Clinical Trial Summary

The goal of this project is to identify autocrine, paracrine and endocrine factors which are associated with intercycle variation in cyclical follicle recruitment.

Patients will be monitored in a natural cycle, a stimulated cycle and a follow up. In the stimulated cycle patients will be randomized to co-treatment with aromatase inhibitor or placebo during ovarian stimulation.


Clinical Trial Description

The primary aim of this project is to explore the putative cyclic recruitment 'gatekeeping' functions of gonadotropins, sex steroids, anti-muellarian hormone and pregnancy associated plasma protein A in normal ovulatory cycles, and the impact of ovarian stimulation on cyclic follicle recruitment in the following cycle.

It is further proposed that supra-physiological levels of estradiol and progesterone which arise from ovarian stimulation may modulate the size of the secondarily recruited follicle cohort in the next cycle. In order to explore the relative contribution of sex steroids as determinants of the size of the next cycle 'wave' of recruitment further, a second aim of this study will be investigate whether limiting the rise in sex steroid levels during ovarian stimulation, by co-treatment with aromatase inhibitor impacts on cyclic recruitment. ;
