Uitkomstmaten
Primaire uitkomstmaten
The main study parameters are steroid profile in endometrial tissue and serum, activity of steroid enzymes, percentage of natural killer (NK) cells with an activating phenotype, determination of the vaginal microbiome using the inter spacer bacterial profiling (ISpro) technique and volatile organic compounds.
Achtergrond van het onderzoek
Women with recurrent unexplained miscarriage (RM) and repeated implantation failure (RIF) are proposed to be at opposite ends of the implantation spectrum, with too receptive endometrium (implantation of genetically aberrant or poor quality embryos) versus too selective endometrium (no implantation even with genetically normal or good quality embryos). In both cases, no explanation for unsuccessful implantation has been found yet. Therefore, doctors can provide no therapeutic options other than supportive care on the way to a subsequent pregnancy.
The goal of this study is to elucidate whether there is a difference in endometrial parameters (determining endometrial receptivity) between women with reproductive failure: RIF and RM. Secondly we will investigate how the endometrial parameters of the women with RIF and unexplained RM compare with those of healthy, parous women to construct a receptivity profile for these women.
