Brief Summary

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

The objective is to test the hypothesis that luteal phase support with vaginal progesterone leads to a higher clinical pregnancy rate (primary outcome) and live birth rate (secondary outcome) when compared to no luteal phase support in a program of intrauterine insemination (IUI) after controlled ovarian stimulation with gonadotrophins. Additionally, the length of the luteal phase will be recorded (secondary outcome) in order to detect luteal phase defects/insufficiencies in the absence of luteal phase suppletion as well as luteal phase prolongation in case of luteal phase support which may be a burden for the patients waiting for the outcome of the treatment.
