Objective To compare in vitro fertilization (IVF) outcomes between fresh embryo transfer (ET) and frozen-thawed ET (the “freeze-all” policy), with fresh ET performed only in cases without progesterone (P) elevation. Design Prospective, observational, cohort study. Setting Private IVF center. Patient(s) A total of 530 patients submitted to controlled ovarian stimulation (COS) with a gonadotropin-releasing hormone–antagonist protocol, and cleavage-stage, day-3 ET. Intervention(s) None. Main Outcome Measure(s) Ongoing pregnancy rates. Result(s) A total of 530 cycles were included in the analysis: 351 in the fresh ET group (when P levels were =1.5 ng/mL on the trigger day); and 179 cycles in the freeze-all group (ET performed after endometrial priming with estradiol valerate, at 6 mg/d, taken orally). For the fresh ET group vs. the freeze-all group, respectively, the implantation rate was 19.9% and 26.5%; clinical pregnancy rate was 35.9% and 46.4%; and ongoing pregnancy rate was 31.1% and 39.7%. Conclusion(s) The IVF outcomes were significantly better in the group using the freeze-all policy, compared with the group using fresh ET. These results suggest that even in a select group of patients that underwent fresh ET (P levels =1.5 ng/mL), endometrial receptivity may have been impaired by COS, and outcomes may be improved by using the freeze-all policy.
