BACKGROUND: The optimal interpregnancy interval (IPI) before reinitiating frozen-thawed embryo transfer (FET) after pregnancy loss remains uncertain, particularly in women undergoing assisted reproductive technology. Current guidelines reco…
OBJECTIVE: To study if the transfer of warmed blastocysts without blastocoele re-expansion is effective and safe. METHODS: Three thousand one hundred ninety-six frozen-thawed single blastocyst transfer cycles were conducted. The embryos we…
INTRODUCTION: Although the effectiveness of pentoxifylline (PF) as a selective inhibitor of phosphodiesterase to enhance sperm motility through increasing cyclic nucleotide in cases of absolute asthenozoospermia has been demonstrated for IC…
The sex ratio shift was observed in peoples who underwent ART treatment. Moreover, there is limited evidence on differences in sex ratio between single frozen-thawed blastocyst morphology, insemination type and transfer days. So further res…
BACKGROUND: 0PN zygotes have a low cleavage rate, and the clinical outcomes of cleavage-stage embryo transfers are unsatisfactory. Blastocyst culturing is used to screen 0PN embryos, but whether the cell number of 0PN embryos on day 3 affec…
BACKGROUND: Early cumulus cell removal combined with early rescue intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) has been widely practiced in many in vitro fertilization (IVF) centers in China in order to avoid total fertilization failure. However…
Background: Endometriosis is one of the most challenging diseases for doctors helping infertile women conceive, which has become a common method to help maternal endometriosis-associated infertility. Women with advanced endometriosis posses…
RESEARCH QUESTION: Does the use of a levonorgestrel-releasing intrauterine system (LNG-IUS) improve the ongoing pregnancy rate of vitrified-warmed embryo transfer in women with adenomyosis undergoing IVF? DESIGN: This retrospective study i…
Objective To investigate the effect of levonorgestrel-releasing intrauterine system (LNG-IUS, Mirena) on adenomyosis and its effect on frozen embryo transfer outcomes. Methods A total of 122 oocytes pick up cycles treated with proges…
This study reports an IVF patient who had adenomyosis underwent 2 in vitro fertilization (IVF) cycles and 3 frozen embryo transfer (FET) cycles but all failed. Then a Levonorgestrel-releasing intrauterine system (LNG-IUS) was inserted into …
