  In vitro fertilization (IVF) involves making embryos outside of the human body, which has spurred debate about the status of the embryo, embryo research and donation. We explore couples’ perceptions about embryos and their thoughts and acceptability about various disposition decisions in Norway. Based on an ethnographic study including interviews and observations in an IVF clinic, we show that couples do not perceive their pre-implantation IVF embryos to be human lives; rather, they consider successful implantation the start of life. We suggest that this response indicates a change in the perception of the human embryo or the fertilised egg from incipient life—a viewpoint that was dominant in the discussions of embryo research in the 1980s and 1990s. We also show how this view of the pre-implantation embryo elucidates why donating embryos to research appears acceptable but donating to other infertile couples seems rather difficult. Before transfer to a woman’s uterus, the embryo exists in a liminality; it is not yet human life but a living cell with potential for both research and pregnancy. When an embryo is implanted and pregnancy is confirmed, human life activates; the embryo becomes potential kin, influencing couples’ struggles with donating embryos to other couples.

  Objective To evaluate whether endometrial molecular profiles distinguish subsets of patients according to clinical characteristics, and to infer dysregulated immune networks, by measuring cytokines, chemokines, and growth factors in endometrial biopsy specimens from a cohort of infertile women with a high incidence of endometriosis. Design Prospective cohort study. Setting Department of Gynecology at a university hospital. Patient(s) Patients undergoing laparoscopy for infertility assessment (n = 103). Intervention(s) Endometrial biopsies were performed during surgery. Fertility outcome and clinical parameters were registered preoperatively and after 6 months. Main Outcome Measure(s) The concentrations of 48 factors in endometrial biopsy specimens were analyzed with respect to clinical status in univariate and multivariate frameworks.

  This study was undertaken in order to compare pregnancy outcome after IVF and ICSI in unexplained and endometriosis-associated infertility using tubal factor infertility as controls. METHODS: This was a retrospective cohort study of early IVF/ICSI pregnancies verified by serum hCG measurement, comparing the subsequent outcome in unexplained (n = 274) and minimal endometriosis-associated (n = 212) with tubal factor (n = 540) infertility as controls. From January 1990 to December 2002, 1026 conception cycles after treatment with IVF or ICSI complied with the inclusion criteria. RESULTS: Live birth rate, twin birth rate after transfer of two embryos and abortion rate prior to 6 weeks of gestation were superior for the unexplained (78.8, 23.5 and 11.7%) compared to endometriosis-associated (66.0, 15.0 and 19.3%) and tubal factor (66.7, 18.1 and 18.0%) infertility groups (P < 0.05). Compared to the endometriosis-associated, the unexplained infertility group attained a higher pregnancy rate after the first treatment cycle (P < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS: The overall better outcome for the unexplained infertility group with respect to live birth rate, twin birth rate and early abortion rate compared to the minimal peritoneal endometriosis-associated and tubal factor infertility groups might be a guide to select diagnostic groups for single embryo transfer and be useful in patient counselling
