Conditions
Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Implantation rate
Number of gestational sacs demonstrated on ultrasound divided by the number of embryos transferred (expressed as percentage)
Five to six weeks following embryo transfer
Secondary Outcomes (2)
Chemical pregnancy
Five to six weeks following embryo transfer
Early spontaneous abortion
Up to 15 weeks from embryo transfer
Study Arms (2)
Assisted hatching
EXPERIMENTALFive-day frozen embryos will undergo assisted hatching prior to embryo transfer
Control
NO INTERVENTIONFive-day frozen embryos will not undergo any additional procedures prior to embryo transfer
Interventions
Controlled hatching of the zona pellucida in the laboratory prior to embryo transfer
