  • Title: Does the timing of mock embryo transfer trial improve implantation in intracytoplasmic sperm injection cycles?
    Author: Yoldemir T, Erenus M.
    Journal: Gynecol Endocrinol; 2011 Jun; 27(6):396-400. PubMed ID: 20528209.
    Abstract:
    AIM: To determine if endometrial trauma during embryo transfer trials (ETTs) improves implantation and clinical pregnancy rates in intracytoplasmic sperm injection treatment cycles. PATIENTS: One-hundred fifty women undergoing their first IVF treatment were included in a prospective randomised study in a University hospital clinic. ETTs were performed either on day 21 of the previous cycle, or on day 6 of the controlled ovarian hyperstimulatin (COH) cycle, or conducted at least two cycles before COH cycle. Clinical pregnancy and implantation rates were compared between the groups. RESULTS: There was no difference between the groups in terms of clinical pregnancy or implantation rates. CONCLUSION: Endometrial trauma by ETTs performed either during the preceding cycle or on day 6 of the COH cycle does not improve pregnancy rates.
