Part of Brain & nervous system, Mental health clinical trials.
This study tests whether warm footbaths can improve the chances of success with IVF (in vitro fertilization, where eggs are fertilized in a lab). If you are starting IVF and have certain types of infertility, this simple relaxation technique might help.

This study tests whether a program that helps couples reduce exposure to everyday chemicals that could affect fertility improves the chances of success with their first IVF (in vitro fertilization) treatment. It's designed for couples who are just starting their first cycle and want to make their environment as healthy as possible.
This study looks at levels of a hormone called relaxin in your blood to see if it relates to how the lining of your womb prepares for an embryo transfer. The goal is to learn how to improve IVF success.
This study follows people trying to have babies through fertility treatment to understand how environmental factors and lifestyle habits affect treatment success. By sharing your background and habits, you help researchers learn what may improve fertility outcomes.
This study compares two different timings for a lab procedure called assisted hatching (making a small opening in the embryo's outer shell) to see if one helps more embryos implant. You may be eligible if you're doing IVF with a frozen embryo transfer of a single screened embryo.
This study examines how the bacteria in your gut and your partner's gut may affect the success of IVF (in vitro fertilization) treatment. Researchers will collect samples and health information from couples before IVF to see if certain bacterial patterns predict better pregnancy outcomes.
This study looks at whether having a tattoo affects the success of fertility treatment (IVF). If you are having IVF and meet the basic health requirements, your participation could help doctors understand this possible connection.
