Trial Outcomes & Findings for Estrogen Sensitivity and Ovulatory Dysfunction in Obesity (NCT NCT01381016)

NCT ID: NCT01381016

Last Updated: 2015-04-20

Results Overview

The study is powered on luteinizing hormone pulse amplitude because it is the clinical outcome for which the most data is available. The primary comparison is whether there is a significant reduction in the pulse amplitude in the obese between the pre- and post-treatment periods and whether there is no change in the pulse amplitude in the normal weight patients between the pre and post-treatment periods.
