Fertility after ectopic pregnancy: the DEMETER randomized trial
cumulative fertility curves were not significantly different between medical treatment and conservative surgery. Cumulative fertility curves were not significantly different between conservative and radical surgery.
Elective cryopreservation of all embryos with subsequent cryothaw embryo transfer in patients at risk for ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome reduces th
This preliminary study suggests that elective cryopreservation of all embryos in patients with elevated peak serum E2 for subsequent cryothaw ET in cycles with a better physiologic hormonal milieu may reduce the odds of SGA and preeclampsia in IVF singleton deliveries.
Season of Conception in Rural Gambia Affects DNA Methylation at Putative Human Metastable Epialleles
Throughout most of the mammalian genome, genetically regulated developmental programming establishes diverse yet predictable epigenetic states across differentiated cells and tissues. At metastable epialleles (MEs), conversely, epigenotype is established stochastically in the early embryo then maintained in differentiated lineages, resulting in dramatic and systemic interindividual variation in epigenetic regulation
Both genetic and environmental factors impact epigenetic marks, generating phenotypic variation that ranges from normal variation to human disease. Aberrant epigenetic patterning can lead to a variety of human disorders, including subfertility and imprinting disorders.
Tiny Piece of RNA Keeps 'Clock' Running in Earliest Stages of Life
New research shows that a tiny piece of RNA has an essential role in ensuring that embryonic tissue segments form properly. The study, conducted in chicken embryos, determined that this piece of RNA regulates cyclical gene activity that defines the timing of the formation of tissue segments that later become muscle and vertebrae.
Coffee and Tea During Pregnancy Affect Fetal Growth
Drinking just two cups of coffee a day is associated with the risk of low birth weight. Researchers at Sahlgrenska Academy, University of Gothenburg, Sweden, have conducted a study on 59,000 women in collaboration with the Norwegian Institute of Public Health.
The progesterone-only mini pill may increase a woman's chances of contracting chlamydia, Australian researchers say. The warning follows their discovery of a protein that protects against the sexually transmitted disease, but which is affected by increased progesterone levels.
Human Y Chromosome Much Older Than Previously Thought
The discovery and analysis of an extremely rare African American Y chromosome pushes back the time of the most recent common ancestor for the Y chromosome lineage tree to 338,000 years ago. This time predates the age of the oldest known anatomically modern human fossils.
Cornell University researchers have discovered a likely origin of epithelial ovarian cancer (ovarian carcinoma), the fifth leading cause of cancer death among women in the United States.
A new University of Iowa study confirms what many women have long suspected - that pregnancy permanently changes the size and shape of a woman's feet.Flat feet are a common problem for pregnant women. The arch of the foot flattens out, possibly due to the extra weight and increased looseness (laxity) of the joints associated with pregnancy. The new study, published in the March issue of the American Journal of Physical Medicine & Rehabilitation,
Cancer Doesn't Change Young Girls' Desire to Have Children, Study Shows
Researchers at Moffitt Cancer Center and colleagues have found that healthy adolescent females have predetermined expectations for becoming parents in the future, but have concerns about fertility and childbearing should they develop a life-threatening illness, such as cancer.
Epigenetics Mechanism May Help Explain Effects of Mom's Nutrition On Her Children's Health
Pioneering studies by U. S. Department of Agriculture-funded research molecular geneticist Robert A. Waterland are helping explain how the foods that soon-to-be-moms eat in the days and weeks around the time of conception - or what's known as periconceptional nutrition-may affect the way genes function in her children, and her children's health.
Fertility After Ectopic Pregnancy: First Randomised Trial Finds Reassuring Evidence On the Effect of Different Treatments
The first randomised trial to compare treatments for ectopic pregnancies has found no significant differences in subsequent fertility between medical treatment and conservative surgery on one hand, and conservative or radical surgery on the other.
01.IVF treatment
With 15% of Australian couples facing a fertility problem, overcoming infertility has become big business. While there are a variety of treatment options, including natural treatment options, timed intercourse, surgery and hormone treatment, quitting smoking and going on a diet might also work.
In-vitro fertilisation is one of the most invasive treatments, but also very effective for cases that can’t be resolved with less
Natural fertility. There is a growing trend for couples to try natural methods to help conceive a baby. This may be undertaken as an exclusive way to treat infertility or used in combination with fertility medical treatments. Taking a natural approach may entail attending a specialised natural fertility clinic or seeking the advice of a practitioner such as a Chinese herbalist and acupuncturist.

Use of Robots for Hysterectomy Soars, but with Little Benefit
Robotically assisted hysterectomy increased dramatically from 2007 to 2010, despite higher cost and similar complication rates compared with laparoscopic procedures, a review of data from more than 400 hospitals showed
Taking folic acid supplements around the time of conception may lower the risk of autistic disorder in the offspring, an observational study showed. Compared with women not using the supplements, those taking a folic acid supplement from 4 weeks before to 8 weeks after conception were less likely to have a child later diagnosed with autistic disorder (0.1% versus 0.21%: OR 0.61, 95% CI 0.41 to 0.90), according to Pål Surén, MD, MPH, of the Norweg
Having an obese mother may alter early fetal brain development, a gene expression analysis suggested. Second trimester amniotic fluid showed significantly lower expression of genes involved in the normal process of central nervous system (CNS) apoptosis that makes room for neurons, Andrea Edlow, MD, of Tufts Medical Center in Boston, and colleagues found.
SAN FRANCISCO - Frozen embryos yielded better birth outcomes on some measures compared with fresh embryos in vitro fertilization, but there were some concerning signals of big babies and excess early mortality, a Nordic population-based study indicated.
Extremely High Estrogen Levels May Underlie Complications of Single-Birth IVF Pregnancies
Two papers published in the journal Fertility and Sterility support the hypothesis that extremely high estrogen levels at the time of embryo transfer increase the risk that infants will be born small for their gestational age and the risk of preeclampsia, a dangerous condition that can threaten the lives of both mother and child. They also outline a protocol that reduced those risks in a small group of patients.
A research team of the University of Freiburg has elucidated the molecular control mechanisms that transform the initially tightly cohesive earliest cells of the zebrafish embryo so that the first major cell migration in their development is initiated.
