Open AccessIs day 7 culture necessary for in vitro fertilization of cryopreserved/warmed human oocytes?
Human embryos are usually cultured to blastocyst stage by Day 5 or 6 after insemination. However, some embryos grow slowly and reach blastocyst stage at Day 7. Acceptable live birth rates have been reported af...

Open AccessAneuploidy analysis in day 7 human blastocysts produced by in vitro fertilization
Human embryos produced by in vitro fertilization (IVF) are usually cultured to day 6 after insemination, and good quality of embryos should develop to blastocyst stage at days 5 and 6. However, some embryos de...

Assessment of aneuploidy formation in human blastocysts resulting from donated eggs and the necessity of the embryos for aneuploidy screening
To examine the prevalence of aneuploidy in human blastocysts resulting from donated eggs and embryo implantation after transfer of normal euploid embryos. Also, to assess the necessity of preimplantation genet...

Efficiency of Polar Body Biopsy on Aneuploidy Screening by DNA Microarray for Single Euploid Embryo Transfer
Aneuploidy is a leading cause of recurrent miscarriage and congenital birth defects. Array-based comparative genomic hybridization (aCGH) can be used to simultaneously examine all 23 pairs of chromosomes in sa...

Open AccessMosaic pregnancy after transfer of a “euploid” blastocyst screened by DNA microarray
High proportions of human embryos produced by in vitro fertilization are aneuploidy and mosaic. DNA microarray is one of the most practical screening methods to select euploid embryos for transfer. However, mo...

Intramuscular route of progesterone administration increases pregnancy rates during non-downregulated frozen embryo transfer cycles
The optimal route of progesterone (P4) administration in embryo transfer (FET) cycles remains to be determined. The objective of this study is to compare the pregnancy outcomes between intramuscular (IM) and v...
