Application of phloroglucinol injection in embryo transfer in patients with recurrent implantation failure / 中国医师杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the effect of phloroglucinol on pregnancy outcome in patients with recurrent implantation failure (RIF).Methods A total of 146 patients with RIF from March 2014 to March 2016 from the reproductive medical center of the Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region people's Hospital was randomly divided into two groups,73 cases were included in study group [16 cases of in vitro fertilization and embryo transfer (IVF-ET) and 57 cases of frozen/thawed embryo transfer (FET)].Patients in study group were given intramuscular injection of phloroglucino140mg,two times a day before the transplantation day to three days after transplantation,73 cases without phloroglucinol injection were included as control group.The biochemical pregnancy rate,clinical pregnancy rate,embryo implantation rate,abortion rate,ectopic pregnancy rate,multiple pregnancy rate and live birth rate were compared between two groups.Results The biochemical pregnancy rate in study group of FET was significantly higher than the control group (57.9％ vs 36.8％,P ＜0.05);the biochemical pregnancy rate in study group of IVF-ET was higher than the control group (50％ vs 37.5％,P ＞ 0.05),but there was no significant difference between the study group and control group;compared to the control group,the study group was increased clinical pregnancy rate,implantation rate,live birth rate,and decreased abortion rate (P ＞ 0.05),but the difference was not statistically significant.Conclusions The application of phloroglucinol in women with RIF may improve the biochemical pregnancy rate,especially in FET cycles.
