Levothyroxine for IVF in women with mild thyroid issues
Part of Hormones & metabolism, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study tests whether taking levothyroxine (a thyroid hormone medication) before IVF or ICSI with frozen embryo transfer improves pregnancy rates in women with subclinical hypothyroidism (a mild thyroid condition). It aims to see if this treatment helps women like you have a better chance of getting pregnant.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are a woman between 18 and 45 years old.
- You have subclinical hypothyroidism (a slightly high TSH level, between 4.2 and 10, with normal thyroid hormones).
- You are planning to have IVF or ICSI with a frozen embryo transfer.
- You do not have overt hypothyroidism (very high TSH or very low thyroid hormones).
- You have not taken thyroid-affecting medications (like levothyroxine, amiodarone, methimazole, or propylthiouracil) in the past month.

This trial studies whether prednisone (an anti-inflammatory steroid) plus aspirin can improve IVF success in people who have thyroid autoimmunity, shown by specific thyroid antibody blood tests. If you qualify, the study may help find a treatment approach that supports embryo implantation and pregnancy chances.
This trial tests whether adding a low-dose thyroid hormone (levothyroxine) to the standard fertility treatment letrozole improves pregnancy rates in women with both PCOS and mild hypothyroidism. It may help if you have trouble getting pregnant and have these two conditions.
This study looks at how follitropin delta is used in real clinics to help women stimulate eggs for IVF or ICSI. It may help doctors fine-tune dosing by comparing outcomes in everyday practice.
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 a thyroid hormone medication (levothyroxine) can improve heart function in children who have slightly high TSH levels but normal thyroid hormones. It may help children aged 4 to 15 with subclinical hypothyroidism.
This trial compares two starting doses of follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) during in vitro fertilization (IVF) to see which works better. FSH helps your ovaries produce eggs, and the study aims to find the best dose for women with good fertility prospects.
