GONAL-f (follitropin alfa) will be administered subcutaneously based on ART treatment guidelines, which determined the optimal dose of r-hFSH based on subject baseline characteristics/predictors of ovarian response throughout stimulation cycle.
When at least 1 follicle greater than or equal to (\>=) 18 millimeter (mm) and 2 follicles \>=16 mm in diameter develop, 250 microgram (mcg) of recombinant human chorionic gonadotrophin (r-hCG) will be administered.

Number of Oocytes Retrieved
Mean number of oocytes retrieved on the day of ovum pick up (OPU) was calculated. Oocyte retrieval was a technique used in in-vitro fertilization in order to remove oocytes from the ovary of the female, enabling fertilization outside the body. As per statistical analysis plan, efficacy analysis were performed for only those dose groups (Gonal-f 75 IU, Gonal-f 112.5 IU, Gonal-f 150 IU, Gonal-f 187.5 IU and Gonal-f 225 IU) which included more than 5 subjects.
Time frame: Ovum pick up day (34 to 38 hours post r-hCG administration)
Total Dose of Recombinant Human Follicle Stimulating Hormone (r-hFSH)
As per statistical analysis plan, efficacy analysis were performed for only those dose groups (Gonal-f 75 IU, Gonal-f 112.5 IU, Gonal-f 150 IU, Gonal-f 187.5 IU and Gonal-f 225 IU) which included more than 5 subjects.
Time frame: up to end of stimulation cycle (approximately 31 days)
Mean Number of Ovarian Stimulation Days
The mean number of stimulation days were determined based on the treatment administration information collected in the case report form. Ovarian stimulation included time from first r-hFSH injection (stimulation Day) until day on which r-hCG was administered (r-hCG day). As per statistical analysis plan, efficacy analysis were performed for only those dose groups (Gonal-f 75 IU, Gonal-f 112.5 IU, Gonal-f 150 IU, Gonal-f 187.5 IU and Gonal-f 225 IU) which included more than 5 subjects.
Time frame: up to end of stimulation cycle (approximately 31 days)
Percentage of Cycles Cancelled Due to Excessive or Inadequate Response to r-hFSH
As per statistical analysis plan, efficacy analysis were performed for only those dose groups (Gonal-f 75 IU, Gonal-f 112.5 IU, Gonal-f 150 IU, Gonal-f 187.5 IU and Gonal-f 225 IU) which included more than 5 subjects.
Time frame: up to end of stimulation cycle (approximately 31 days)

Number of Subjects Needing Dose Adjustment
Number of subjects needing increase in dose, decrease in dose or increase and decrease both in dose were reported. As per statistical analysis plan, efficacy analysis were performed for only those dose groups (Gonal-f 75 IU, Gonal-f 112.5 IU, Gonal-f 150 IU, Gonal-f 187.5 IU and Gonal-f 225 IU) which included more than 5 subjects.
Time frame: 6 days post r-hFSH treatment
Mean Daily Recombinant Human Follicle Stimulating Hormone (r-hFSH) Dose
As per statistical analysis plan, efficacy analysis were performed for only those dose groups (Gonal-f 75 IU, Gonal-f 112.5 IU, Gonal-f 150 IU, Gonal-f 187.5 IU and Gonal-f 225 IU) which included more than 5 subjects.
Time frame: up to end of stimulation cycle (approximately 31 days)
Embryo Implantation Rate
Embryo implantation rate was measured as the number of gestational sacs observed divided by the number of embryos transferred multiplied by 100. As per statistical analysis plan, efficacy analysis were performed for only those dose groups (Gonal-f 75 IU, Gonal-f 112.5 IU, Gonal-f 150 IU, Gonal-f 187.5 IU and Gonal-f 225 IU) which included more than 5 subjects.
Time frame: 35-42 days post r-hCG administration
Overall Pregnancy Rate, Clinical Rate and Multiple Pregnancy Rate
Overall pregnancy rate was defined as the percentage of subjects with serum beta-hCG levels greater than 10 IU/L. Clinical pregnancy rate was defined as the percentage of subjects with at least 1 ultrasound confirmed gestational sac, with or without foetal heart activity. Multiple pregnancy rate was defined as the percentage of subjects with more than 1 ultrasound confirmed gestational sac in the uterus with fetal heart activity. As per statistical analysis plan, efficacy analysis were performed for only those dose groups (Gonal-f 75 IU, Gonal-f 112.5 IU, Gonal-f 150 IU, Gonal-f 187.5 IU and Gonal-f 225 IU) which included more than 5 subjects.
Time frame: 35-42 days post r-hCG administration
