Improving egg collection for low responders in IVF treatment
Part of Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 40 years old
- You have been diagnosed with a reason to need IVF with ICSI (intracytoplasmic sperm injection)
- In a previous IVF cycle, you had fewer than 9 eggs retrieved, and your AMH (a hormone that reflects egg supply) is 1.2 or higher and/or your antral follicle count (a measure of egg reserve) is 5 or more
- Your previous IVF cycle used a certain type and dose of fertility medication (no more than 225 IU of FSH, either alone or combined with hMG)
- You have regular menstrual cycles (every 24 to 35 days)
- You have an intact uterus (no structural issues that would interfere with pregnancy)
- You have sperm available from ejaculate or testicular biopsy

Other trials that look related to this one.
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 trial tests whether adding growth hormone and DHEA to your IVF medications can help women with low ovarian reserve get more eggs and improve pregnancy chances. It may be an option if you are over 40, have had few eggs before, or have low egg count markers.
This trial tests a fertility drug called follitropin delta for women undergoing IVF. It checks if using this drug with a specific hormone-lowering protocol helps produce eggs for fertilisation.
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.
This study tests whether giving an extra hormone called LH before egg retrieval helps improve IVF outcomes for women with naturally low LH levels. If you qualify, you may receive this added hormone to see if it helps your eggs mature better.
This trial compares two hormone injection protocols to help women with low egg supply grow eggs and collect eggs for IVF. If you qualify, your embryos will be frozen first (“freeze-all”) and then transferred later as one frozen blastocyst.
