Acknowledgments: This report was developed under the direction of the Practice Committee of the American Society for Reproductive Medicine as a service to its members and other practicing clinicians. Although this document reflects appropriate management of a problem encountered in the practice of reproductive medicine, it is not intended to be the only approved standard of practice or to dictate an exclu- sive course of treatment. Other plans of management may be appropriate, taking into account the needs of the individual patient, available resources, and institutional or clinical prac- tice limitations. The Practice Committee and the Board of Di- rectors of the American Society for Reproductive Medicine have approved this report.
This document was reviewed by ASRM members and their input was considered in the preparation of the final docu- ment. The following members of the ASRM Practice Commit- tee participated in the development of this document.
