New study tests gentler surgery for pregnancy loss after IVF
NCT ID NCT07143578
First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study compares two surgical methods—hysteroscopy and suction curettage—for treating early pregnancy loss in women who conceived through IVF. The goal is to see which method causes fewer uterine scars (adhesions) and leads to better future fertility. Fifty participants will be randomly assigned to one of the two procedures, and scarring will be checked with a camera test 6-8 weeks later.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- Operative hysteroscopy using tissue removal device; suction curettage using plastic suction curette
- What this could lead to
- If hysteroscopy works better, it could reduce scarring in the uterus and improve chances of future pregnancy for women who have had an early pregnancy loss after IVF.
- What could go wrong
- This is a small, early-stage study with only 50 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. Hysteroscopy takes longer and may not always prevent adhesions.
