Objectives To determine if the presence of microorganisms in follicular fluid of women undergoing in vitro fertilization-embryo transfer (IVF-ET) adversely affects the outcome of the treatment cycles. Methods Follicular fluid was collected from 86 women enrolled for IVF-ET at the National Hospital, Abuja from June 1, 2018 to December 1, 2018. Microscopy imaging and cultures were performed to identify bacteria and fungi in the follicular fluid and the vagina. Women with follicular fluid microorganisms were the test group while the controls were those without follicular fluid microorganisms. Fertilization and pregnancy rates were subsequently determined and their association with the presence of follicular fluid microorganisms was assessed using univariable and multivariable logistic regression modelling. Results The mean age and mean Body Mass Index (BMI) of the participants were 35(± 3.5) years and 28(± 4.9) kg/m2 respectively. Bacteria and fungi were isolated in 17% of the follicular fluid samples collected (n = 15/86). Most common isolates were Streptococcus spp. (n = 4/15), Staphylococcus aureus (n = 7/15), Enterococcus spp. (n = 4/15), Lactobacillus species (n = 2/15) and Candida albicans (n = 2/15). There was no statistically significant difference in the fertilization rates (adjusted odds ratio [AdjOR] 0.55, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.04–7.34; P = 0.10) and pregnancy rates (AdjOR 4.02, 95% CI 0.56–28.92; P = 0.19) between the group of women with positive follicular fluid bacterial /fungal colonization as compared against those with negative follicular fluid colonization. Conclusion Isolation of microorganisms from follicular fluid did not adversely affect fertilization and pregnancy rates following IVF-ET treatment cycles at the fertility centre of National Hospital, Abuja.

AbstractObjectiveTo determine the role of Anti-Mullerian Hormone (AMH) in predicting fertilization and pregnancy rates following in vitro fertilization-embryo transfer (IVF-ET) and intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) treatment cycles.MethodsThis was a prospective cohort study of one hundred and fifty consecutive women undergoing IVF-ET/ICSI that were recruited from February 1, 2017 to October 31, 2018 at the Fertility centre of the National Hospital, Abuja, Nigeria. Participants’ plasma AMH were assayed and were followed up till achieving fertilization and pregnancy. Association between AMH levels, fertilization and pregnancy rates was assessed using univariable and multivariable logistic regression modelling to adjust for confounding variables.ResultsThe mean age and mean AMH level of the participants were 36 ± 4.2 years and 1.74 ± 2.35ng/ml respectively. There was a statistically significant association between AMH level and age (P <0.001), duration of infertility (P =0.026), cause of infertility (P =0.035), number of oocytes retrieved (P =<0.001), number of embryos generated (P =<0.001) and type of treatment (P =<0.001). However, there was no significant difference in the fertilization rates (adjusted odds ratio [AdjOR] 0.36, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.23–4.30; P =0.533) and pregnancy rates (AdjOR 0.26, 95% CI 0.04–2.00; P =0.210) at different plasma levels of AMH.ConclusionPlasma AMH level was not a predictor of fertilization and pregnancy rates among our cohort of patients who had IVF/ICSI treatment cycles.
