Diosmin Versus Cabergoline for Prevention of Ovarian Hyperstimulation Syndrome
InfertilityThe purpose of this study is to compare the effect of oral Diosmin to oral Cabergoline in the prevention of ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS) in high-risk women underwent intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI).
Single Embryo TrAnsfeR of Euploid Embryo
InfertilityAneuploidyThe purpose of the current study is to evaluate the effect of preimplantation genetic screening (PGS) by next generation sequencing (NGS) compared to standard morphological assessment of embryos on pregnancy rates through a randomized controlled trial (RCT). All embryos will be vitrified and a single embryo transfer (SET) will be performed with either screened or unscreened embryos depending on randomization.
An Efficacy and Safety Study of Corifollitropin Alfa (MK-8962) in Contrast to Recombinant FSH for...
InfertilityThis study, conducted in India, will be recruiting women participants who are between the ages of 18 and 42, and who have an indication for controlled ovarian stimulation (COS), but have not yet undergone in-vitro fertilization and/or intracytoplasmic sperm injection (IVF/ICSI). The study is designed to compare the difference in oocyte (immature egg cell) production after administration of the investigative drug, MK-8962 (corifollitropin alfa) + recombinant follicle stimulating hormone (recFSH), in contrast to use of only the reference drug, recFSH.
SIGnificance of Routine Hysteroscopy Prior to a First 'in Vitro Fertilization'(IVF) Treatment Cycle...
Intrauterine Abnormalities in InfertilityBACKGROUND: Despite the numerous advances in the field of in vitro fertilisation/intracytoplasmic sperm injection (IVF/ICSI), there still exists a maximum implantation rate per embryo transferred of about 30%. Next to the physiological and physic burden that comes with every IVF treatment cycle, implantation failure also adds up to the considerable costs associated with ART. Studies have shown, that minor intrauterine abnormalities can be found in 11-40% of the infertile women with a normal transvaginal sonography. Detection and treatment of these abnormalities by office hysteroscopy have led to a 9-13% increase in pregnancy rate. Therefore, it is increasingly advocated to screen all infertile women on intracavitary pathology prior to the start of IVF/ICSI. OBJECTIVE: The aim of the proposed study is to assess whether diagnosing and treating unsuspected intrauterine abnormalities by saline infusion sonography and/or routine office hysteroscopy prior to a first IVF/ICSI treatment cycle improves the cost-effectiveness of the fertility treatment. STUDY DESIGN: Multicenter randomized intervention study. POPULATION: Asymptomatic women, indicated for a first IVF/ICSI treatment cycle and a normal transvaginal ultrasonography. INTERVENTION: Participants will be randomized for a (SIS and) hysteroscopy with treatment-on-the spot of predefined intrauterine abnormalities versus no diagnostic work-up. In both groups standard IVF/ICSI treatment will be initiated. PRIMARY OUTCOME MEASURE: Cumulative ongoing pregnancy rate resulting in live birth achieved within 18 months of IVF/ICSI treatment after randomization (obtained in both treatment cycles with fresh embryos, as well as in subsequent cryo/thaw cycles) SECONDARY OUTCOME MEASURE: Cumulative implantation rate achieved within 18 months of IVF/ICSI treatment after randomization (obtained in both treatment cycles with fresh embryos, as well as in subsequent cryo/thaw cycles) Cumulative miscarry rate within 18 months of IVF/ICSI treatment after randomization (obtained in both treatment cycles with fresh embryos, as well as in subsequent cryo/thaw cycles) Cost calculations of, SIS, hysteroscopy procedures and the IVF treatment Patient preference and tolerance of a SIS and diagnostic/therapeutic hysteroscopy procedure Prevalence of unexpected intrauterine abnormalities Diagnostic accuracy of SIS in diagnosing intrauterine abnormalities
Benefits of Walnuts for Male Reproductive Health
InfertilityNutrition DisordersWalnuts as a whole food contain polyunsaturated fatty acids, anti-oxidants, and other nutrients essential to sperm development and function. This randomized controlled trial sought to determine if a Western style diet supplemented with walnuts would improve sperm quality as a predictor of male fertility.
Desogestrel (DSG) and Corifollitropin(FSH-CTP) Alfa for Ovarian Stimulation in Donors
InfertilityCurrently, controlled ovarian stimulation (COS) in oocyte donors is performed by daily injections of gonadotropins( recombinant FSH) plus a GnRH Antagonist usually form 5th-6th stimulation day until ovulation induction with a bolus of another injection of a gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) Agonist. Injections of the GnRH Antagonist avoid untimely luteinizing hormone (LH) surge and spontaneous ovulation prior to follicular aspiration. There is a preparation of long-acting recombinant follicle stimulating hormone (rFSH= (corifollitropin alfa (FSH-CTP), Elonva®, MSD), that allows that a single subcutaneous injection substitutes the first 7 days of daily gonadotropin injections. On the other hand, a contraceptive oral progesterone only( Desogestrel, DSG) is available for contraception, avoiding the LH surge. It has been described the usefulness of orally administered medroxyprogesterone acetate, 10 mg to inhibit the endogenous LH surge in IVF patients during COS. In donors, by administering a single injection of FSH-CTP and oral desogestrel since the first menstruation day, the total number of injections administered is reduced and less discomfort is experienced without adverse impact on ovarian response. No description of the hormonal and ovarian response under this protocol has been published
Prevalence of HPV Transmission During Medically Assisted Procreation Procedures
Human Papillomavirus (HPV)Medically Assisted Procreation (MAP)1 moreHuman PapillomaVirus (HPV) are ones of the main causal agents of sexually transmitted diseases. Numerous HPV genotypes such as 16, 18, 31 or 45 are considered to be at high risk of oncogenicity especially for the anal and cervical mucosa. At the present time, no recommendations exist on the risk related to HPV during Medically Assisted Procreation (MAP) procedures. The main objective of this prospective multicentric cohort study is to evaluate the prevalence of transmission of HPV via the semen during MAP program. Secondary objectives are to evaluate (1) the prevalence of HPV DNA in the sperm fractions of men enrolled in MAP, (2) the efficacy of spermatozoal pellet preparation procedures to eliminate HPV, (3) the correlation between HPV and male infertility and (4) the correlation between HPV and success rate of procreation. Results could contribute to revise guidelines of MAP procedures and HPV vaccination policy.
Automatic Volume Calculations During Three-dimensional Sonohysterography.
Infertility,Abortions2 moreThe purpose of this trial is to evaluate the feasibility and reliability of automatic volume calculation of uterine cavity in women with reproductive failures. 3D volumes of uterus and uterine cavity will be acquired during three-dimensional ultrasonography and sonohysterography. After that independent observers will measure offline the uterine cavity volume using automatic volume calculation using SonoAVC general software, and VOCAL software.
Comparison of Three Cannulas for Hysterosalpingography
InfertilityThe aim of this study is to compare the three commonly used hysterosalpingography (HSG) injection devices on the basis of patient pain perception, total fluoroscopic and procedural time, and side effects in a prospective, randomized study. An important and novel secondary outcome is the comparison of the quality of images obtained with these three devices. The investigators hypothesize that the balloon catheter and cervical vacuum cup will be less painful than the acorn tipped cannula and that there will be no difference in image quality between the three groups.
