Am J Reprod Immunol Microbiol. 1985 Aug;8(4):130-1. doi: 10.1111/j.1600-0897.1985.tb00324.x.

Abstract

In vitro fertilization (IVF) and embryo transfer results were analyzed for three women with sperm antibodies in their plasma and follicular fluid. These preliminary results suggest that substitution of the patients' serum by replacement serum in the fertilization and embryo growth media may prove to be an effective means of improving IVF treatment for women with sperm immunity.
