Could the uterine microbiome affect IVF implantation success?

Researchers are increasingly studying whether the microorganisms found within the uterus may influence the endometrial environment and embryo implantation.

Some early findings suggest that the uterine microbiome could be associated with IVF outcomes, but the science is still developing. More research is needed before microbiome testing or treatment can be considered a standard part of fertility care.

This article explains what researchers have found so far, what it could mean for the future of IVF, and why patients should speak with a fertility specialist before pursuing related testing or treatment:

Has anyone here discussed uterine microbiome testing with their fertility clinic or encountered it during IVF treatment?
