Comparing two methods for pituitary suppression in egg donation
Part of Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This trial compares two methods of temporarily 'turning off' the pituitary gland to prepare for egg donation. It may be a good fit if you are healthy, have good ovarian reserve (shown by follicles on ultrasound), and meet egg donation program rules.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Your BMI must be between 18 and 29.9 (inclusive).
- An ultrasound must show at least 12 small resting follicles in your ovaries.
- You must be cleared for the egg donation program (no disqualifying conditions).
- You must have a normal chromosome test and no active sexually transmitted infections.
- You cannot have used combined hormonal birth control (like the pill) in the month before starting treatment.

This trial compares two different medications (Corifollitropin alpha and daily rFSH) to stimulate egg production in healthy egg donors. It aims to see if a single injection of Corifollitropin alpha works as well as the usual daily shots, making the process simpler and more comfortable.
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 giving a hormone called hCG before starting IVF can improve outcomes for women with low egg reserve (low AMH). It is designed for women under 40 who are early in their IVF journey.
This trial compares two different medications (Prolutex or Cetrotide) used during a freeze-all IVF cycle to prevent early ovulation. The goal is to see which medication works better for women who are at risk of ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome, need genetic testing, or choose to freeze all embryos for personal reasons.
This study compares two ways to prepare the ovaries for egg retrieval before IVF: using a progestin hormone or a GnRH antagonist. The goal is to see which method leads to more successful embryo transfers.
This trial compares two hormone protocols for ovarian stimulation in women having their first cycle—either to freeze eggs for fertility preservation or for IVF with genetic testing. The goal is to see which method leads to more usable eggs while being easier on the patient.
