The increasing use of frozen-thawed embryo transfer (FET) cycles has brought more attention to endometrial preparation protocols in assisted reproduction. Emerging evidence suggests that natural cycle (NC) FETs may lead to better outcomes, leading to a recommendation for healthcare providers to consider increasing the utilization of NC FET over the favored artificial cycle (AC) FET for endometrial preparation.
