The PPOS protocol mitigates the detrimental effects of high BMI on embryo and clinical pregnancy outcomes
By utilizing the PPOS protocol, women with a high BMI exhibit comparable outcomes in terms of embryo and clinical pregnancies. However, an elevated BMI is associated with an increased risk of miscarriage, leading to a lower LBR. Adopting appropriate endometrial preparation protocols such as natural cycles and letrozole stimulation cycles may potentially offer benefits in reducing miscarriages.
