Experimental
Recombinant FSH
human chorionic gonadotropin
Patients undergo a standard antagonist protocol for in-vitro fertilisation, and are stimulated with recombinant gonadotropins. Histology and gene expression is studied on the endometrium.
Patients undergo an antagonist protocol for in-vitro fertilisation and are stimulated with recombinant gonadotropins. When the patient has an estradiol value of 600 ng/L or more and when the patient has at least 6 follicles of 12 mm, the administration of gonadotropins is stopped and replaced by low dose human chorionic gonadotropins. Histology and gene expression is studied on the endometrium
