Human Reproduction and Embryology
Helsinki, Finland

Print copies of the meeting abstracts are provided for Conference Delegates only. However, the abstracts

ESHRE website: www.eshre.eu
Copyright Notice: All abstracts together with the programme, for presentation during the 32nd Annual
Meeting of ESHRE are copyright of ESHRE. These abstracts (or parts thereof) may not be reproduced,
stored, printed or transmitted in any form, or by any means, electronic, mechanical, photocopied, recording,
or otherwise without written permission of ESHRE and the author of the abstract.
Note to the media: All abstracts are strictly embargoed until the time and date of presentation at the
conference.
The opinions or views expressed in this abstracts supplement are those of the authors and do not necessarily
reflect the opinions or recommendations of ESHRE. The abstracts have been reviewed by the Congress
Scientific Committee and revised accordingly by the authors. The selection of abstracts is based on the
scores given by an international panel of peer reviewers.
Dosages, indications and methods of use for products that are referred to in the abstracts by the authors are
not necessarily appropriate for clinical use and may reflect the clinical experience of the authors or may be
derived from the professional literature of other clinical sources. Because of differences between in-vitro
and in-vivo systems and between laboratory animal models and clinical data in humans, in-vitro and animal
data may not necessarily correlate with clinical results.
The investigators of these abstracts have stated in their submission letter that prospective studies where
patients are involved have institutional Ethics Committee approval and informed patient consent, and
that the studies using experimental animals have institutional approval. The Publishers have endeavoured
to reproduce faithfully all of the abstracts as accepted by the Conference Organisers, but can accept no
responsibility for inaccuracies or omissions caused by the late receipt of abstracts.
