High Endometrial Thickness Does not Affect IVF/ICSI Outcomes

Abstract

Objective: We examined the impact of thicker endometrium (>15 mm) on in vitro fertilization (IVF) outcomes by evaluating therates of clinical pregnancy, ongoing pregnancy, and live birth.Methods: Intracytoplasmic sperm injection procedures performed at a single IVF center were retrospectively examined. A total of380 cases from patients aged between 19 and 39 years were included. The patients were divided into 2 groups according to theirendometrial thickness (EMT) value determined using ultrasonography on the day of human chorionic gonadotropin administration.Results: Embryo day was 5 in 78.4% of cases with EMT
