First seen Jun 30, 2026 · Last updated Jul 01, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study looks at how sleep length and quality may affect the success of in vitro fertilization (IVF) in women. Participants will wear a ring-shaped device that tracks sleep patterns before and after a frozen embryo transfer. The goal is to see if sleep parameters like total sleep time and sleep efficiency are linked to pregnancy outcomes. Findings could help develop future treatments that improve sleep to enhance fertility.
