Summary

The hypothesis of this randomized double blind study is that the live birth rates are significantly higher after the use of atosiban prior to the embryo transfer in patients undergoing in vitro fertilization (IVF) treatment. This study aims to compare the live birth rates of IVF treatment between patients receiving atosiban and placebo prior to the transfer.

Conditions

  • Subfertility

Interventions

DRUG

Atosiban

Patients in the atosiban group will receive intravenous atosiban 30 min before the transfer with a bolus dose of 6.75 mg, and the infusion will be continued with an infusion rate of 18 mg/h. After performing ET, the dose of atosiban will be reduced to 6 mg/h and the infusion will be continued for 2 hours (total administered dose: 37.5 mg). Those in the placebo group will receive normal saline only.
