Does late follicular-phase elevated serum progesterone (LFEP) during ovarian stimulation for oocyte donation have an impact on embryo quality (EQ) and cumulative live birth rate (CLBR)?LFEP does not influence EQ nor CLBR in cycles.Ovarian promotes the production of (P) which, when follicular phase, has been demonstrated to a deleterious effect autologous fresh IVF outcomes. While there is robust evidence that this elevation results impaired endometrial receptivity, remains matter debate. The...
Research question Does reproductive outcome differ among the various subgroups of poor ovarian responders according to Bologna criteria? Design This was a retrospective, cohort study including criteria, undergoing an ICSI cycle from January 2011 until December 2017. Patients were divided into four groups: 1) age ≥ 40 years and abnormal response test, 2) years, reserve test one previous stimulation 3) 4) response. Result(s) Overall, 846 cycles in 706 included: 310 group 1, 169 2, 52 3 315 4....
Background: Bologna criteria poor ovarian responders have a very low prognosis. Although, it has been proposed that LH supplementation could be beneficial in women with previous hypo-response to FSH. There are no studies comparing the cumulative live birth rates (LBRs) between corifoliltropin alfa (CFA) and highly purified human menopausal gonadotrophin (hp-hMG). Objective: To compare LBRs undergoing stimulation corifollitropin followed by hp-hMG versus alone GnRH antagonist protocol....
A 40-year-old nulliparous woman with no medical history attended our fertility center the desire to become pregnant sperm donation. Her ovarian reserve was moderately low (Anti-Müllerian hormone, 0.9 ng/mL; antral follicle count, 7) and she advised start in-vitro fertilization/intracytoplasmic injection (ICSI) treatment. Two cleavage-stage embryos were transferred 3 days following oocyte retrieval. Twelve later, serum beta-human chorionic gonadotropin (β-hCG) positive. The first transvaginal...
Abstract Study question Does the mean serum trigger-progesterone levels show significant variation based on administered rFSH dose from day 8 onwards during ovarian stimulation using corifollitropin-alfa? Summary answer Lower doses of are linked to reduced progesterone (P4) without impact cumulus-oocyte complexes. What is known already Progesterone elevation ovulation trigger prompts a non-elective freeze-all strategy, given lower live birth rates in fresh embryo transfers. Ongoing research...

Metodos: Presentamos estudio cohorte retrospectivo diagnostico tratadas Servicio Ginecologia del Hospital Padre Hurtado, entre enero 2002 y diciembre 2007. Se excluyeron cervical cornual, manejo expectante,...

The number who consult and then choose freeze oocytes increased almost exponentially in Chile throughout world. There little knowledge about motivation, experience, results elective oocyte cryopreservation Chile. objective was know future desire underwent this...
Male infertility is a problem that affects large percentage of the male population worldwide. Currently, standard method for semen quality evaluation conventional microscopy, but this has several disadvantages, including high costs, need specialized personnel, and cultural stigmas.

Metodos: Se registraron datos demograficos ginecologicos una cohorte retrospectiva semanas, entre enero 2008 diciembre 2010. establecieron 3 grupos trabajo...
RESUMEN Antecedentes: La evaluacion precisa de la proteinuria constituye un pilar importante para el diagnostico del sindrome hipertensivo embarazo (SHE). El estandar dorado esta medicion es recoleccion orina en 24 horas, pero debido a duracion toma muestra, alternativas como albuminuria semicuantitativa se utiliza con mayor frecuencia los servicios urgencia nuestro pais. Objetivo: Evaluar rendimiento y su asociacion horas pacientes SHE. Metodos: Estudio retrospectivo 145 sospecha SHE...
Abstract Study question Is there a concordance between the new optical microscope based on origami (Foldscope) with traditional for semen analysis as screening method? Summary answer There is 91% direct foldscope and initial approximation to male infertility. What known already Semen key element men fertility evaluation. In order obtain sample, patients have assist clinic where sample analyzed. However, due either time or distance problems, many cannot attend clinics. On other hand,...
Amniotic fluid variations remain unexplained in an important proportion of fetuses. Gestational Diabetes and gastrointestinal congenital anomalies are mentioned as main causes polyhydramnios, but functional diseases such gastroesophageal reflux (GER) has not been studied. The objective was to study the association AFI gastroesophagic reflux. Retrospective all singleton pregnancies with amniotic index measurements available our hospital database, from 2009 2011.

Abstract Study question What is the impact of post-warming blastocysts after very short-term culture (<2 hours) or (2–4 on clinical outcomes? Summary answer The outcomes and were not significantly different in vitrified-warmed blastocyst transfer. known already In transfer (VBT), complete blastomere survival mitotic resumption during warming are generally considered to be most important factors affecting pregnancy outcomes. It has been assumed that a sufficient time may required for...
