Healio (7/31, Welsh) says, “Women with asymptomatic or mild COVID-19 infection at the time of frozen embryo transfer did not experience significant adverse early pregnancy outcomes, researchers reported.” After conducting “a retrospective analysis of 709 cases of women undergoing frozen embryo transfer from October 2022 to January 2023,” investigators “observed no significant differences in ongoing pregnancy rates, biochemical pregnancy rates and clinical pregnancy rates for uninfected women, women infected 60 days or more before frozen embryo transfer, women infected less than 60 days before frozen embryo transfer or for women infected 0 to 14 days after frozen embryo transfer.” The findings were published in BMC Pregnancy and Childbirth.
