Trial Outcomes & Findings for Acute Effects of Progesterone on LH Pulses During the Follicular Phase (CRM006) (NCT NCT01602679)

NCT ID: NCT01602679

Last Updated: 2018-10-16

Results Overview

Measure
Oral Micronized Progesterone Suspension, Then Placebo
Participants first received oral micronized progesterone (100 mg p.o.) suspension. After a washout period of approximately 20 days, they then received placebo. oral micronized progesterone suspension: oral micronized progesterone (100 mg p.o.) suspension
Placebo, Then Oral Micronized Progesterone Suspension
Participants first received Placebo. After a washout period of approximately 20 days, they then received oral micronized progesterone suspension. Placebo contains only inert ingredients and is not expected to exert any direct physiological effects Placebo: Placebo contains only inert ingredients and is not expected to exert any direct physiological effects
