No increase in miscarriage for various subgroups in the study. Does the data here challenge the hypothesis of higher risk of miscarriage with poor sperm quality 🤔? #ESHREjc

Another issue is how to communicate lower treatment success rates. Many still prefer to pursue biological parenthood despite lower odds of success #ESHREjc

We would usually expect a higher FR for ICSI (indeed Vienna consensus includes this) as the denominator is mature eggs injected (rather than eggs inseminated…)

I’m struggling with table 2 - specifically fert rate (FR). I assume control (N) couples and those undertaking treatment with donor sperm were treated with IVF, whereas OAT-S and azoospermia-H (and MMF) were ICSI? Yet there isn’t a significant difference between these with PSM 🤔? #ESHREjc

Is anyone else blown away by the numbers treated at a single reproductive centre in this study? Nearly 15000 cycles in less than 5yrs!! 💪💪 #eshreJC
Differences seen in outcomes are unlikely to be attributable to different lab practices…
