The Significance of Serum CA-125 Level on the Live Birth Rates of In Vitro Fertilisation in Women with Endometriosis.

ABSTRACT: Background and Objectives: To evaluate the significance of serum CA-125 level on the live birth rate of in vitro fertilization (IVF) in women with endometriosis. Materials and Methods: This retrospective observational study included women with endometriosis who underwent one stimulated IVF cycle. Serum CA-125 levels were measured in archived serum samples collected prior to ovarian stimulation, on the day of ovulation trigger, and during frozen embryo transfer. Serum CA-125 levels were compared between cycles with and without a live birth in both stimulated IVF and frozen embryo transfer cycles, with a subgroup analysis using a cut-off of 35 IU/L. Results: Within the same patient undergoing the same IVF cycle, serum CA-125 level on the trigger day of the stimulated cyc
