Short-term vs. overnight insemination: which one is better for patients with only one or two oocytes retrieved in IVF cycles?

Key Points

• Short-term insemination shows no negative impacts on clinical live birth rates (CLBR) despite low oocyte yields.
• Potential benefits are noted for patients extending embryo culture to the blastocyst stage.
• Assessment involves IVF cycles with only one or two oocytes for insemination timing effects.
• Findings suggest reconsideration of insemination strategies may yield better outcomes for targeted patients.
