Are you going to attend ESHRE Congress 2025 in Paris and looking to expand your network? #ESHREJC has something exciting for you 💡. Stay tuned! Sara Noemi Salmeri Attilio Anastasi Juanjo Fraire-Zamora Omar Ammar Zoya Ali George Liperis Dr Fabrizzio Horta



Claudia Massarotti, MD Attilio Anastasi Noemi Salmeri Omar Ammar Juanjo Fraire-Zamora Kashish Sharma Sara George Liperis Kalaitzopoulos Dimitrios Rafail Dr Fabrizzio Horta Zoya Ali ESHRE 100% agree. That’s why we choose to create a decision aid, as the goal of a decision aid is to improve decision process and quality (it’s not about what ends up being done). #ESHREjc

Omar Ammar Attilio Anastasi Noemi Salmeri Juanjo Fraire-Zamora Kashish Sharma Sara George Liperis Kalaitzopoulos Dimitrios Rafail Dr Fabrizzio Horta Zoya Ali ESHRE Yes! To understand a lot of practical details. But the final consultation regarding your specific expected outcomes will have to be personalised and, at least as of today, with a clinician #ESHREjc

Claudia Massarotti, MD Attilio Anastasi Noemi Salmeri Omar Ammar Juanjo Fraire-Zamora Kashish Sharma George Liperis Kalaitzopoulos Dimitrios Rafail Dr Fabrizzio Horta Zoya Ali ESHRE Great point! 🤔 Indeed in Dr Sherine Sandhu paper the primary outcome was decision conflict -> more than the decision to❄️or not, the level of confidence in the decision made might be the target of any intervention #ESHREjc

Omar Ammar Attilio Anastasi Noemi Salmeri Juanjo Fraire-Zamora Kashish Sharma Sara George Liperis Kalaitzopoulos Dimitrios Rafail Dr Fabrizzio Horta Zoya Ali ESHRE Agree with Omar Ammar its definitely going to help in for medications, followup , etc. #eshrejc

Claudia Massarotti, MD Attilio Anastasi Noemi Salmeri Omar Ammar Juanjo Fraire-Zamora Kashish Sharma Sara George Liperis Kalaitzopoulos Dimitrios Rafail Dr Fabrizzio Horta Zoya Ali ESHRE However, in hindsight, to have the power to to assess some of the decision-making outcomes (that depended on having made a decision), we needed a longer follow-up. #ESHREjc

A/Prof Michelle Peate Attilio Anastasi Noemi Salmeri Omar Ammar Juanjo Fraire-Zamora Kashish Sharma Sara George Liperis Kalaitzopoulos Dimitrios Rafail Dr Fabrizzio Horta Zoya Ali ESHRE In clinical practice it is common that after an extensive consultation young women say "well, maybe I'll be back in a few years". It's a great result even if the answer is still "maybe". Very different from being undecided. And aids may help saving a lot of time #ESHREjc

Sara Claudia Massarotti, MD A/Prof Michelle Peate Attilio Anastasi Noemi Salmeri Omar Ammar Juanjo Fraire-Zamora Kashish Sharma Kalaitzopoulos Dimitrios Rafail Dr Fabrizzio Horta Zoya Ali ESHRE They are complementary to each other. Both needed to make an informed decision #ESHREjc

Sara Claudia Massarotti, MD Attilio Anastasi Noemi Salmeri Omar Ammar Juanjo Fraire-Zamora Kashish Sharma George Liperis Kalaitzopoulos Dimitrios Rafail Dr Fabrizzio Horta Zoya Ali ESHRE We also have found that some people make a decision not to freeze eggs before visiting a clinic - so to support informed decisions in this group, having an accessible online tool is helpful. #ESHREjc

A/Prof Michelle Peate Claudia Massarotti, MD Attilio Anastasi Noemi Salmeri Omar Ammar Juanjo Fraire-Zamora Kashish Sharma George Liperis Kalaitzopoulos Dimitrios Rafail Dr Fabrizzio Horta Zoya Ali ESHRE Yes! Accessibility is indeed a plus! Due to finances, location, or other barriers, healthcare settings aren’t always easily reachable for everyone #ESHREjc

Sara Claudia Massarotti, MD A/Prof Michelle Peate Attilio Anastasi Noemi Salmeri Omar Ammar Juanjo Fraire-Zamora Kashish Sharma George Liperis Kalaitzopoulos Dimitrios Rafail Dr Fabrizzio Horta Zoya Ali ESHRE fully agree that it should be complementary in a medical setting. #decisionaids are a very good support as it has been shown in various settings, but never without individual counselling. #eshrejc

A/Prof Michelle Peate Sara Claudia Massarotti, MD Attilio Anastasi Noemi Salmeri Omar Ammar Juanjo Fraire-Zamora Kashish Sharma George Liperis Kalaitzopoulos Dimitrios Rafail Dr Fabrizzio Horta Zoya Ali ESHRE hypothesis: may it be easier for patients (and caretakes, familiy, ...) to accept their decision - especially when they decide NOT to to something? #eshrejc

Verena Ehrbar Sara Claudia Massarotti, MD Attilio Anastasi Noemi Salmeri Omar Ammar Juanjo Fraire-Zamora Kashish Sharma George Liperis Kalaitzopoulos Dimitrios Rafail Dr Fabrizzio Horta Zoya Ali ESHRE I had a patient say this to me once (referring my oncofertility decision aid), that it made her feel ok to not freeze before she started her cancer treatment. I think the same would apply for this decision aid too! #ESHREjc

Juanjo Fraire-Zamora Attilio Anastasi Karan Vadher Noemi Salmeri Omar Ammar Kashish Sharma Sara George Liperis Kalaitzopoulos Dimitrios Rafail Dr Fabrizzio Horta Zoya Ali ESHRE Human Fertilisation & Embryology Authority (HFEA) Many people want more than one child. Frozen 🥚 may be used later for second or third children, after a spontaneous pregnancy. This is something that was never accounted for in literature (maybe with a little more time we will have also these data..) #ESHREjc


The #speeddating event was so cool! Honoured to have participated as a mentor this year ✨ Kudos to Sara Juanjo Fraire-Zamora Zoya Ali George Liperis Dr Fabrizzio Horta Attilio Anastasi Kalaitzopoulos Dimitrios Rafail for organizing this network opportunity at #ESHRE2025
