Eligibility Criteria

Criteria

Ages Eligible for Study:
18 Years to 37 Years
Sexes Eligible for Study:
Female
Accepts Healthy Volunteers:
No
Inclusion Criteria:
  • Women aged 18-37 years

  • Women who have undergone 2-4 previous fresh in vitro fertilization (IVF) or intracytoplasmatic sperm injection (ICSI) cycles that all resulted in a negative βhCG test, despite transfer of at least one embryo/blastocyst of good quality

  • Women who have in the current controlled ovarian stimulation cycle for IVF/ICSI followed the long Gonadotrophin Releasing Hormone (GnRH) agonist or GnRH antagonist protocol, received hCG for triggering of final follicular maturation and have undergone oocyte retrieval for IVF/ICSI with the purpose of fresh transfer

  • Retrieval of at least 6 oocytes in the current controlled ovarian stimulation cycle

  • Subjects should have at least one embryo of good quality available for transfer on day 3, or at least one good quality blastocyst available for transfer on day 5

Exclusion Criteria:
  • A total of 6 or more controlled ovarian stimulation cycles for IVF/ICSI

  • Abnormal karyotype

  • Uterine pathology or hydrosalpinx

  • Diagnosed with acquired or congenital thrombophilia disease
