The purpose of this study is to compare two different in vitro fertilization (IVF) treatments: conventional IVF protocol and minimal stimulation IVF protocol, in terms of success rates, stress of treatment, drug-related side effects, multiple pregnancies and cost of treatment.
A random population of 564 sub-fertile women or couples with a female between ages of 18 and 38 years and a desire to undergo their first IVF cycle will be included in this outpatient clinical trial. The participation in this study will be approximately six months with a total of 20 to 25 visits. After successful completion of the pre-screening tests participants are randomized into one of the two arms of the study: Arm A - mini IVF protocol, and Arm B - conventional IVF protocol.
