Uterine factors modify the association between embryo transfer depth and clinical pregnancy.

ABSTRACT: The embryo transfer depth may affect the chance of pregnancy. However, embryo dislodging caused by uterine contraction may occur after the transfer. The aim of the retrospective study was to investigate whether the factors associated with uterine contractilities, such as endometrial thickness and progesterone elevation, affect the association between transfer depth and implantation. A total of 7849 fresh transfer cycles on conventional stimulation in a single in vitro fertilization (IVF) center during the period 2013-2015 was reviewed. Patients were categorized according to quartiles of embryo transfer depth (≤ 9 mm, n = 1735, 9.1-11 mm, n = 2557, 11.1-14 mm, n = 1933, ≥ 1.4 mm, n = 1624, respectively). Adjusted for confounding factors, the adjusted odds ratio (aOR) (95% confidence interva
