BP and Live Birth Rate in Fresh Embryo Transfer
A new study found that a freeze-all strategy, which involves elective freezing all embryos, does not result in a higher chance of pregnancy than fresh embryo transfer . This suggests that a freeze-all strategy should be avoided for all women undergoing assisted reproductive technology treatment. While frozen embryo transfer (FET) has become a common option in reproductive medicine, the effectiveness of FET for improving pregnancy rates remains controversial. This study sought to fill the evidence gap by comparing the outcomes of frozen and fresh embryo transfers in ovulatory women. Infertility treatments such as in vitro fertilization (IVF) and intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) have become increasingly popular over the last decade. They have been shown to be successful in many cases, although they are not always a sure-fire way to get pregnant. During the transfer, a catheter-like tube is passed through the woman's cervix and into her uterus to transport the embryo. This is d...
