To study the effect of endometrial thickness (ET) and echogenic pattern (EP) in oocyte donation cycles upon pregnancy outcomes.
Seventy-nine cycles resulting in blastocyst embryo transfer were evaluated. Donors underwent ovarian hyperstimulation using rFSH and GnRH-antagonist. Recipients were synchronized to donors using GnRH-agonist down-regulation followed by fixed dose of estrogen (E2) and progesterone (P4) following hCG. Transvaginal ultrasound (US) obtained ET and EP 10-11 days after initiation of E2 and on day of embryo transfer. Primary outcome was ET and EP in pregnant and non-pregnant cycles. Stimulation and embryology data was analyzed in donors to assess differences prior to transfer.
Fifty-nine cycles resulted in clinical pregnancy. No differences were observed in pregnant vs. non-pregnant cycles in proliferative or secretory ET and EP. Similar baseline and stimulation characteristics were found in pregnant and non-pregnant cycles. Regression analysis showed end thickness were not predictive of pregnancy outcomes.
Endometrial characteristics in recipients prior to and following progesterone were not predictive of pregnancy outcomes.
研究卵母细胞捐赠周期中子宫内膜厚度(ET)和回声模式(EP)对妊娠结局的影响。
对79个导致囊胚胚胎移植的周期进行评估。供体使用重组促卵泡激素(rFSH)和促性腺激素释放激素拮抗剂(GnRH-antagonist)进行卵巢超刺激。受体使用GnRH激动剂下调,随后在人绒毛膜促性腺激素(hCG)后给予固定剂量的雌激素(E2)和孕激素(P4),使其与供体同步。在开始使用E2后10 - 11天以及胚胎移植当天,通过经阴道超声(US)测量ET和EP。主要结局是妊娠周期和未妊娠周期中的ET和EP。对供体的刺激和胚胎学数据进行分析,以评估移植前的差异。
59个周期实现了临床妊娠。在增殖期或分泌期的ET和EP方面,妊娠周期与未妊娠周期之间未观察到差异。在妊娠周期和未妊娠周期中发现了相似的基线和刺激特征。回归分析表明子宫内膜厚度不能预测妊娠结局。
孕激素使用前后受体的子宫内膜特征不能预测妊娠结局。
