OBJECTIVE: To identify associations between presence of endometriosis and oocyte defects, embryo developmental potential, and cycle outcomes. METHODS: This study looked into the impact of endometriosis on oocyte and embryo quality, and bla…

PURPOSE: To investigate the predictive value of the motile sperm organelle morphology examination (MSOME) on embryo morphology. METHODS: The morphologies of 540 embryos obtained from 60 couples undergoing ICSI were evaluated from days 1 to…
