Ovarian Stimulation for In Vitro Fertilization and Long-term Risk of Breast Cancer
Among women undergoing fertility treatment in the Netherlands between 1980 and 1995, IVF treatment compared with non-IVF treatment was not associated with increased risk of breast cancer after a median follow-up of 21 years. Breast cancer risk among IVF-treated women was also not significantly different from that in the general population. These findings are consistent with absence of a significant increase in long-term risk of breast cancer amon
What women want in their sperm donor: A study of more than 1000 women’s sperm donor selections
Women choose younger and more highly educated sperm donors faster-
Education may be a proxy for resources even in the absence of paternal investment-Behavioural research in reproductive medical settings is in its infancy. The sperm donor market is a relevant and high stakes domain for behavioural research.
Presence of HHV-6A in Endometrial Epithelial Cells from Women with Primary Unexplained Infertility
The analysis of uterine flushing samples showed an increase in IL-10 levels and a decrease of IFN-gamma concentrations in infertile women with HHV6-A infection. Our study indicates, for the first time, that HHV-6A infection might be an important factor in female unexplained infertility development, with a possible role in modifying endometrial NK cells immune profile and ability to sustain a successful pregnancy.
How lifestyle intervention for weight loss affects birth rates in women with a high BMI
Women who are overweight or obese pose an ongoing challenge for the fertility clinic. Many studies show that these patients are at increased risk of infertility and are less likely than normal-weight women to conceive after fertility treatment.
Endometrial scratch appears beneficial in couples trying to conceive
There is a much disputed claim that 'injury' to the lining of the uterus - whether inadvertent or deliberate - increases the chance of embryo implantation and thus the chance of pregnancy in certain groups of women having IVF.
Three in four women starting fertility treatment will have a baby within five years
Three in four women starting fertility treatment will have a baby within five years, whether as a result of the treatment or following natural conception. The figures emerged from a large cohort study analysing the birth records of almost 20,000 women having fertility treatment in Denmark between 2007 and 2010. The majority of these women (57%) had their baby as a result of the treatment, but a significant proportion (14%) conceived spontaneously
Obscure virus found in women with unexplained infertility
The little-known member of the human herpesvirus family called HHV-6A infects the lining of the uterus in 43 percent of women with unexplained infertility but cannot be found in that of fertile women, researchers have discovered. The study also reported that the infection is exacerbated by hormone estradiol. Estradiol fluctuates with the menstrual cycle. High levels may trigger an active infection localized in the uterus.
Still no strong evidence that adjunctive treatment with human growth hormone in IVF improves results
Despite its occasional use as an adjunct in IVF, human growth hormone appears of little benefit to women having difficulty conceiving. Indeed, in an Australian/New Zealand collaborative placebo-controlled randomised trial, live birth rates were no better in poor-responding patients (under the age of 41) given growth hormone as a supplement than in those given placebo.
Young and well educated men in demand as sperm donors in global life market
With commercial sperm banking giving women more opportunities to become mothers, a world-first QUT study has found the age and education of sperm donors are the most important characteristics considered.
