What this trial studies

This clinical trial aims to compare the effects of Dydrogesterone with GnRH agonist and antagonist protocols on preventing premature LH surge and improving the quality of oocytes and embryos in women undergoing intra-cytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI). It is a randomized controlled trial involving 387 infertile women at Beni-Suef University Hospital, who will be divided into three groups based on the treatment protocol they receive. Participants will undergo thorough evaluations and assessments before being enrolled in the study, ensuring they meet specific inclusion and exclusion criteria.

Who should consider this trial

Good fit: Ideal candidates for this study are infertile women who are scheduled for ICSI and meet the inclusion criteria.

Not a fit: Patients with severe endometriosis, uterine malformations, or uncontrolled endocrinopathies may not benefit from this study.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this study could enhance IVF outcomes by improving oocyte and embryo quality, leading to higher pregnancy rates.

How similar studies have performed: Other studies have shown promising results with similar approaches in optimizing IVF protocols, suggesting potential for success in this trial.
