About this trial

This is an interventional treatment trial for Primary Ovarian Insufficiency

Eligibility Criteria

18 Years - 40 Years (Adult)FemaleDoes not accept healthy volunteers

Inclusion Criteria:

  • premature ovarian failure
  • normal anatomy
  • normal secondary sexual characteristics
  • essential or idiopathic

Exclusion Criteria:

  • chromosomal disorder
  • iatrogenic injury
  • autoimmune diseases
  • infection
  • genetic diseases

Sites / Locations

  • Navy General Hospital

Arms of the Study

Arm 1

Arm Type

Experimental

Arm Label

Yasmin

Arm Description

Pregnancies will occur while the women are taking oral contraceptives (Yasmin). The possible role of exogenous estrogens in sensitizing the granulosa cells to the effect of follicle-stimulating hormone and thereby inducing ovulation and conception in some women with premature ovarian failure is examined.

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

live birth
The event that a FETUS is born alive with heartbeats or RESPIRATION regardless of GESTATIONAL AGE. Such liveborn is called a newborn infant (INFANT, NEWBORN).

Secondary Outcome Measures

clinical pregnancy rate
The ratio of the number of conceptions (CONCEPTION) including LIVE BIRTH; STILLBIRTH; and fetal losses, to the mean number of females of reproductive age in a population during a set time period.
multiple pregnancy
The condition of carrying two or more FETUSES.
miscarriage
Expulsion of the product of FERTILIZATION before completing the term of GESTATION and without deliberate interference.

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
Premature ovarian insufficiency (POI) is a life-changing condition that affects women in their reproductive age. There is a lack of reports which focus on how to improve the reproductive outcome of these women who wish to conceive spontaneously or use assisted conception with their own oocytes. However, one could surmise that it is important to lower gonadotropin levels into the physiological range before embarking on any treatment, even if natural conception is the only choice for the woman/couple.
