MIFART: Does Myomectomy for Intramural Fibroid Improve ART Outcome?
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
Intamural fibroids (myoma) do exist in some infertile women undergoing IVF treatment. There is controversy whether myomectomy before IVF treatment could improve IVF outcome. This trial will examine whether myomectomy in those patients could improve the results.
