Abstract:

Recurrent implantation failure (RIF) is a distressing and frustrating entity which means failure to achieve a clinical pregnancy after transfer of at least four good-quality embryos in a minimum of three fresh or frozen cycles in a woman under the age of 40 years. It mainly depends on embryonic and uterine factors. Embryonic factors include poor-quality oocyte, poor-quality spermatozoa and parental chromosomal anomalies. Uterine factors include uterine cavity abnormalities/pathologies and immunological factors. Embryonic factors are managed by selecting proper ovarian stimulation protocol, better selection of sperms by ICS or IMSI and better selection of embryo by performing blastocyst or sequential transfer, assisted hatching, preimplantation genetic screening (PGS), by using embryoscope etc. Uterine factors are managed by performing diagnostic or operative hysteroscopy, providing medical treatment to improve endometrial lining and also providing immunotherapy. In our center, in failure cases, after proper counseling, we perform pre IVF hysteroscopy, give immunotherapy in the form of IV immunoblobulins, perform ICSI, assisted hatching, sequential transfer and also offer PGS in some cases. Success rate can improve in women with recurrent implantation failure if embryonic and uterine factors are managed well.
