#ESHRE2020 UK Endoscratch study shows scratch did not increase live birth rate in first time IVF patients. Time to stop scratching to improve success rate!! @Ycheong1 @EshreReprEndo @metwally01 #ESHREvirtual
The Endometrial Scratch trial showed no benefit of the ‘scratch’ in women undergoing IVF for the first time. We would like to thank the trial participants and research staff in the 16 fertility centres for making this study possible @NIHRresearch @FertilityNUK @Shef_Research
