Whenever confronted with repeated ÃÂunexplained IVF failures where morphologically good embryos were transferred, the question arises as to whether the problem is due to inherent egg/embryo ÃÂincompetenceÃÂ (which usually equates with an irregular chromosomal configuration [aneuploidy]) or whether it is due to an implantation dysfunction. The younger the woman and the higher the quality of available embryos (preferably blastocysts), the less likely it is that the fault lies with embryo ÃÂincompetence ÃÂ and the greater is the likelihood that it is due to underlying implantation dysfunction. The most common causes of Implantation dysfunction are: a) Thin uterine lining ÃÂ b) a uterus with surface lesions in the cavity (polyps, fibroids, scar tissue) and c) immunologic implantation dysfunction (IID). It was detection of the underlying IID problem that enabled NJ and RJ to go from ÃÂinfertility to family
