In this report, our early experience with screening, monitoring and coordinating IVF utilising gestational carrier treatment is described. Although congenital and iatrogenic etiologies for uterine factor infertility manifest distinctly different reasons for considering a gestational carrier approach, we outline a unified management strategy for both conditions. One patient had congenital absenc...

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...

The aim of study was to investigate the effect corpus luteums (CL) size that detected
 before embryo transfer on conception in recipient Holstein cows. cows utilized had at least one birth and aged 3-8 years old. PGF2α injected 2 times space 14 days apart 87 which show estrous symptoms were determined as recipient. Fresh embryos transferred after 6th-8th days. Ovaries examined by ultrasoun...

Objective: The aim of this trial was to determine whether endometrial scratch-suction caused by insertion tube of (IUCD) with suction improved the probability of pregnancy in the subsequent IVF cycle in patients who had previous failed IVF outcome by removing small polyps and any hazardous materials. Design: Observational prospective cohort experimental study. Setting: Zagazig University Hospit...

STUDY QUESTION Does vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) have important roles during early embryo development and implantation? SUMMARY ANSWER VEGF plays key roles during mouse preimplantation embryo development, with beneficial effects on time to cavitation, blastocyst cell number and outgrowth, as well as implantation rate and fetal limb development. WHAT IS KNOWN ALREADY Embryo impl...

Background A major hurdle to improved in vitro fertilization (IVF) success rate is defective endometrial receptivity and implantation. Various techniques have been advocated to increase implantation while reducing side effects. Currently, embryo transfer (ET) is performed blindly without direct visualization. As such, we sought to develop a technique utilizing a flexible minihysteroscope with a...

OBJECTIVE To determine the relative efficacy of ultrasound-guided embryo transfer and embryo transfer by clinical touch alone. DESIGN Systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized, controlled trials comparing ultrasound-guided embryo transfer with embryo transfer by clinical touch alone. SETTING Infertility centers providing treatment with in vitro fertilization/embryo transfer. PATIE...

A case of combined interstitial and intrauterine pregnancies after bilateral salpingectomy and in-vitro fertilization with embryo transfer is reported. The case was incorrectly diagnosed ultrasonographically as intrauterine triplets at 7 weeks gestation. The patient suffered from intra-abdominal bleeding at 14 weeks gestation. At laparotomy, a ruptured left interstitial pregnancy with a non-via...

background: improvement of assisted reproductive technique (art) results in higher pregnancy rates from positive beta hcg to take home baby statistics. despite developments in culture media allowing blastocyst stage transfer, some centers apply second, third and sometimes fourth day post injection for embryo transfer. this study aimed to compare their reproductive outcomes.   methods : this pro...
