BackgroundThe aim of this study was to determine whether there is a difference in pregnancy rates between groups that we removed directly and removed by rotating the embryo transfer catheter 360°.MethodsThe study group consisted of 552 patients who were withdrawn by 360° rotation and 797 patients who were withdrawn without catheter rotation. All patients underwent one or two fresh ETs on day 3 or 5. Groups were compared in terms of cycle characteristics and clinical pregnancy rates.ResultsThere were no significant differences in demographic and clinical characteristics of both groups, such as age, body mass index (BMI), duration of infertility, causes of infertility, and basal hormone levels. Clinicals pregnancy rate, in the study group, 48% (265/552) and in the control group, 50.8% (405/797) were similar in both groups. When the implantation rate and miscarriage rate were examined, both groups were found to be similar.ConclusionIt was found that 360° rotation while pulling catheter during embryo transfer had no effect on pregnancy and clinical pregnancy.Copyright © 2021, the Chinese Medical Association.
