Summary

Infertility affects around 15 % of couples in their reproductive years. Even though the use of assisted reproductive technologies (ART) in aforementioned couples is increasing, their success rate is still relatively low. Hence it is important to identify and better understand potential modifiable dietary and lifestyle risk factors that may influence the success of ART. This study will include women undergoing IVF with a view to investigating the relationship between preconception dietary patterns, body composition, physical activity level, serum values of vitamin B9, vitamin B12 and vitamin D and the outcomes of IVF, such as the number of obtained oocytes, fertilization rate and clinical pregnancy. Main hypothesis is that women undergoing IVF, who eat a balanced diet, maintain healthy body weight and have adequate serum levels of vitamin B9, vitamin B12 and vitamin D, have a higher chance of achieving better IVF outcomes.
