Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The purpose of this study is to test if recombinant follicle stimulating hormone (rFSH) given in individual doses, according to a nomogram we have constructed based on our results from a previous study, results in more patients maturing 2-3 follicles compared to standard dose.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

"Individual" or "standard" rFSH dose

Patients were randomized to recieve "individual" (50, 75 or 100 IU/day) or "standard" (75 IU/day) rFSh dose. The individual dose was prescribed according to a dosage nomogram based on the patient's body weight (kg) and the total antral follicle count (Freiesleben NC et al., RBMOnline 2009;17:632-64).
