In present study, we aimed to investigate the effect of seasonal variation on ICSI results both in fresh and frozen embryo transfer cycles. Between January 2007 and December 2019, a total of 4039 ICSI cycles (3227 fresh and 812 frozen ET) which resulted in embryo transfer were included in the study. We found no significant difference in the pregnancy outcome among different seasons and months. The best results were obtained for spring (41.0%) and the least for winter (37.1%) in fresh cycles and the best for spring (42.5%) and the least for winter (29.7%) in FET cycles. In monthly distribution, the best results were obtained for September (57.0%) and the least for November (24.1%) in fresh cycles and the best for October (49.3%) and the least for December (20.2%) in FET cycles. Our study did not show any significant influence of the months or seasons on clinical pregnancy rates in either fresh and frozen embryo transfers. However, the difference among months in frozen cycles was notable although it did not reach statistical significance. It can be suggested that the strict control of reproductive hormones especially in fresh cycles as well as the standardized laboratory temperature minimize the influence of seasonal effect on ICSI outcome.
