Abstract

Previous studies have found that though a triple-line (TL) endometrial echo pattern is uncommon in women using a graduated estradiol (E2)/progesterone (P) regimen, there is a trend for reduced live delivered pregnancy rates (LDPR) with advancing age. The decrease in LDPR may possibly have been related to embryos derived from somewhat less quality oocytes not being able to overcome a less than ideal endometrium for implantation as age advances, or possibly age causes an adverse effect on the endometrium, or both. The objective of the present study was to evaluate whether the TL mid-luteal pattern increases in frequency with advancing age. Furthermore, to test the endometrial factor and eliminate the egg quality factor, the study would evaluate the LDPR according to the three endometrial echo patterns using frozen-thawed embryos derived from donor eggs.
