5. Study Description
Brief Summary
Intralipid infusion can improve outcome in women with recurrent Intracytoplasmic sperm injection ( ICSI) failure due to elevated TH1 cytokine response.
Detailed Description
Infertile patients undergoing Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection (ICSI) cycle with history of repeated implantation failure, intralipid will be given to the intervention group.
The primary outcome measure is the clinical pregnancy rate, secondary outcome measures implantation rate, ongoing pregnancy rate, abortion rate.
