Research Abstract |
The peak power and frequency of uterine peristalses after sacral surface electrical stimulation (ssES) treatment decreased markedly in comparison with that measured before ssES the day of embryo transfer (ET). However, there is no change of the PGF_<2α> density in urine before and after ssES. The suppression effect of uterine peristalses may be an effect of neuromodulation by electrical stimulation. This electrical neuromodulation may be an effective method to induce uterine relaxation for ET.
