone levels on the day of FET and pregnancy outcomes, and to determine a serum progesterone cut-off value above which clinical pregnancy and live birth are more likely to occur. Women undergoing ART-FET cycles at CARE Fertility clinics in the UK will be recruited and their serum progesterone measured on the day of frozen embryo transfer. Follow-up data will be stored in electronic patient records and analysed to determine whether a low serum progesterone level on the day of FET adversely affects ART outcomes.
The objective of this study is to perform a prospective randomized controlled trial seeking to characterize the effects of intra-ovarian injection of platelet rich plasma (PRP) on biomarkers of ovarian reserve as well as IVF outcomes in women with primary ovarian insufficiency (POI) and poor ovarian response (POR) who decline the use of an egg donor to establish a pregnancy.
The purpose of this study is to comprehensively evaluate the transcriptomic signal of the endometrium before, during, and after the window of receptivity.
Uterine septum is the most common congenital uterine malformation. It accounts for approximately 35% of all uterine malformations, while the frequency of uterine malformations in the general fertile population is estimated to be between 1% and 4%. The presence of a uterine septum is associated with subfertility and a high incidence of obstetric complications, such as spontaneous abortion, 3-fold increase in preterm premature rupture of the membranes (PROM), 6-fold increase in preterm delivery, malpresentation at delivery, caesarean section, and increased perinatal morbidity and mortality. Some studies have found that surgical resection of the uterine septum improves pregnancy outcomes and significantly reduces the risk of preterm delivery. Therefore, the risk for a short-term adverse outcome and long-term sequelae due to preterm delivery such as intraventricular hemorrhage, necrotizing enterocolitis, sepsis, patent ductus arteriosus, retinopathy, deafness, chronic lung disease, cerebral palsy, perinatal death, and impaired mental development in women with uterine septum could be lowered by performing a relatively simple and safe hysteroscopic septum resection (HSR). However, there are two major concerns regarding HSR: cervical incompetence due to excessive dilatation during hysteroscopy and the rare yet serious complication of uterine rupture in subsequent pregnancy or delivery. Considering these elements, the aim of this study will be to evaluate the rate of preterm delivery in singleton pregnancy comparing primary infertile women who underwent HSR and who did not undergo the same procedure, with our without in vitro fertilization.
Randomized trial comparing the efficacy of two different times of administration of cabergoline in patients undergoing controlled ovarian stimulation and oocyte collection.
Hysteroscopy is an important tool in the evaluation of sterility. Assessing tubal patency during hysteroscopy seems highly relevant, particularly when it allows for a low cost, fast, gentle, and accurate way of gathering information that may guide clinical care. Therefore, it is important to know which technique is the best. Thus, the primary aim of this study is to evaluate the reliability of (1.) the hysteroscopic visualization of a "tubal flow" and (2.) the "Parryscope technique" as compared to the gold standard, namely laparoscopic chromopertubation. In a prospective, randomized study, the following women are enrolled: (1.) The patient is subfertile, defined as being unable to become pregnant within a year despite unprotected sexual intercourse. It is also within the standard of care to be presumed subfertile if one has tried for six months and has known risk factors that would hinder conception, including but not limited to anovulation and endometriosis. (2.) A concurrent diagnostic hysteroscopy and laparoscopy with chromopertubation are performed at the Clinical Division of Gynecological Endocrinology and Reproductive Medicine at the Medical University of Vienna. Hysteroscopic evaluation of tubal patency (either by a positive "tubal flow" or a visible flow of air bubbles in the "Parryscope technique") and the result of the laparoscopic chromopertubation (tubal patency existing or not existing) will be the primary outcome parameters. A total 60 patients are enrolled (30 patients in the "flow assessment" group, 30 patients in the "Parryscope" group) and randomization is performed as block randomization in 4 blocks.
The study will describe the effectiveness of ovarian stimulation in correlation with female infertility causes in a Lebanese population: a comparative study using 5 protocols of ovulation induction (treatment with "A" gonadotropins alone, "B" short GnRH agonist, "C" multiple-dose GnRH antagonist, "D" long GnRH agonist and "E" combined protocol of GnRH antagonist and agonist) and the outcomes of ICSI. This comparative study will help clinicians to select the relevant protocol of ovarian stimulation related to the female infertility disorders.
The objective of the study is to gain a better understanding of the gene expression changes in the endometrial biopsy especially whether the endometrium has reached a receptive status, i.e. the implantation window, or not.
Administration of a multicomponent dietary supplement (myo-inositol, vitamin D3, folic acid and melatonin) to women undergoing IVF procedures. The aim of the study is to monitor the effects on the pregnancy, implantation and abortion rates.
We aimed to decrease quantity of exogenous estrogen and evaluated the success rate of ongoing pregnancy in women undergone artificial FET who have a surplus embryos at previous fertility treatment cycles. In this study, endometrial prepared with standard long GnRH protocol and for luteal phase support patients received 6 mg oral E2 and intramuscularly P 100 mg/d and embryos on day 2-3 were transferred. Control group continued E2 until 12 week of pregnancy, while for cases after identify gestational sac with heart beat (the 6 week of pregnancy) by vaginal ultrasonography, E2 will discontinued.
