April Grand Rounds: Implantation failure, infertility and endometrial biomarkers in the detection of endometriosis
Bruce A Lessey MD, PhD. discusses the biomarkers of endometrial receptivity and diagnostics for endometriosis, including the use of BCL6 testing. Review timing and synchrony of the embryo, progesterone, and endometrium that occur in a successful pregnancy. Discuss how to approach treatment and predict pregnancy outcomes with this information.
March Grand Rounds: Endoscopic management of the unexplained infertility, what does it add?
Professor Stephan Gordts presents a systematic minimal invasive exploration of so-called "unexplained infertility" (normal ultrasound/normal HSG) reveals the presence of pelvic pathology on 50-70 % of patients. In the absence of other fertility impairing factors, like male infertility, he looks at the different treatments of these pathologies to create the possibilities for normal conception.
March Journal Club: Lisinopril for Male Infertility: An Update and Mechanism of Action
Dr. Paul Carpentier provides an update and review on the use of Lisinopril for Male infertility, discussing the article, "Angiotensin-converting enzymes play a dominant role infertility". The biochemistry background of angiotensin-converting enzymes (ACEs) in Male Fertility is also reviewed, with discussion following.

January Journal Club: Unexplained recurrent pregnancy loss and unexplained infertility
"Is B-cell CLL/lymphoma 6 (BCL6) endometrial expression, a surrogate biomarker of endometriosis, elevated in women with unexplained recurrent pregnancy loss (uRPL) and unexplained infertility (UI) compared to fertile subjects?". What could this study suggest for potential treatment and future investigations for recurrent miscarriage and unexplained pregnancy loss? Review the findings of this study in the IIRRM Journal club with Dr. Joe Stanford.
December Journal Club: Early pregnancy ultrasound measurements and prediction of first-trimester pregnancy loss
In our last Journal club of 2021 Dr Stanford facilitates and reviews the article, Early pregnancy ultrasound measurements and prediction of first-trimester pregnancy loss: A logistic model. The authors suggest a statistical model for determining the likelihood of first-trimester pregnancy loss based on ultrasound markers in early pregnancy.

May Teacher Series: Exploring the relationship between gut microbiome and PCO
What is the association between the gut microbiome and PCOS? What about the impact of the microbiome on health and diseases? Dr. April Lind explores the potential relationship between the gut microbiome and PCO, as well as providing an overall understanding of what exactly is meant by the microbiome and the effect on health and disease. Learn new ways of optimizing treatment for PCO, and share your thoughts on potential options for better treatment and management of this disease in the forum.
17th Annual International Virtual Conference for Restorative Reproductive Medicine
Celebrate 20 years of bringing together a community of medical professionals and supporters who are helping to transform reproductive medicine at the 2020 International RRM Virtual Conference. Hear the latest developments, innovations, and research in the area of RRM. Listen to our Fireside Chat in which 6 clinical cases of PCOS were presented, with each presentation highlighting a different science-based method of charting that assists in identifying, managing, and treating a patient with PCOS.
