Effect of a woman's smoking status on oocyte, zygote, and day 3 pre-embryo quality in in vitro fertilization and embryo transfer program
2008
In the present study we investigated the effect of a woman's smoking status on the quality of the oocyte, zygote, and on day 3 pre-embryo, as well as the likelihood of achieving an ongoing pregnancy at 8 weeks. Smokers presented a higher number of nonfertilized oocytes than nonsmokers (20.1% vs. 10.8% of fertilization failure), by comparable clinical pregnancy rate for smokers (40.8%; 28/72) and for nonsmokers (39.2%; 23/58).
