A Randomized Clinical Trial Comparing Embryo Euploidy Rates Following Ultrashort Versus Standard Abstinence
Sponsor: UConn Health
Summary
This research is being done to determine if producing sperm after an ultrashort period of abstinence (1 hour of abstinence) will be effective in improving the rates of embryos with normal chromosomes (structures that carry genetic information) during in vitro fertilization (IVF) treatment. The investigators hypothesize that a shorter period of abstinence is effective at improving rates of normal chromosomes among embryos.
Official title: A Double-Blinded Prospective Randomized Clinical Trial Comparing Euploidy Rates Among Embryos Created From Sibling Oocytes Exposed to Sperm After Ultrashort Abstinence Compared With Standard Abstinence
