ĐẶT LỊCH KHÁM

Recently, the Andrology and Fertility Hospital of Hanoi (AF HANOI) participated in ASPIRE 2026, one of the most prestigious scientific forums in the Asia-Pacific region in the field of assisted reproduction, held from May 7–10, 2026, in Beijing, China.

ASPIRE 2026 gathered thousands of experts, physicians, researchers, embryologists and leading fertility centers from many countries around the world. This year’s conference, themed “Journeying the Silk Road of Reproductive Care”, highlighted the importance of academic connection, multinational collaboration and the sharing of new advances in modern reproductive medicine.

Notably, at ASPIRE 2026, AF HANOI was honored to have 12 scientific reports accepted, including 11 poster presentations and 1 oral presentation, marking an important milestone that reflects the hospital’s research capability, professional development and international integration.

Among them, the oral presentation entitled “Pregnancy complications and outcomes in advanced maternal age patients using donor oocytes in IVF”, presented by Dr. Thieu Dinh Trong on behalf of the research team (Dr. Nguyen Thanh Trung, Dr. Thieu Dinh Trong, MSc. Dr. Duong Thi Hien Luong, Dr. Tran Dieu Du and MSc. Nguyen Thi Huyen Trang), received significant attention and positive feedback from the scientific committee and international experts. The study provides valuable practical insights into the safety and effectiveness of pregnancies in older women undergoing IVF with donor oocytes, particularly regarding obstetric complications and neonatal outcomes, thereby supporting physicians in counseling, monitoring and managing pregnancies in this high-risk patient group more effectively.

In addition, AF HANOI’s 11 poster presentations also left a strong impression at ASPIRE 2026, covering a wide range of topics in modern reproductive medicine, including andrology, reproductive surgery, embryology, genetics, high-risk obstetrics, mental health and patient care.

1. Dr. Bui Thi Phuong Hoa:
   “The combination of Micro-TESE and ICSI yields promising reproductive outcomes: A retrospective study of 302 non-mosaic Klinefelter syndrome patients”.
2. Dr. Hoang Van Khanh:
   “Outcomes of prophylactic cervical cerclage in pregnant women with a history of miscarriage and preterm birth”.
3. MSc. Dr. Trinh Thi Thuy:

5. Dr. Thieu Dinh Trong:
   “Reproductive and obstetric outcomes in Turner syndrome: A retrospective cohort study”.
6. Embryologist Nguyen Thi Phuong Linh:
   “Is extended embryo culture to Day 7 a feasible option for patients with a limited number of blastocysts?”
7. MSc. Embryologist Nguyen Phan Cam Trang:
   “The impact of maternal age and BMI on embryo aneuploidy rates in ICSI cycles with PGT-A”.
8. MSc. Embryologist Nguyen Phan Cam Trang:
   “Comparison of embryological and clinical outcomes between swim-up and density gradient sperm preparation methods in ICSI-PGT-A cycles”.
9. Embryologist Phan Thuy Linh:
   “Microfluidic sperm processing versus conventional methods on embryo quality and aneuploidy rates: A matched analysis”.
10. Nurse Kieu Thi Mai:
    “The role of nurses in sexual healthcare access and counseling: Experience from Hanoi Center for Sexual Medicine”.
11. MSc. Nguyen Thi Huyen Trang:
    “Depression among infertile women: Prevalence and associated factors”.

Having 12 reports accepted at ASPIRE 2026 not only demonstrates AF HANOI’s strong commitment to scientific research and sustainable academic development, but also reflects the hospital’s proactive international integration in the field of assisted reproduction. The conference focused on many advanced topics, including:

• Applications of artificial intelligence (AI) in embryo assessment and treatment outcome prediction
• Personalization of IVF laboratory procedures for different patient groups
• New advances in the diagnosis and treatment of male infertility
• PGT-A, embryo genetics and embryo quality optimization
• Emerging techniques in IVF/ICSI and assisted reproduction
• Fertility preservation and related ethical issues
• The role of nursing and comprehensive patient-centered infertility care
• Mental health and quality of life in infertility patients

Through this conference, AF HANOI’s physicians and specialists continued to strengthen academic connections with the international reproductive medicine community, update advanced treatment trends and access the latest developments in IVF, embryology, andrology and reproductive genetics. This represents an important step forward in enhancing treatment quality, personalizing patient care and bringing valuable Vietnamese research closer to the global scientific community.
