Timing changes during ovarian stimulation for IVF
Part of Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study tests whether changing the timing of hormones during ovarian stimulation can improve IVF results for people with certain ovarian reserve levels. It may help find a stimulation approach that works better for first-time (or second) IVF cycles.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Be age 18 to under 42
- Have specific egg supply levels (AFC 5–19 and AMH 1.1–2.4)
- Have a BMI between 18.5 and under 29
- Be doing your first or second IVF/ICSI cycle using an antagonist protocol, with regular periods (22–35 days)
- Have two ovaries and plan a day-3 embryo transfer (one or two days)
- Not have major health problems that prevent IVF (like uncontrolled diabetes/thyroid issues, significant anemia, serious heart/liver/kidney disease, or blood clot/stroke history)

This trial tests a new way to stimulate ovaries after ovulation using a single injection of Elonva, compared to a standard method starting on day 2 of the menstrual cycle. It aims to see which approach leads to more mature eggs for IVF or ICSI.
This study compares two methods of stimulating the ovaries before IVF: one using a standard hormone (hCG) and another using a different protocol. The goal is to see if the new method works as well as the standard one, while possibly being more cost-effective.
This trial tests whether a lower or higher dose of follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) works better for women with normal egg supply. If you are starting your first or second IVF cycle, you may be able to join.
This trial tests whether doing two shorter rounds of hormone stimulation in one menstrual cycle (dual ovarian stimulation) leads to more live births than the usual two separate stimulation cycles for women who have a low egg reserve. The goal is to find a better way to help women who have had limited success with IVF.
This study compares transferring embryos on day 2 versus day 3 after egg collection in women over 35 with low egg numbers or low AMH levels (a hormone that reflects egg reserve). The goal is to see which timing improves pregnancy success rates in this harder-to-treat group.
This trial tests whether adding a personalized amount of “LH” during IVF hormone stimulation can help your ovaries respond better. It may be useful if you’ve had a weaker IVF response before and fit specific age and egg-quality markers.
