View clinical trials related to Infertility, Female.
Filter by:Infertility affects approximately 48 million couples and 186 million individuals globally, and it has biological, psychosocial, and economic problems in couples. It is a vital global reproductive health problem that has burdens and affects not only families but also society and the state. Studies indicate that many situations experienced during the infertility treatment process negatively affect the treatment results, and the anxiety of individuals receiving treatment, especially women, is high. The previous literature reports that during the infertility treatment process, women experience a decrease in their anxiety and self-confidence about drug administration, they have doubts about the dose, administration, and time of drugs, and the rate of mistakes made regarding drug administration is too high to be ignored. Such cases may lead to cycle cancellations in infertility treatment, interrupting the treatment, adversely affecting the success of the treatment, and thus exposing the couple to more than one treatment trial. The interruption of the treatment with the cycle cancellation, the increase in the number of treatment attempts, the repetitions cause the woman to be exposed to a higher amount of drug, the cost to increase with each treatment trial, an increase in the economic burden of the couples, and an increase in the financial burden for the country. In addition to these physical and economic burdens, feelings such as anxiety, concern, hopelessness, and depression increase in couples, and they may eventually experience burnout. In order to improve the care of infertile individuals, it is clearly stated in the literature that couples need open communication channels with health care professionals, obtaining qualified information, instilling realistic hope, empowerment, accessibility of care services, and they have unmet and high-quality care needs. The increase in the use and use of web-based education services in the globalizing world gives us hope in providing a solution to this issue. This project was mainly designed to answer the question of "Is the responsive web-based roadmap (InT-mAp) developed in solving the problems encountered in drug administration, treatment success and reducing anxiety in infertile women treated with Assisted Reproductive Techniques (ART)?" With InT-mAp, which investigators will develop using web-based education technology, which is a distance education method in this age of technology; investigators aimed to reduce/reduce the margin of error in ART treatment-drug practices, to contribute positively to the treatment process, and to reduce the social, economic and psychological burdens by reducing the anxiety level of individuals in this process. Besides, the InT-mAp, which will be developed to meet individuals' education and counseling needs for general infertility issues and the treatment process, will reduce the workload of healthcare professionals working in this field and make a positive contribution to drug administration consultancy. With this study, investigators aimed to provide participants with time-saving, individualized care, to reach the right information whenever they want, regardless of time and place, on every subject they need in the field of infertility. Investigators predict that sufficient follicle development, healthy oocytes and pregnancy can be achieved by creating awareness in infertile women and minimizing the conditions that may adversely affect the treatment process and results. Contributing to the health and economic indicators of the country by reducing cycle cancellations and reducing costs are among our important goals. The most important features that make the project unique are the absence of online support and a sensitive web-based training platform, where the infertility treatment process in Turkey can be followed in detail by the users, and individualized care and training needs are met.
In vitro fertilization (IVF) has helped countless couples conceive where they otherwise were unable, but does come at a significant cost. A large portion of that cost is in the medications that allow for controlled ovarian hyperstimulation. One aspect of treatment is in ovulation inhibition to allow for supraphysiologic recruitment of oocytes prior to natural ovulation. Historically, GnRH agonist and antagonists have been used. However, these are subcutaneous injections and can be costly. Clomiphene citrate is a selective estrogen receptor modulator that acts as an estrogen antagonist in the hypothalamus and pituitary and is an inexpensive oral agent. It may be used as an inhibitor of ovulation in IVF in theory but this has never been attempted to the best of our knowledge.
Cryopreservation of embryos and oocytes has become routine in assisted reproduction technology (ART). Live birth rates following frozen embryo transfers have increased significantly. Data show that cryopreservation has significant improved survival rates and cumulative pregnancy rates, as well as the safety of ART . Embryo cryopreservation has become a cornerstone in ART. With improved vitrification techniques. Frozen embryos transfer (FET) shows equal or even higher implantation and pregnancy rates than do fresh embryo transfers ART Previous studies show equal or even superior outcomes regarding pregnancy and live birth rates with frozen versus fresh embryo transfer Cryopreserve all embryos have increased substantially in recent years, and according to the recent trend of a freeze-all strategy. This study aims to answer a clinical question encountered in daily practice regarding at what stage embryos should be frozen.
The goal of this prospective cohort study is to learn about the overall and seasonal prevalence of vitamin D insufficiency and its determinants in a population of women with infertility who will go through in vitro fertilization in Sweden. The main questions it aims to answer are: - What is the prevalence of vitamin D insufficiency? - What are the determinants of this insufficiency? Participants will be asked to complete a questionnaire validated for dietary assessment of vitamin D intake and sun exposure habits and they will leave a blood sample for measurement of 25(OH)D concentration. Researchers will compare the in vitro fertilization outcomes between women with vitamin D insufficiency and sufficiency to see if there is any difference.
One hundred thirty women with unexplained infertility participated in a prospective clinical study. Patients were assigned at random to one of two groups. The first group (n=65) served as the study group and was given clomiphene citrate 50 mg (Tecnovula®, Techno Pharmaceuticals, Egypt) and sildenafil (Respatio®, Pharma right group, Egypt) 20 mg tablets. The second group (n=65) served as a control and received a placebo tablet in addition to the standard treatment of clomiphene citrate 50 mg (Tecnovula®). A transvaginal ultrasound was performed on all of the patients to assess ovulation.
To investigate, whether on the day of egg retrieval, after ovarian stimulation for ICSI (intracytoplasmic sperm injection), there is a correlation between the intrafollicular AMH (Anti-Müllerian hormone) levels and the ploidy status of the blastocyst.
A non-pharmacological, non-blinded, randomized cohort study that will investigate the effect of Virtual Reality technology on the patient experience during oocyte retrieval. The primary objective of the trial is to investigate the impact of Virtual Reality technology on the patient experience
The goal of this randomized study trial is to comparing transdermal estradiol gel and oral estradiol for endometrial preparation in the Frozen Embryo Transfer Cycle. The main question[s] it aims to answer is: • Can Transdermal estrogen (gel) can be equally efficacious as compared to oral estrogen in hormone replacement FET (HRT- FET) cycles ? The Transdermal gel would have the added benefit of a higher patient comfort with fewer side effects and a better safety profile. Participants planned for Frozen embryo transfer will undergo H-P-O axis suppression on previous cycle D21 of menses with gonadotropin-releasing hormone(GnRH) agonist depot preparation (Inj. Decapeptyl 3.75 mg) IM . The study will compare Transdermal E2 gel with Oral E2 tabs. The patients will be randomized into an oral and gel group, and all patients will participate only once in the study.
The goal of this clinical trial is to test MVA on improving pregnancy outcome in elderly infertile patients undergoing invitro fertilization (IVF). The main question it aims to answer is whether MVA could improve embryo haploid rate. Participants requested IVF are asked to randomly culture equal numbers of oocyte and embryo with or without MVA. Therefore, sibling oocytes were randomly divided into test group and control group.
In donors or patients undergoing assisted reproduction treatments (ART) it is necessary to closely control ovarian stimulation to monitor the number and size of developing follicles. Oestradiol (E2) and progesterone (P4) are products of steroidogenesis. Their concentrations increase with the diameter of the growing follicle. In order to assess treatment response and support clinical decisions, accurate and reliable methods to measure E2 and P4 are essential. Measurement of both hormones, as well as monitoring of follicle growth through ultrasound measurements, is an important part of ovarian stimulation, requiring patients or donors to undergo multiple blood draws. It is often a physically and emotionally painful process, and the most convenient solution is the measurement of hormones concentrations in other biological fluids, such as saliva. Salivary diagnostic tests are a less invasive, inexpensive, and stress-free alternative. The current study pretends to evaluate the correlation between salivary ELISA assays and serum determination of progesterone and oestradiol concentrations in oocyte donors, and, also, evaluate the feasibility of doing saliva E2 and P4 determinations in the IVIRMA clinic labs.
