Two clinical pregnancies following intracytoplasmic sperm injection of spermatozoa from frozen-thawed testicular biopsies in two azoospermic men are reported. The use of spermatozoa from cryopreserved testicular tissue is therefore a viable option for azoospermic men, as our results indicate that pregnancies is achievable in these cases.

Success Rates of Assisted Reproduction for Men With Cystic Fibrosis.

Department of Respiratory Medicine, Manchester Adult Cystic Fibrosis Centre, North West Lung Centre, Wythenshawe Hospital, Manchester University NHS Foundation Trust, Manchester, UK.
Background: The vast majority of men with CF (mwCF) are infertile. Improvements in assisted reproductive technology (ART) have made it possible for these patients to become biological fathers.
Methods: Data were examined for all male CF patients attending a large adult CF center over a 23-year period.
Gonadotropin Releasing Hormone Agonists Combined with Hormone Replacement Therapy Significantly Improves Reproductive Outcomes for Patients with Thin Endometrium and Intramural Fibroids in Frozen Embryo Transfer Cycles.

People's Hospital of Zhengzhou University, Zhengzhou, Henan, 45003, People's Republic of China.
Background: Both intramural myomas and thin endometrium exert a detrimental influence on the outcomes of assisted reproductive technology (ART). The downregulation of gonadotropin releasing hormone agonists (GnRH-a) is regarded as an effective approach to reducing the size of intramural fibroids and enhancing endometrial receptivity. Consequently, we conducted this study to assess whether the GnRH-a combined with hormone replacement therapy (GnRH-a-HRT) can improve reproductive outcomes in frozen embryo transfer cycles for patients with a thin endometrium (≤7 mm) and intramural fibroids.

Reproductive Obstetrics and Gynecology Center of the Second Affiliated Hospital, Nanjing Medical University, 210028, Nanjing, China.
Background: The safety and effectiveness of short-term insemination remain a subject of controversy. This study aims to investigate the impact of short-term insemination on both embryo quality and pregnancy outcomes and whether it is necessary to apply short-term insemination to all patients underwent in vitro fertilization (IVF).
Methods: A retrospective analysis was conducted on 3,496 patients from two centers over the period January 2016 to December 2022.
Aim: Within the in vitro fertilization (IVF) process, to evaluate the possibility of using the state of the meiotic spindle of oocytes as an indicator of maturity in order to optimize the timing of vitrification.
Patients And Methods: In the presented report, the cause of couple infertility was a combination of a 38-year-old female and 43-year-old male with azoospermia, which was an indication for oocyte vitrification. Oocyte polar bodies and optically birefringent meiotic spindles were visualized by polarized light microscopy and their states and relative positions were used as indicators of oocyte maturation, i.
Objective: We aimed to compare highly purified human menopausal gonadotropin (hp-hMG) and recombinant follicle stimulating hormone (rFSH) in short antagonist in vitro fertilization (IVF) cycles of patients with poor ovarian reserve (POR). Limited research exists on this comparison in short antagonist cycles for this patient group.
Materials And Methods: This retrospective cohort study involved 165 POR patients aged 18-45 years who underwent IVF between 2018 and 2022.
