Risk factors associated with pregnancy loss after single euploid blastocysts transfer by Xiaohui Dong, Juanzi Shi, Xiaohua Liu, Danmeng Liu, Wei Li, Xiaoli Zhao, Xia Xue

“…Logistic regression analysis revealed that higher LH levels(OR=1.304, 95%CI=1.054-1.613, P=0.015), low E2 levels (OR=0.438, 95%CI=0.242-0.794, P=0.007) on trigger day of fresh cycle, maternal smoking(OR=4.574, 95%CI=1.974-10.601, P&lt;0.001), and day 6 blastocyst transfer(OR=4.610, 95%CI=1.907-11.141, P=0.001) appeared to be associated with increased risk of PL following the transfer of euploid embryos.ConclusionsMaternal smoking, day of blastocyst transferred, estradiol (E2) and Luteinizing hormone (LH) levels on trigger day of corresponding fresh cycle for transferred blastocysts are all associated with PL following transfer of euploid embryos.…”
