OBJECTIVES: This study evaluated the efficacy of individualized follitropin delta dosing in patients with potential low response, defined by anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH) level <9 pmol/L, undergoing ovarian stimulation for assisted reproduct…
BACKGROUND: The GnRH antagonist protocol is widely used in IVF/ICSI treatments. It involves daily injections of a GnRH antagonist starting on stimulation day 5 or later to prevent premature ovulation by suppressing the endogenous gonadotrop…
BackgroundFollitropin delta is the first approved human recombinant follicle-stimulating hormone treatment administered through an algorithmic individualized dosing regimen based on body weight and anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH) levels. This …
Intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) and conventional in vitro fertilization (c-IVF) are widely used fertilization techniques in assisted reproduction, but their relative effectiveness in patients without severe male factor infertility r…
PURPOSE: To investigate baseline parameters and vaginal intimate hygiene habits comparing IVF patients with and without vaginal dysbiosis, a cross-sectional study. METHODS: Patients were grouped by the presence of vaginal dysbiosis status …
IMPORTANCE: The use of assisted reproductive technologies (ARTs) is steadily increasing worldwide. The outcomes associated with treatment for an individual's long-term health, including risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD), remain largely u…
BACKGROUND: There is concern that assisted reproductive technology (ART) may increase ovarian cancer risk, but previous studies are inconclusive. We compared ovarian cancer risk for women who gave birth after ART vs natural conception. MET…
OBJECTIVES: To investigate whether risks of stillbirth and neonatal death differ after fresh embryo transfers (fresh-ETs) and frozen embryo transfers (frozen-ETs) compared with singletons conceived without medical assistance. DESIGN: A pop…
INTRODUCTION: Over the last decades, the use of intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) has increased, even among patients without male factor infertility. The increase has happened even though there is no evidence to support that ICSI resu…
INTRODUCTION: Recent studies in in vitro fertilisation (IVF) patients have associated abnormal vaginal microbiota (AVM) with poor clinical pregnancy rates of 6%-9% per embryo transfer. The biological plausibility for this finding is hypothe…
OBJECTIVE: To compare the ongoing pregnancy rate between a freeze-all strategy and a fresh transfer strategy in assisted reproductive technology treatment. DESIGN: Multicentre, randomised controlled superiority trial. SETTING: Outpatient …
PURPOSE: To evaluate the association between anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH) and follicle density in infertile women with diminished ovarian reserve (DOR) versus women with normal ovarian reserve? METHODS: Case-control study comparing follicl…
INTRODUCTION: Tonsillectomy is one of the most common procedures in the field of ear, nose and throat procedures. In 2012, the annual incidence in Denmark was 129.4 per 100,000 inhabitants. A common complication is post-tonsillectomy haemor…
STUDY QUESTION: Does hormone stimulation during assisted reproductive technology (ART) treatment increase the risk of ovarian cancer? SUMMARY ANSWER: No increased risk of ovarian cancer was found among ART-treated women, with the exception…
Study questionDid weight reduction in obese women scheduled for IVF increase cumulative live birth rate (CLBR) after 2 years?Summary answerWeight loss prior to IVF did not increase CLBR.What is known alreadyFew studies have investigated the…
BACKGROUND: In assisted reproductive technology, prediction of treatment failure remains a great challenge. The development of more sensitive assays for measuring anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH) has allowed for the possibility to investigate i…
