The Influence Of Intrauterine Pressure On Embryo Retention In A Catheter After Embryo Transfer

Abstract The retention of the embryo in the transfer catheter after embryo transfer (ET) during in vitro fertilization is a very common phenomenon, encountered by even the most experienced operators, and embryos retained in the transfer catheter or its sleeve require a repeat transfer. The exact mec...
