Preface
We are fortunate to practice reproductive medicine during a time of unprecedented success when it comes to assisted reproductive technology. With the advent of comprehensive chromosomal screening, the contribution of aneuploidy to implantation failure has been all but eliminated. Still, though, euploid embryos fail to implant. Why is that? The dwindling rate of implantation failure makes the remaining cases a particular challenge for both practitioners and their patients. The very workup for recurrent implantation failure, let alone available treatment options, often remains elusive. This text is unique in its multifaceted approach to thinking about these challenging cases. It starts with a foundational look at the signaling between the embryo and endometrium, which leads to the management of embryo and endometrial synchrony. The pathologic nature of implantation failure is then ex
