Effect of endometrial preparation protocols on the risk of ectopic pregnancy for frozen embryo transfer
Abstract Studies have consistently reported a significantly reduced incidence of ectopic pregnancy (EP) for frozen-thawed embryo transfer (ET) cycles compared with fresh cycles. However, only a few studies reported an association between endometrial preparation protocols on EP and results were confl...

Abstract Studies have consistently reported a significantly reduced incidence of ectopic pregnancy (EP) for frozen-thawed embryo transfer (ET) cycles compared with fresh cycles. However, only a few studies reported an association between endometrial preparation protocols on EP and results were conflicting. A registry-based retrospective cohort study of 153,354 clinical pregnancies following frozen single ETs between 2014 and 2017 were conducted, of which 792 cases of EP (0.52%) were reported. Blastocyst embryo transfers accounted for 87% of the total sample and were significantly associated with a decreased risk for EP compared with early cleavage ET (0.90% vs. 0.46%, adjusted OR = 0.50, 95% CI, 0.41 to 0.60). Compared with natural cycles, hormone replacement cycles (HRC) demonstrated a similar risk for EP (0.53% vs. 0.47%, adjusted OR = 1.12, 95% CI, 0.89 to 1.42).
