Filter by:The investigators would like to assess whether selecting mature sperm using PICSI (selecting for sperm that bind hyaluronan) can optimize the IVF outcome of ICSI . Aim 1. Primary outcome: To compare routine sperm selection using ICSI with sperm selection using PICSI plates in terms of implantation and fertilization rates for couples with male factor fertility 2. Secondary outcome : To compare live birth rates ,ongoing pregnancies and miscarriage rates for couples with male factor infertility using routine sperm selection with ICSI compared to using PICSI plates for sperm selection Hypothesis: Sperm selected for ICSI using (PICSI) will reveal increased implantation rates in comparison to sperm selected for conventional ICSI
The purpose of this study is to determine whether a policy of elective single embryo transfer (eSET) plus single embryo cryotransfer is as effective as a double embryo transfer in terms of clinical pregnancy rate
Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) affects 5-10% of women in childbearing age. Hyperinsulinemia contributes to chronic anovulation commonly encountered in women with PCOS. The first choice therapy is clomiphene citrate (CC). In CC resistant cases, the American College of Obstetrics and Gynecology (ACOG) recommends the use of insulin sensitizer metformin. Other insulin sensitizing agents include rosiglitazone and pioglitazone. Pioglitazone is said to improve fertility and ovulation in patients with PCOS.CC may be associated with poor endometrial thickening due to its antiestrogenic effect. Letrozole may improve this condition. In this study we will compare the effect of combined letrozole-metformin-pioglitazone with that of combined CC-metformin-pioglitazone in ovulation induction in CC-resistant PCOS women.
The purpose of this study is to assess the feasibility of conducting an Internet-based prospective pregnancy study with preconception enrollment with women completing daily journals for up to 12 months while trying to conceive and weekly through pregnancy if it occurs.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether the effect of mixed herbals drug (citrus, citrolus vol, lan, carrot seed, zingiber, onion, basil, cinnamon) administration on male infertility: oligospermia
The main objective of this study is to investigate the association between the presence of HPV infection in one or both members of infertile/sub-infertile couples and the outcome of pregnancies obtained by assisted reproduction. The success of assisted medical procreation is defined as achieving a pregnancy resulting in the birth of a living, viable child.
The rational of the study is to assess the pregnancy rate after the transfer of frozen blastocyst in natural cycle controlled by external administration of hCG.
The purpose oh the study is to determine the usefulness of anti-Mullerian hormone (AMH) to identify women at risk of excessive and poor response in controlled ovarian stimulation (COS) for in vitro fertilization (IVF), and the clinical impact of applying individualized COS strategies in these subsets of patients.
One of the main factors in the success of in-vitro fertilization is the quality of the environment of the embryo. In contrast to maternal age, the environment in which the embryo develops is a modifiable factor. Many techniques, such as assisted hatching and perfecting culture media have been attempted in order to reproduce as much as possible the natural, physiological environment of the mother for the embryo in in-vitro fertilization. However, the different new culture media used are devoid of growth factors normally secreted by uterine cells that enhance the interaction between the embryo and its environment. Because the endometrial lining of the uterus secretes many different cytokines necessary for growth of the embryo, a new procedure has been developed to mimic the natural environment of the growing embryo using autologous (patient's own) endometrial cells in co-culture with the embryo. Endocell, a product developed by Genévrier Laboratories, received commercial authorization in France in 2011. It is the only system of autologous embryo-endometrium co-culture available on the actual market. The process consists of developing the embryo on a monolayer of the patient's own endometrial cells in order to favor its growth until the blastocyst stage (day 5) and to improve its implantation.
The purpose of this study is to improve patient understanding of and interest in donating frozen embryos resulting from in vitro fertilization (IVF) to others undergoing infertility treatment.
