Digestive symptoms during IVF in PCOS and egg freezing
Part of Cancer, Hormones & metabolism, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study asks about digestive symptoms like irritable bowel syndrome during fertility treatments. It compares people with PCOS starting IVF to those freezing eggs, using simple questionnaires to understand how common these symptoms are.

This study compares two ways of retrieving eggs for fertility treatment in women with PCOS. One method is called IVM (maturation of eggs in the lab) and the other is conventional ovarian stimulation (taking hormones to mature eggs in the body). The goal is to see how each affects a woman's physical and mental well-being during the treatment process.
This study tests whether a fecal microbiota transplant (putting healthy bacteria from a donor into your gut) can help women with polyendocrine ovarian syndrome and obesity improve their chances of a successful frozen embryo transfer. It may help by balancing the bacteria in your gut, which could improve your overall health and fertility.
This study tests if a keto diet can improve symptoms of PCOS. You'll follow your normal routine while researchers monitor changes.
This study tests a way to mature eggs outside the body for women with PCOS or high ovarian reserve. It might help avoid side effects from fertility medications.
This study tests whether a specific nutrition plan can help women with PCOS improve their health. You would follow a guided diet and have check-ins to see how it affects your symptoms and well-being.
This study tests if a diet low in quickly digested carbs (low glycemic index) and high in fiber can help women with PCOS who are overweight. You'll follow this eating plan and not change your exercise, to see how it affects your PCOS symptoms over several months.
