Diagnostic Test for Endometrial Receptivity 24 Hours Before Embryo Transfer

March 6, 2017 updated by: Carlos Simon, Igenomix

Clinical Validation of a Diagnostic Test Which Measures the Endometrial Prostaglandins Liquid 24 Hours Before Embryo Transfer and That is Capable of Predicting a State of Endometrial Receptivity

This clinical validation study is being carried out to validate the efficacy of a test measuring the clinical application of prostaglandins present in the endometrial fluid in patients, 24 hours before the embryonic transfer. This test is capable of predicting endometrial receptivity without the need of performing a biopsy.
