Active clinical trials for "Infertility, Female"

This study will add: Finding out an association between Protein S activity and unexplained female infertility. Aim: Study hypothesis: In women with unexplained infertility protein S activity may be low. Study question: In women with unexplained infertility does protein S activity low?. This study aims to assess the activity of protein S activity in women with unexplained infertility. Objectives: The main objective of this study is: To determine the prevalence of Protein S activity with unexplained female infertility and to compare its prevalence in fertile women among women attending outpatient clinics at Ain Shams University Maternity Hospital.

This is a prospective randomised study of the evaluation of the clinical IVF results after following a new revolutionary 3-Injection- Protocol for controlled ovarian stimulation in infertile women.

A Prospective cohort study including couples with poor responder females who undergoing ICSI

To investigate if asthma affects the inflammatory balance of the endometrium and thereby interfere with implantation, as indicated by the characteristics of the inflammatory cells in the endometrium and airways in women with asthma who are referred for IUI or IVF due to infertility, compared to otherwise healthy women who are referred for IUI or IVF due to infertility.

Reduced ovarian reserve and the consequent poor ovarian response are very recurent in infertile patients, indeed a percentage of 10%-24% of couples addressed to infertility program may be classified as Poor Ovarian Responder (POR). Objective: To evaluate whether the repeated luteal phase stimulation (Second Step) permits a significantly higher number of oocytes retrieved in POR when compared to conventional follicular stimulation. Interventions: The follicular phase stimulation is conduced according to a standardized Antagonist protocol or Short protocol (with GnRH agonist) using recombinant or urinary gonadotropins (starting dose 300 or 450 UI) or a long lasting recombinant gonadotropin (Corifollitropin alfa 150 mcg). Two - six days after the first oocyte retrieval a second gonadotropin stimulation will be started with a GnRH antagonist protocol (the stimulation will be started with 250 UI of human menopausal gonadotropin (hMG) and a GnRH antagonist (GnRH-an) 0,25 mg\die will be administered when the leading follicle is ≥ 14 mm until hCG (human chorionic gonadotropin) criteria are met. When at least two follicles had reached 17-18 mm in diameter, ovulation will be triggered with a single subcutaneous bolus of urinary human chorionic gonadotropin (10.000 UI ) and oocyte retrieval will be performed after 35 hours. Two or Three months after the second oocyte retrieval the Embryo transfer (ET) will be performed after endometrial preparation with Estradiol Valerate and intramuscular Progesterone.

The aim of this study is to prospectively examine the relationship of the uterine junctional zone thickness, evaluated by ultrasonography and In Vitro Fertilization (IVF) treatment outcome. The study hypothesis is that the uterine junctional zones of women who did not achieve pregnancy will be thicker than those of the women who do achieve pregnancy

Hysteroscopy has now become a gold-standard technique carried out for uterine cavity assessment in infertile women. Apart from direct visualizing of the endometrium by the naked eye, pathologies missed by other modalities of investigation can be picked up and managed appropriately. Unfortunately, the procedure itself is not free from complications e.g. perforation, cervical laceration, bleeding, limited access in cases of cervical stenosis and considered as an invasive procedure. Two-dimensional transvaginal ultrasonography (2D-TVS)and Three-dimensional TVS (3D-TVS) are non-invasive methods for evaluating the uterine cavity. The3D-TVS is superior to 2D-TVS in identifying uterine cavity abnormalities due to its ability to obtain a view of three different planes of the uterus, which could be used to locate the position of intracavitary pathology. Reports vary regarding the diagnostic accuracy of 3D-TVS that was reported to have 41.3-81.5% sensitivity and 94.6-98.7% specificity. So it became clear that 3D-TVS is a non-invasive and safe diagnostic tool for evaluation of the uterine cavity abnormalities but its sensitivity, specificity and accuracy still a matter of debate and warrants more evaluation.

The relationship between revelation of mode of conception and child behavior is not known

A prospective cohort trial studying patients with infertility undergoing an ovarian stimulation with exogenous gonadotropins. Ovarian monitoring will be performed with a combination of transvaginal ultrasound and 2 dimensional human measurements of the follicle development on the right and left ovaries along with SonoAVC. Human and SonoAVC measurements will then be compared to mask region-based convolutional neural network in follicle identification and measurement during during the ovarian stimulation.
