BACKGROUND: The impact of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) on embryo chromosomal competence during in vitro fertilization (IVF) remains poorly defined. This study aimed to evaluate embryo euploidy rates among patients with IBD undergoing IV…
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the association between prior mode of delivery (cesarean vs. vaginal) and endometrial thickness in the subsequent frozen embryo transfer (FET) cycle. The secondary aim was to evaluate FET cycle outcomes. DESIGN: Retr…
PURPOSE: Determine if the gene expression profiles of ovarian support cells (OSCs) and cumulus-free oocytes are bidirectionally influenced by co-culture during in vitro maturation (IVM). METHODS: Fertility patients aged 25 to 45 years old …
PURPOSE: The aim of this study is to examine the impact of female body mass index (BMI) on IVF cycle outcomes. METHODS: This is a retrospective cohort study including 51,198 women who initiated their first autologous IVF cycle in 13 fertil…
OBJECTIVE: Controlled ovarian hyperstimulation (COH) promotes multifollicular growth, increasing the chance of obtaining euploid embryos that will successfully implant. Whether aneuploidy is increased from COH with exogenous gonadotropins i…
BACKGROUND: Elevated follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) is associated with poor vaginal oocyte retrieval (VOR) outcomes and cycle cancellations but intercycle variability in basal FSH reportedly does not predict ovarian response. METHODS: …
PURPOSE: Our purpose was to determine the effects of endometriosis on implantation and pregnancy rates in ovum recipients. METHODS: The medical records of 239 consecutive oocyte recipient patients who were treated between January 1, 1991, …
