About this trial
This is an interventional treatment trial for Infertility focused on measuring Poor ovarian response, in vitro fertilization, mild ovarian stimulation, controlled ovarian stimulation
Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria:

Arm 2
Experimental
Active Comparator
mild ovarian stimulation
controlled ovarian stimulation
Patients are stimulated with mild ovarian stimulation protocol,i.ed, from cycle day 3 to 7, letrozole 5mg per day are administrated and recombinant FSH 150 IU are given on day 4 and 6 . On cycle day 8, serum FSH LH, and estradiol levels are measured, and after then, the dose of recombinant FSH is adjusted according to the ovarian response and the maxim recombinant FSH dose is 150 IU/d. The GnRH-antagonist (Cetrotide) 0.25mg per day is administrated when the estradiol level reaches 200 pg/ml and the serum LH level rises above 2 times of basal LH level.
Patients are stimulated using controlled ovarian stimulation protocol,i.e., from cycle day 18-22 (day 7 after ovulation) of previous cycle, all participants are given short-acting GnRH agonist (Triptorelin 0.05mg/d) for 14 days, then after checking serum FSH, LH and estradiol to make sure that complete downregulation is achieved, exogenous gonadotropin (recombinant FSH) 300 IU/d is given for 5 days, then the dose of recombinant FSH is adjusted according to ovarian response.
