Comparing short vs long Clomid for IVF stimulation
Treatments studied
Part of Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study tests whether a shorter or longer course of Clomid (a fertility medicine) works better for women who are expected to have a low response to ovarian stimulation. It may help those with a lower egg reserve still produce enough eggs for IVF.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are planning to do IVF or freeze all your eggs/embryos for later use.
- Your antral follicle count (a measure of egg reserve on ultrasound) is 2 or more.
- You are under 45 years old when starting the stimulation medicines.
- Your male partner has some sperm (not a condition where no sperm is present).
- You do not have a normal or high egg reserve (you are considered a 'poor responder' by your clinic).

This trial compares two doses of follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) to find out which dose helps women with normal ovarian reserve have better IVF outcomes. It aims to improve the chances of a successful pregnancy.
This study compares two methods of maturing eggs before fertilization for in vitro fertilization (IVF) to see which one works better. One method uses a new technique called CAPA-IVM, and the other is a standard method with minimal stimulation. The study aims to help people with infertility by finding a more effective and potentially safer way to grow eggs.
This study tests different medication approaches to help women who had a low number of eggs in a previous IVF cycle produce more eggs this time. The goal is to find a better stimulation method for women with this 'low response' pattern.
This study compares two ways of giving fertility medication to stimulate the ovaries before retrieving eggs for IVF (in vitro fertilization). One method starts after ovulation and uses a drug called Elonva without a routine blocking medication, while the other is the standard approach starting early in the cycle. The goal is to see which approach leads to better outcomes for people undergoing IVF or ICSI (a procedure where a single sperm is injected into an egg).
This trial tests two different starting doses of a fertility drug (follicle-stimulating hormone, or FSH) during a specific IVF preparation method called PPOS. The goal is to see which dose leads to better egg development for women with good fertility prospects.
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.
