Overview
Brief Summary
The study examines the association between the amount of physical activity of the patient, ie the number of steps daily / weekly, and the pregnancy rate after embryo transfer.
Detailed Description
Many studies have investigated the matter until today and still no reliable information about the relationship between physical activity and / or its intensity and the pregnancy rate after embryo transfer. All patients that would take part in the study will be given a pedometer to measure steps for a month. Measuring steps will begin preparation for embryo transfer and two weeks after. Collected information about pregnancy rate (BHCG positive or negative).
