5. Study Description
Brief Summary
It was proven that the Cytokine granulocyte-Macrophage clony stimulating factor had been found naturally in reproductive tract so our target is to test its effect if added to embryo transfer medium.
Detailed Description
The IVF embryo transfer media design and upgrade underwent many ideas during the last 3 decades, we suppose that adding Cytokine GM-CSF as an endometrial modifier to already proven successful medium hyaluronan enriched medium to test the efficacy ipon pregnancy and implantation rate in vitro so we decide to design a trial to compare the clinical outcome by sibling embryo to be transferred into 2 groups and the same culture condition but with one arm with Cytokine and the other is traditional one and closely monitor the outcome within the 2 arms and record the results.
