The Combination of Endometrial Injury and Freeze All Strategy in Women With a History of RIF

Not Applicable

Completed

• Conditions: Endometrial Injury; Repeated Implantation Failures; Hysteroscopy

• Registration Number: NCT04597463
• Lead Sponsor: National and Kapodistrian University of Athens

Brief Summary

The investigators checked the hypothesis whether endometrial injury performed during the cycle before a frozen embryo transfer in women with RIF can improve pregnancy rates

Detailed Description

After a freeze all cycle, participants were divided in two groups: an intervention group (n=30), who underwent endometrial injury before the transfer, and a control group (n=30), who underwent no other intervention. The primary outcome was clinical pregnancy rate, while secondary clinical and laboratory parameters. Baseline and cycle characteristics were also compared between groups.
