Fertility outcomes in women undergoing Assisted Reproductive Treatments after COVID-19 vaccination: A prospective cohort study.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Vaccination against Coronavirus-19 disease (COVID-19) was widely administered from 2021 onwards. There is little information on how this vaccine affected fertility after assisted-reproductive-technology (ART). The aim of this study therefore was to determine if COVID-19 vaccination or time-since-vaccination influenced ART outcomes.

Materials and methods

In this prospective cohort study, 502 oocyte-retrieval-cycles and 582 subsequent embryo- transfer-cycles were grouped based on COVID-19 vaccine status of the female partner into those with no-exposure, 1-dose and ≥2-dose exposure. Within the exposed cohort, time-since-last-vaccination to embryotransfer- cycle (T_tr) was calculated in days. Main outcomes were mean-total-utilizable-embryos, mean-oocyteutili
