摘要：
Intravenous Immunoglobulin (IVIg) is a potential treatment for immune mediated reproductive failure (IMRF), but its role in infertility treatments remains controversial. There is evidence that administering IVIg before conception improves pregnancy outcomes. In the present cohort, 13/15 (86%) patients had a live birth after receiving pre-conceptual Wig at immunomodulatory doses. No serious maternal or fetal side effects directly attributable to IVIg were reported. The present results support the need for a randomized controlled trial (RCT) with this protocol.
