Controls more often underwent ICSI treatment (80.1% vs. 25.0%, p<0.001) and also had more viable oocytes (8.0 vs. 7.0, p=0.015) and embryos (5.0 vs. 4.0, p<0.001) versus adenomyosis patients. Embryo quality was similar between groups (p=0.112), but did differ (p<0.001) when looking only at the second transferred embryo where applicable.
