METHODS: This observational, cohort study was conducted at a referral IVF unit. Couples undergoing IVF treatment during the COVID-19 vaccination period were recruited from March-April 2021. The study compared 38 women who had received the Pfizer mRNA COVID-19 vaccination to 10 women who had not and were not infected by the virus. We also compared pre- and post-vaccination IVF treatments for 24 women. The relation between serologic titers and IVF treatment outcomes was also assessed.
RESULTS: No significant difference was found between the vaccinated and unvaccinated/uninfected groups regarding the main outcome measures. However, there was a trend toward a higher pregnancy rate for the unvaccinated group (57% vs. 23%, p = 0.078) but no difference in delivery rate (p = 0.236), gestational week (p = 0.537) or birth rate (p = 0.671).
CONCLUSIONS: We cautiously state that the COVID-19 mRNA vaccine does not affect fertility outcomes, including fertilization, pregnancy and delivery rates, obstetric outcomes, and semen parameters, regardless of measured IgG levels.
方法:这种观察,队列研究在转诊IVF病房进行.从2021年3月至4月招募了在COVID-19疫苗接种期间接受IVF治疗的夫妇。该研究比较了38名接受过辉瑞mRNACOVID-19疫苗接种的女性和10名没有感染过这种病毒的女性。我们还比较了24名女性接种前和接种后的IVF治疗方法。还评估了血清学滴度与IVF治疗结果之间的关系。
结果:在主要结果测量方面,在接种和未接种/未感染组之间没有发现显着差异。然而,未接种疫苗组有更高的妊娠率趋势(57%vs.23%,p=0.078),但交货率没有差异(p=0.236),孕周(p=0.537)或出生率(p=0.671)。
结论:我们谨慎声明,COVID-19mRNA疫苗不会影响生育结局,包括受精,妊娠率和分娩率,产科结果,和精液参数,无论测量的IgG水平。
