Study Group

Start with estradiol valerate (Progynova, 2x2mg per day, 2mg in the morning, 2mg in the evening), orally, during 6-10 consecutive days from day 25 of the cycle onwards.

If day 25 is Monday: 6 days Tuesday: 10 days Wednesday: 9 days Thursday: 8 days Friday: 7 days Saturday: 6 days Sunday: 6 days of Progynova, 2x2 mg per day After this pretreatment: Standard GnRH antagonist treatment protocol with start rFSH (Puregon®) at a dose of 150 IU From day 2 of the cycle onwards; GnRH antagonist (Orgalutran®) initiation on D6 of the stimulation

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Estradiol valerate

Intervention Type DRUG

Experimental group: estradiol valerate (Progynova, 2x2mg per day, 2mg in the morning, 2mg in the evening), orally, during 6-10 consecutive days from day 25 of the cycle onwards.
