Extra hCG injections to help pregnancy in IHH
Part of Hormones & metabolism, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This trial studies whether adding extra hCG shots improves pregnancy outcomes for people diagnosed with IHH, a hormone-related cause of not starting periods. If you’re trying to get pregnant, it may help test whether this added treatment improves your chances.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have a clinical diagnosis of IHH (not having periods starting, linked to low brain-pituitary hormone signals).
- Your blood LH and FSH levels are low (both under 5 IU/L) or your results are considered normal for the study.
- Your brain MRI shows no tumor or other organic problem in the hypothalamus/pituitary area.
- You’re of childbearing age and you want to become pregnant.
- You do NOT have premature ovarian insufficiency or premature ovarian failure.
- Your amenorrhea is NOT due to a known problem in the hypothalamus or pituitary (like a lesion).

This study tests whether adding support in the period after ovulation (the “luteal phase”) helps people who are starting IUI (intrauterine insemination) because their infertility is unexplained. It’s designed to see if the added care improves chances when mild ovarian stimulation is used.
This trial tests whether giving extra luteinizing hormone (LH) can improve embryo quality in women with very low LH levels during IVF. It may help you if you have low LH and are using a specific type of fertility medication.
This trial tests whether giving a medication called a GnRH agonist during the luteal phase (the time after egg retrieval) can help with IVF success. It is for people who are using a specific medication protocol (recombinant FSH with an antagonist) and have certain hormone levels.
This trial tests whether adding a hormone (r-hLH) to standard ovarian stimulation medicine helps women aged 35 to 40 produce more eggs during IVF. It may be a good option if you have lower ovarian reserve and are starting your first or second IVF cycle.
This trial tests whether giving extra LH hormone during an IVF cycle can improve outcomes for women who naturally have low LH levels. It may help your eggs develop better.
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.
