Summary

This is a randomised controlled trial on the effect of endometrial injury in the cycle preceding the frozen-thawed embryo transfer (FET) cycles. The study hypothesis is that endometrial injury will increase the ongoing pregnancy rate in FET cycles.

Conditions

  • Subfertility

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Endometrial biopsy

The procedure was performed in a standard approach using a Pipelle catheter (Pipelle de Cornier, Laboratoire C.C.D., France). The pipelle catheter was introduced through the cervix up to the uterine fundus. The piston was drawn back to the end of the sheath to create a negative pressure. The sheath was rotated and moved back and forth between the fundus and internal os for at least 3-4 times before it was gently withdrawn.

PROCEDURE

control procedure

Using pipelle catheter without entering the uterine cavity.

DEVICE

Pipelle catheter (Pipelle de Cornier, Laboratoire C.C.D., France)
