Abstract
A group of 100 consecutive FERs from IVF patients were recruited prospectively, randomly assigned to day 2 or day 3 and a group of 54 consecutive FERs from ICSI patients whose cases were carried out during the same time period as IVF cycles were also recruited. The average ages for IVF were 34.8years and ICSI were 34.4 years. Oocytes collection was carried out by transvaginally ultrasound, Pronuclei check was done 18 to 24 hours later. 42 to 48 hours after egg collection, embryos was chosen for transfer in day 2 or day 3. Surplus embryos were frozen after IVF or ICSI. ln conclusion our results of FER using embryos derived from IVF and ICSI were not significantly different.
