5. Study Description

Brief Summary
The study compares in a randomized controlled way two stimulation methods. One of these stimulation methods implements a new insight in ovarian follicular growth. If this novel method of stimulation proves to be as efficient as the classical stimulation protocols, there might be a dramatic reduction of the costs of the medical therapy in IVF, thus reducing also the overall IVf costs significantly.
