Cycles of in vitro maturation (IVM) of oocytes show asynchrony between embryo development and endometrial receptivity.
40
Clinical outcomes after IVM are lower compared to conventional ovarian stimulation, mainly due to lower embryo quality.
211
IVM is based on the collection of immature cumulus-oocyte complexes (COCs) from antral follicles, subsequently cultured in vitro until they reach the metaphase II (MII) stage
212
A variation of IVM is the “Rescue-IVM” protocol, which involves the maturation of immature COCs collected after a conventional in vitro fertilization (IVF) cycle, with a standard controlled ovarian stimulation protocol and in vivo human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) maturation triggering.
