Abstract

OBJECTIVE: To compare the transfer pregnancy rates with frozen embryos from patients with deep endometriosis and non-endometriosis patients. METHODS: We conducted a retrospective cohort study of review of medical records of 181 women aged 18-40 years, undergoing transfer of frozen embryos into a fertility center. The data collected was from January 2007 to December 2013. RESULTS: Regarding the patients with endometriosis, there was no statistical difference in proportion to compare polycystic ovarian syndrome, male factor, tubal factor and unexplained infertility. CONCLUSION: There was no difference between pregnancy rates obtained from frozen embryo transfer in deep endometriosis compared to other causes of infertility.
