Popis: | Objective During controlled ovarian stimulation in IVF, supraphysiologic levels of estradiol (E2) have been associated with poor placentation and adverse pregnancy outcomes. This study aimed to investigate whether high peak E2 on the day of human chorionic gonadotropin trigger is associated with low pregnancy-associated plasma protein-A (PAPP-A) and adverse perinatal outcomes. Methods We performed a retrospective cohort study at a private, university-affiliated fertility centre in Vancouver, BC. We enrolled 216 patients with a singleton pregnancy after fresh embryo transfer who also underwent first trimester screening. Adverse perinatal outcomes were collected from a local registry and included preterm birth, hypertension in pregnancy, antepartum hemorrhage, intrauterine growth restriction, SGA, stillbirth, admission to the NICU, and neonatal death. Results High serum E2 (≥13 035 pmol/L) at controlled ovarian stimulation was not correlated with low PAPP-A ( P = 0.46). When each adverse outcome was analysed separately, there was no association between high E2 and any of the outcomes ( P > 0.05 for all). High peak E2 was not associated with a total composite of maternal and neonatal adverse birth outcomes ( P = 0.30). Conclusion Our results do not support the theory that high E2 at fresh embryo transfer impedes placentation. We found no association between peak E2 and low PAPP-A levels or adverse pregnancy outcomes. |
