- Abstract
This article discusses a study that aimed to evaluate the presence of undiagnosed pelvic diseases in patients who underwent in vitro fertilization (IVF) and experienced recurrent implantation failure (RIF). The study used high-quality transvaginal sonography (TVS) performed by experts to assess the patients. The results showed that only 17% of patients had a normal pelvic scan after RIF, with a significant difference observed between the already known abnormal TVS group before IVF and the new diagnosis after RIF. The study suggests that expert TVS should be performed before the first embryo transfer and not just after RIF, as it could potentially lead to new diagnoses and improve the outcomes of IVF.
