Creation, effects on embryo quality, and clinical outcomes of a new embryo culture medium with 31 optimized components derived from human oviduct fluid: A prospective multicenter randomized trial.

Purpose: Our aim is to make an ideal embryo culture medium close to human oviduct fluid (HOF) components, and to evaluate the quality of this medium with embryo quality and clinical outcomes in assisted reproductive technology (ART) by a prospective randomized controlled trial (RCT).

Methods: Study I: HOF was collected laparoscopically from patients (= 28) with normal pelvic findings. According to HOF analysis results, the new medium "HiGROW OVIT" (OVIT) was designed.
