Comparative study of transferring frozen embryo with short culture vresus overnight culture and also assess prevalence rate of psychological distress amongs infertility patient

Abstract

Frozen embryo transfer is a procedure which is widely preferable technique to transfer of embryos obtained in assisted reproductive technology. The transfer of cryopreserved embryos transfer which is less expensive than the second fresh cycle, fertility treatment costs, can get an increased implantation rate, and an increased rate of pregnancy. The primary negative emotional reaction to both infertility and assisted reproductive therapy is typically either anxiety or depression. To compare serum β-hCG value in fresh frozen-thawed embryo transfer with overnight cultured frozen-thawed embryo transfer. And prevalence rate of psychological distress. 52 FET Cycles performed in between June to December 2018 among these embryos transfer 36 were performed within 1 hour after thawing and 16 were performed after overnight incubation. We observed that patient in 1 hour incubation has higher β-hCG level than overnight culture patients and there is worse psychological status in infertile women and nearly half of our infertile sample (51.9%) displayed mild to extreme depressive symptoms. Obstetricians should consider that reducing the mental and social issues will lead to greater happiness and productivity.
