Effect of Endometrial Biopsy in Assisted Reproduction Cycles Outcomes
Effect of Local Injury to the Endometrium on Endometrial Receptivity in Assisted Reproduction Cycles

The objective of this study is to compare the rates of implantation and pregnancy, and change in sonographic measurements of endometrial volume and vascularization in patients undergoing assisted reproduction cycles randomly assigned to the traditional treatment without previous manipulation of the endometrium and to the traditional treatment plus an endometrial biopsy in cycle prior to embryo transfer.
