Comparing pregnancy outcomes using an endometrial receptivity array (ERA) prior to frozen embryo transfer (FET) with euploid embryos

The receptivity of the uterus for implantation is determined by a complex interplay of various maternal and embryonic factors. The window of implantation refers to the time period in which a mid-secretory phase endometrium is primed to accept a blastocyst stage embryo. Recent advances in next generation sequencing have allowed for development of tests which can reliably identify the state of the endometrial lining and test for “endometrial receptivity”, although their clinical applicability in IVF for improving pregnancy rates has not yet been fully investigated.
