background: repeated implantation failure (rif) is defined as pregnancy failure after two to six times with at least ten high grade embryo transfer to uterus. a variety of causes have been anticipated for rif, including anatomical, autoimmune, genetics, endocrine and thrombotic anomalies. factors responsible for rif have important implication regarding treatment however in many couples a perfec...

objective: repeated implantation failure (rif) is a condition in which the embryos implantation decreases in the endometrium. so, our aim was to evaluate the effect of local endometrial injury on embryo transfer results. materials and methods: in this simple randomized clinical trial (rct), a total of 120 patients were selected. the participants were less than 40 years old, and they are in thei...

Successful embryo implantation is a process which requires both a synchronous development and interaction between hatched blastocyst and endometrium. The process of implantation as a scheme is presented in Pic. 1, where the diagram shows a preimplantation stage of embryo and some important factors thought to be necessary for uterine receptivity: COX-2 (cyclooxygenase-2), EGF (epidermal growth f...

Background: The process of implantation involves the interaction of the human embryo and the uterine epithelium. Failure of implantation is a major reason for infertility in women and the inability to achieve endometrial receptivity is responsible for much of the failure of reproductive technologies. Management of repeated implantation failure despite transfer of good-quality embryos still rema...

Background: In spite of the great deal of research in assisted reproductive techniques, more than 80% of transferred embryos by IVF/ICSI methods fail to be implanted. The causes for repeated implantation failures (RIF) may be reduced endometrial receptivity or other various uterine pathologies, such as thin endometrium, altered expression of adhesive molecules or immunological factors; whereas ...

Background: Repeated Implantation Failure (RIF) is one of the most intricate obstacles in assisted reproduction. The cytokine and chemokine composition of uterine cavity seem to play important roles in the implantation process. Objective: To compare the cytokine profile in the endometrium of normal fertile women and those with repeated implantation failure. Methods: After enzymatic digestion of...

The purpose of this study was to investigate the clinical application of uterine artery blood flow parameters by vaginal color Doppler ultrasonography in patients with repeated embryo implantation failure and to examine the correlation between uterine artery blood flow parameters and microvessel density (MVD). We monitored the outcomes of in vitro fertilization and embryo transfer in eighty pat...

Implantation failure after IVF is one of the factors associated with a reduced chance of pregnancy for some patients. Assisted hatching methodologies are designed to facilitate the embryo's escape from the zona pellucida, and this strategy has been suggested as a means of improving pregnancy rates in patients with previous implantation failure. The aim of this prospective and randomized study w...
