Recurrent implantation failure (RIF) refers to failure in achievement of a clinical pregnancy after transfer of at least four high-quality embryos in a minimum of three fresh or frozen assisted reproductive treatment (ART) cycles, such as in vitro fertilization and intracytoplasmic sperm injection in women under the age of 40 years. 1 Etiologic factors for implantation failure are diverse and include maternal factors such as uterine abnormalities (polyps, myomas), advanced maternal age, obesity (body mass index >30; calculated as weight in kilograms divided by the square of height in meters), hormonal, metabolic, and immunologic disorders, chromosomal abnormalities, infections, thrombophilia, and smoking status of both parents. 2 In addition, the impact of genetic and morphologic state of the embryo as well as severe male factors are other important etiologies. 2,3 Implantation of a human embryo is a complex process that is chronologically restricted in which the endometrium is receptive to embryonic implantation during a defined "window" of time. 4 This process consists of three main stages; (1) apposition: the blastocyst makes loose connections with the implantation site of the endometrium; (2) adhesion: trophoblastic cells strongly attach to the endometrial epithelium; (3) invasion: trophoblastic cells continue to proliferate and penetrate to the epithelial membrane of endometrium. 5 In the natural menstrual cycle, the ovum enters the uterus about 4 days after
