Background before referral

The patient had undergone surgery for ovarian endometriotic cysts and had previously completed five IVF attempts across three centers in Thailand. The referral history described declining ovarian reserve, with an AMH result of 0.3 ng/mL.

The INCITA pathway involved three retrievals, with separate decisions about chromosome screening and whether to proceed to transfer after each result.

INCITA retrievalEggs retrievedBlastocystsNormal screening findingsNext step described
First961Transfer did not result in pregnancy.
Second981No transfer was performed from this retrieval at that stage.
Third861A subsequent transfer resulted in pregnancy.

The first transfer outcome did not end the treatment sequence. The next two retrievals produced further embryos, with testing reviewed before the next transfer decision. The second retrieval’s normal screening result did not lead immediately to a transfer; embryo development and transfer were therefore distinct milestones in this history.

Later follow-up

The case records that a child had been born by the time the account was published. It remains one patient’s multi-retrieval history, rather than three separate success stories.

Planning around previous treatment

For a consultation after several cycles, keep the findings in chronological order: eggs, maturity and fertilization where known, blastocyst development, the type of genetic test, and transfer follow-up. These details help the team understand what happened at each stage.
