Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) improves success in assisted reproduction
A recent study confirms that the use of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) in assisted reproductive technology treatments significantly improves implantation rates, clinical pregnancy rates, and live birth rates. Learn more about this regenerative technique and how it benefits women with a history of implantation failure.

Frozen vs. fresh embryos: impact on fetal growth
New research analyzes early intrauterine growth by comparing IVF cycles with fresh and frozen embryos. The results show a slight difference in size in favor of frozen embryos, regardless of whether they are blastocysts or day 3 embryos.

Endometrial receptivity and implantation failure
International researchers confirm that women with implantation failure suffer more alterations in their implantation window. The study highlights that advanced age and a long history of infertility are determining factors for indicating personalized endometrial receptivity tests.

Damaged sperm DNA: impact on IVF, ICSI, and insemination
A systematic review assesses the impact of sperm DNA fragmentation on fertility. The results show a lower clinical pregnancy rate in IVF and artificial insemination, and a strong link with the risk of spontaneous abortion in ICSI cycles, suggesting the need for specific tests.

The endometrial microbiome alters the success of in vitro fertilization (IVF)
Increasingly, more attention and importance is being given to the role of the endometrial microbiota (the microorganisms present inside the uterus) in relation to endometrial receptivity and the possibility of embryo implantation after assisted reproduction treatment.

Frozen vs. fresh embryos: Does uterine preparation have an impact?
In assisted reproduction, frozen embryo transfer is common. This study evaluates whether there are differences in perinatal outcomes with fresh vs. frozen embryo transfer, as well as between different protocols for endometrial preparation prior to frozen embryo transfer.

IVF with euploid embryos: Does maternal age affect success?
As a woman ages, the likelihood of chromosomal abnormalities (aneuploidy) in embryos increases. For this reason, PGT-A can be performed to select euploid embryos without chromosomal abnormalities for transfer. But does this equalize the success rate regardless of the woman's age?
