The thicker the endometrium, the better the neonatal outcomes?

ABSTRACT:

Study question

Is endometrial thickness (EMT) on the hCG trigger day related to the neonatal outcome of a single birth after fresh embryo transfer (ET)?

Summary answer

An EMT ≤7.8 mm was an independent predictor for greater odds of preterm delivery (PTD) of singletons born after fresh ET.

What is known already

There may be a positive association between live birth rates and EMT after fresh ET. It is still unknown whether a similar association is seen for the neonatal outcomes of singletons in fresh cycles.

Study design size duration

This retrospective study involved singleton live births in women undergoing autologous IVF cycles during the period from 1 October 2016 to 31 July 2021.

Participants/materials setting methods

A total of 2010 women who fulfill
