If you have unexplained infertility, what are your chances of ultimately having a baby—either through infertility treatment or natural conception? We talk with Dr. Denis Vaughan, a board-certified Reproductive Endocrinologist at Boston IVF and a Clinical Instructor at Harvard Medical School. He was the principal investigator on the study "Long-term reproductive outcomes in patients with unexplained infertility".
In this episode, we cover:
- What year was the original FASTT trial and what were the findings?
- What is unexplained infertility and how common is it?
- Did most of the women try to conceive after the original FASTT trial?
- How did the women who agree to participate in this follow-up study compare to the original FASTT participants? Was there a difference between those who participated in the follow-up and those who did not?
- What percentage of the women were successful at conception with IUI? IVF? Natural conception?
- What percentage tried to conceive with donor egg?
- What percentage adopted?
- If the woman had conceived via fertility treatment in the original FASTT trial is she more likely to conceive successfully in the future?
- Some speculate that a significant proportion of unexplained infertility is due to un-diagnosed endometriosis. Did this follow-up study shed light on that question?
- Did many of the women after the original FASTT study receive a more definitive diagnosis of why they were not able to conceive?
- What did the study show about patient satisfaction with their family building process and ultimate family size?
- What did we learn about conception with unexplained infertility as a result of the follow-up to the FASTT study?
