background: natural endometrium in frozen-thawed embryo transfer (fet) may have some benefits upon implantation in patients with repeated implantation failure (rif). it might be due to possible differences between natural and stimulated endometrial growth factors and cytokins secretions. objective: the objective of this study was to compare the pregnancy rate of fet on modified natural cycle ve...

OBJECTIVE To compare the effectiveness of elective single embryo transfer versus double embryo transfer on the outcomes of live birth, multiple live birth, miscarriage, preterm birth, term singleton birth, and low birth weight after fresh embryo transfer, and on the outcomes of cumulative live birth and multiple live birth after fresh and frozen embryo transfers. DESIGN One stage meta-analysi...

climate of political confrontation, and given the diverse historic How should the number of embryos background of settlements during the colonization of North transferred to the uterus following inAmerica (Quinn, 1995), it is not surprising that individual vitro fertilization be determined to liberties and the protection of the rights of local communities avoid the risk of multiple gestation? f...

Background: This retrospective study compared pregnancy outcomes from single embryo transfer (SET) with multiple embryo transfer (MET) in too young (≤25 years) and young (>25 years) infertile patients. Materials and Methods: Data from infertile patients who referred for ART treatment to Yazd infertility center during 1992 to 2012 were studied retrospectively. Records of patients with SET or MET...

OBJECTIVE To compare the live birth rate, multiple pregnancy rate, and obstetric outcomes of elective single and double embryo transfers. DESIGN Case series with internal comparisons. SETTING University affiliated hospital, Hong Kong. PARTICIPANTS Between October 2009 and December 2011, 206 women underwent their first in-vitro fertilisation cycle. Elective single embryo transfer was offer...

Background To compare the pregnancy outcomes after two embryos versus three embryos transfers (ETs) in women undergoing in vitro fertilization (IVF)/intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) cycles. MaterialsAndMethods This retrospective study was performed on three hundred eighty seven women with primary infertility and with at least one fresh embryo in good quality in order to transfer at each ...

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...

BACKGROUND The most common complication of IVF is multiple pregnancy, which occurs in 25% of pregnancies following the transfer of two embryos. Single embryo transfer can minimize twin pregnancies but could also lower live birth rates. Our aim was to perform a systematic review of randomized trials to determine the effectiveness of single versus double embryo transfer. METHODS Cochrane Collab...

background: embryo transfer (et) has traditionally been performed two days after oocyte retrieval. delaying transfer from day two to day three or four would allow for further development of the embryo might therefore optimize the selection of viable and best quality embryos for transfer and may be closer to the physiological time of the entry into the uterus than transfer on day two and might h...

background: embryo selection is a vital part of in vitro fertilization (ivf) programs, with morphology-based grading systems having been widely used for decades. time-lapse imaging combined with embryo morph kinetics may proffer a non-invasive means for improving embryo selection. we report the first ongoing and chemical pregnancies using time-lapse embryo scope to select best embryos for trans...
