Filter by:To evaluate whether the measurement of urinary estrone glucuronide and luteinizing hormone (LH) concentrations with an at-home device is correlated with serum hormone levels within a natural cycle frozen embryo transfer protocol. The hypothesis is that home urinary monitoring can reliably detect the LH surge and serve as a trigger for timing the FET. Results of this study may ultimately lead to change in clinical practice by reducing the number of clinic visits for serum monitoring, offering a more convenient, time and cost saving method of detection of LH surge. If the proposed protocol were feasible and widely accepted by patients, this would prompt the wide adoption of a less invasive but equally as effective FET protocol.
The goal of this randomized clinical trial is to compare the effects of two different ovarian stimulation methods: Progestin Primed Ovarian Stimulation (PPOS) vs. GnRH Antagonist in embryologic outcomes of IVF Patients.
This case-control study involving fertile and subfertile couples aims to identify male factors related to pregnancy likelihood, create a fertility index measure combining male and female factors to predict pregnancy likelihood, and examine how male factors relate to the semen physical and biological characteristics.
This research aims to understand the impact of fertility preservation consultation on transgender patients' projection and how the possibility of preserving gametes influences transgender people's transition paths, parenthood projects and health and health of transgender people through qualitative interviews. This research will also study the representations of members of medical and reproductive biology teams the possible use of stored gametes, and how these representations influence their clinical practice. clinical practice. To answer the research question, we plan to include 30 patients who have consulted for fertility preservation at the at the CECOS of the Tenon hospital, located in the 20th arrondissement of Paris, and 20 members of the center's healthcare team. care team.
This prospective study is subject to approval of institutional medical research ethics committee. Patient undergoing second cycle IVF will be enrolled into the intervention group. Intervention involved using a clinical decision support tool, Opt-IVF to guide gonadotrophins dosing and trigger dates for a personalized controlled ovarian stimulation cycle based on the distribution of follicle sizes on day 1 and day 5, and hormone dosages given on day 1 to 4. Patients will undergo transvaginal ultrasound exam on day 1 and day 5 of the cycle to determine the number and size of follicles present. The data is used in the Opt-IVF decision support tool to suggest Gonadotropin dosage for D5 and beyond and to recommend the antagonist start day and trigger day. Clinical investigators will not override the Opt-IVF recommended dosage in any patients.
The investigators propose a pilot study to determine if autologous platelet-rich plasma (PRP) improves ovarian reserves and In-vitro fertilisation (IVF) outcomes in women with diminished ovarian reserve / premature ovarian insufficiency.
The LUMO study is a multicenter, randomized controlled trial that evaluates the effectivity of luteal phase support in MOH/IUI treatment.
Background: When a cancer is diagnosed in a child, the urgency is to take therapeutic actions. Children and their families face the reality of cancer and the reality of the treatments that, in addition to be overwhelming, might cause infertility. Immediately after the diagnosis, a fertility preservation consultation is proposed to discuss fertility preservation options. In practice, it is often difficult to organize. Several years after the end of treatments, a second information consultation is proposed to inform about fertility, evaluate the fertility status and propose a second line of Fertility Preservation when possible. The literature reflects a lack of knowledge regarding the degree of fertility-related distress among pediatric cancer patients as well as insufficient tools at the disposal of medical doctors and nurses to discuss about reproduction with children and young adolescents. Project objective: Understand how young cancer patients and their parents felt about sterility risk at the diagnostic time and now as cured adolescents. Patients & Methods: 300 patients (15-25 years) from 5 different centers (20 patients per year and per center for 3 years) will be included in this study at the information consultation. They will be surveyed through self-administered questionnaires and semidirected interviews that will 1) retrieve perceptions and emotional being of children during the fertility preservation consultation; 2) assess the decision-making process of parents and family since the fertility preservation consultation through the patient's speech; 3) interview the patients about personal history and experience of cancer and consequences of potential fertility impairment and 4) survey the current experience and projections in the future and evaluate their reaction to the proposition of a second line of Fertility Preservation. Expected results: what points should the doctor / psychologist discuss with pediatric cancer survivors in response to their fertility stress? and how to do it? for better initial and follow-up care to improve their quality of life after cancer.
This is an observational cohort study to examine the use of a novel proposed ovarian reserve monitoring algorithm to (1) identify patients who are at risk of DOR and POI from gonadotoxic therapy, (2) minimize time from treatment to utilization of assisted reproductive technologies, and (3) improves prognosis for successful ART based on AFC for patients who pursue fertility or fertility preservation.
