INTRODUCTION: Investigation of the number of oocytes recovered from different ovarian stimulation (OS) protocols is essential, as oocyte number is positively associated with the number of good-quality embryos obtained; however, there are fe…

Letrozole and other aromatase inhibitors are increasingly recognized as first-line ovulation induction (OI) medications, offering an efficient and physiologic approach to ovarian stimulation that enhances outcomes in reproductive medicine. …

OBJECTIVE: To assess the adequate ovarian follicular development and oocyte recovery between ovarian potential (antral follicle count [AFC]) before the start of ovarian stimulation (OS) and oocyte quantity and quality at oocyte retrieval. A…

Background: Despite significant advances in assisted reproductive technology (ART), disparities in clinical outcomes persist. While patient-related factors are well-studied, the role of partner ethnicity remains understudied. We hypothesize…

ObjectiveTo assess the influence of basal serum levels of luteinizing hormone (LH), total testosterone (TT), and free testosterone (FT) on in vitro fertilization (IVF) success rates in patients with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS).Material…

OBJECTIVE: To assess the effect of endometrial thickness (EMT) on live birth rates (LBR) in women with endometrial lining between 7.0-9.9 mm. METHODS: This retrospective cohort study included women who underwent fresh and frozen embryo tran…

BACKGROUND: Currently, there is no consensus on the optimal management of women with low prognosis in ART. In this Delphi consensus, a panel of international experts provided real-world clinical perspectives on a series of literature-suppor…

PURPOSE: PCOS and endometriosis are independent risk factors for perinatal outcomes. Little research has evaluated the concomitant effects of these conditions, nor have studies been conducted on a population database. We sought to identify …

BackgroundThis study aims to determine whether pre or post-processing semen parameters obtained during intrauterine insemination (IUI) predict pregnancy when controlling for confounding effects.Materials and methodsA prospective cohort stud…

OBJECTIVE: To assess obstetric outcomes and placental findings in pregnancies attained by in vitro fertilization (IVF) in patients with diminished ovarian reserve (DOR). DESIGN: Retrospective cohort study. SETTING: University-affiliated t…

Abstract Study question Does adenomyosis impact reproductive and neonatal outcomes? Summary answer Adenomyosis increases risk of infertility and pregnancy/delivery complications. Increased surveillance may aid in prevention and/or decreasin…

Abstract Study question Does endometriosis have an effect on the placental histopathology patterns in singleton live births resulting from in-vitro fertilization? Summary answer Endometriosis is associated with acute chorioamnionitis, place…

OBJECTIVE: Incarcerated uterus occurs at a rate of 1:3000 pregnancies. Previous studies focused on risk factors and management options, providing limited information about pregnancy outcomes. This study evaluates the effect of incarcerated …

RESEARCH QUESTION: Does endometriosis have an effect on the placental histopathology pattern and perinatal outcome in singleton live births resulting from IVF treatment? DESIGN: Retrospective cohort study evaluating the data on all live bi…

OBJECTIVE: To determine whether 2 months of pretreatment with 5 mg of letrozole daily plus leuprolide acetate at 3.75 mg monthly in women with laparoscopically confirmed American Society of Reproductive Medicine stage I-II endometriosis imp…

ObjectiveTo compare the influence of dual suppression with the use of GnRH agonist plus aromatase inhibitor compared with suppression with the use of GnRH agonist alone or no suppression at all in patients with idiopathic recurrent implanta…

Research questionDoes the addition of an aromatase inhibitor improve IVF outcomes in women with endometriomas when pretreating them with gonadotrophin-releasing hormone agonists?DesignRetrospective two-centre cohort study involving 126 wome…

PurposeTo assess effects on fertilization rate, embryo quality, pregnancy, and live birth rates of vitrification and warming of oocytes that matured in vitro (vIVM) compared to fresh in vitro maturation (fIVM) cycles.MethodsA retrospective …

Endometriosis is common among those with infertility, although many cases go undiagnosed. This study was performed to determine whether empiric treatment with two months of depo-leuprolide 3.75 mg monthly (dep-GnRH-ag) and letrozole 5 mg da…
