Abstract
This commentary addresses Kuwabara et al.'s study on biochemical pregnancy loss (BPL) in recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL) patients following euploid embryo transfers. While their methodology minimizes embryonic bias and strengthens maternal factor assessment, concerns regarding statistical interpretation and potential ascertainment bias limit generalizability. Nonetheless, this study raises important questions regarding the incorporation of BPL into RPL diagnostic frameworks.
