Study of fluid around eggs for fertility research

This study looks at tiny particles and molecules in the fluid that surrounds your eggs. Doctors want to understand these better, which may help improve fertility treatments in the future.

This trial studies tiny biological messages (exosomes carrying microRNA) found in “follicle fluid” to see how they may relate to egg development during IVF with ICSI. You may be able to contribute samples if you are planning IVF+ICSI and meet the health and pregnancy safety requirements.

This trial compares two ways of preparing sperm for IVF: a new microfluidic chip method versus the standard density-gradient centrifugation. It aims to see which method leads to more successful fertilizations and pregnancies.

This study compares two ways of preparing sperm for IVF (a microfluidic chip versus a centrifuge method). It aims to see which method leads to more genetically normal embryos (euploid) when doing PGT (pre-implantation genetic testing).

This study tests an IVF approach that changes how ovarian stimulation is started, helps retrieve eggs more effectively, and may delay embryo transfer. It may help people who have many small eggs (called antral follicles) and higher AMH levels, which can affect how IVF works.

This study looks at whether a natural stress hormone (cortisol) in the blood is also present in the fluid around the eggs right before ovulation. It aims to see if this could affect the health of eggs and improve IVF outcomes.
