PURPOSE: To study whether there is a marked interobserver discrepancy in the diagnosis of adenomyosis based on reviewing stored sonographic images of infertile patients? METHODS: Three reproductive endocrinology and infertility specialists…
BACKGROUND: Adenomyosis negatively impacts fertility treatment outcomes by lowering clinical pregnancy rates, reducing live birth rates, and increasing miscarriage rates following in vitro fertilization. Hormonal suppression therapy has eme…
A patient of advanced maternal age with infertility underwent assisted reproductive technology treatment, followed by a single euploid embryo transfer in a hormonal replacement therapy frozen cycle. The implanted embryo resulted in a thorac…
INTRODUCTION: Anti-Müllerian Hormone (AMH) and antral follicle count (AFC) are commonly used markers of ovarian reserve, yet their predictive accuracy in patients with low ovarian reserve remains limited. This study aimed to evaluate whethe…
Abstract Study question Can different observers successfully identify adenomyosis, based on the revised MUSA (Morphological Uterus Sonographic Assessment) criteria, using archived ultrasound pictures? Summary answer Stored ultrasound pictur…
Abstract Objective: To apply a combined protocol using GnRH agonists and letrozole for endometrial preparation in patients with severe adenomyosis undergoing frozen euploid single embryo transfer (eFET). Design: Case series. Setting: Terti…
PURPOSE: The objective of this study was to investigate whether women with diminished ovarian reserve who planned for PGT-A exhibit a lower number of blastocysts for biopsy, ploidy outcomes, and blastocyst quality on day 5, regardless of ag…
A rise in serum progesterone in the late follicular phase is a well described adverse effect of ovarian stimulation for IVF/ICSI. Previous data suggest, that enhanced gonadotropin stimulation causes progesterone elevation and the incidence …
Luteal phase support is becoming a highly personalized treatment based on each stimulation protocol and patient characteristics. After the application of human chorionic gonadotrophin (hCG) for final oocyte maturation, the vaginal route for…
CONTEXT: The widespread distribution of the Vitamin D (VitD) receptor in reproductive tissues suggests an important role for VitD in human reproduction. The assessment of patient´s VitD is based on the 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25(OH)D) metaboli…
Objective: To evaluate intraday serum progesterone levels on the day of final oocyte maturation in women undergoing ovarian stimulation in a GnRH-antagonist protocol. Study design, size, and duration: The study was done as a prospective obs…
BACKGROUND: In the recent years, vitamin D has become a topical subject and a focus of research not only in reproductive medicine but across many medical disciplines. In reproductive medicine, studies have identified an association between …
Previous publications suggest a reduction in the ovarian reserve following ovarian surgery. The influence of the underlying disease, histology, size of the ovarian cyst and type of procedure remains unclear. The aim of this study was to inv…
Compartment syndrome of the lower extremities is a clinically and medicolegally potentially devastating complication. Recently, the more widespread use of advanced laparoscopic surgical techniques, dealing with complex gynecologic diseases,…
