Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to test whether sexual intercourse the night after embryo transfer affects thawed embryo implantation rates. Women undergoing one of their first four frozen embryo transfers with a good quality embryo will be randomly assigned to two groups. The study group is subjected to have intercourse without using a condom at the evening/night after the embryo transfer, while the control group will abstain from intercourse for the next 48 hours after the transfer. Researchers will compare the ongoing pregnancy rates between the intervention group and the control group.
