Abstract: Objective To compare the efficacy of two vaginal progesterone formulations, Crinone gel or Utrogestan capsules, combined with dydrogesterone tablets, for luteal phase support in pre-implantation genetic testing (PGT) freeze-thaw embryo transfer (FET) cycles. Methods We analyzed 209 FET cycles in patients undergoing PGT-blastocyst transfer in our center between June, 2017 and June, 2020. The patients received vaginal administration of either Crinone gel (n=135) or Utrogestan capsules (n=74) combined with oral dydrogesterone tablets for luteal supplementation, and the clinical pregnancy rate (CPR) and miscarriage rate (MR) were compared between the two groups. Results The Crinone gel and Utrogestan capsule groups were comparable for age, duration of infertility, AMH, AFC, BMI, basal FSH, LH, and E2 (P>0.05). The gonadotrophin dose, duration of stimulation, levels of LH, E2, P and endometrial thickness on hCG day, and the numbers of oocytes retrieved, MII oocytes, 2PN and blastocysts did not differ significantly between two groups (P>0.05). In FET cycles, no significant differences were observed between the two groups in the duration of endometrial preparation, P and endometrial thickness on endometrial transformation day, biochemical pregnancy rate (69.63% vs 78.38% ), CPR (62.96% vs 72.97% ), MR (12.94% vs 11.11%), vaginal bleeding rate in early pregnancy (20% vs 27.78%), or MR in patients with vaginal bleeding in early pregnancy (35.29% vs 20% ) (P>0.05). Conclusion Crinone gel and Utrogestan capsules combined with oral dydrogesterone have similar clinical efficacy for luteal support in PGT FET cycles.
