Ultrasound Evaluation of Uterine Cavity Changes After Stimulation for In Vitro Fertilization

Objectives Mock embryo transfer (ET) before in vitro fertilization (IVF) allows for the clinical determination of uterine cavity length (UCL) to optimize embryo placement during clinical ET. Most studies have shown that optimal pregnancy rates occur with clinical ET at a depth of 15 mm from the uter...

Zusammenfassung:Objectives Mock embryo transfer (ET) before in vitro fertilization (IVF) allows for the clinical determination of uterine cavity length (UCL) to optimize embryo placement during clinical ET. Most studies have shown that optimal pregnancy rates occur with clinical ET at a depth of 15 mm from the uterine fundus. In our study, we sought to determine the effect of ovarian stimulation and endometrial preparation on UCL using 2D transabdominal ultrasound. Methods We performed a retrospective cohort study comparing documented 2D transabdominal ultrasound measurements of UCL at the time of mock ET and clinical ET. Statistical analyses were performed with SPSS v. 26 with paired sample t‐test and significance determined with P
