Cortical Puncture to Improve Egg Reserve and IVF Success
Part of Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study tests whether a procedure that stimulates the outer layer of the ovary can help women with low egg reserves produce more eggs during fertility treatment. Women will undergo this procedure before starting IVF to see if it improves their chances of success.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 20 and 45 years old
- You have been diagnosed with diminished ovarian reserve (low egg count and hormone levels) confirmed by two specific blood and ultrasound tests
- You are planning to do IVF or ICSI treatment and want to freeze all embryos from your first cycle
- You plan to do a second egg-retrieval cycle within 4 months using the same stimulation protocol as your first cycle
- You have not had any ovarian surgery, endometriosis, large cysts, or other ovarian conditions
- You do not have serious heart, kidney, blood clotting, or autoimmune diseases, and are not taking chemotherapy or certain immunosuppressant drugs

This trial tests if a type of acupuncture (electro-thumbtack needle) can improve live birth rates in women with diminished ovarian reserve (low egg supply). It may help couples trying to conceive naturally or through fertility treatments.
This trial tests whether a special herbal formula, given before an IVF cycle, can improve pregnancy success in women with diminished ovarian reserve. It is for women who are aged 22 to 39, have low egg supply, and have a Traditional Chinese Medicine diagnosis of Kidney Deficiency.
This study tests whether combining traditional Chinese medicine with standard Western treatments can help women with low ovarian reserve (fewer eggs than expected for their age) get pregnant naturally. It may offer a new option for women who have been trying to conceive for at least a year.
This trial tests whether injecting your own fat-derived stem cells (ADRCs) can improve ovarian function in women with diminished ovarian reserve (DOR). Doctors will take a small amount of fat from you, process it to get stem cells, and inject those cells back into your ovaries.
This trial studies whether a “mechanical stimulation” procedure can help small egg-making structures in the ovary start to work again in people with primary ovarian insufficiency. If the procedure shows signs of response, you may then move on to further fertility treatment, including IVF.
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.
