Vaginal progesterone 600mg
Vaginal progesterone 600mg daily (200mg tid) will be started and maintained until 10 weeks of pregnancy or either up to menses or up to negative pregnancy test performed 10 days after ET
Vaginal progesterone 600mg daily
If endometrial thickness (ETH) ≥7 mm and follicle dominance/ultrasound (US) signs of ovulation P levels are measured: if P ≤1.5 patients start LPS, else cycle is cancelled. If ETH \<7mm and no follicle dominance: estradiol dose is increased to 9mg/day and new US is performed up to 4 days after. If persistent thin endometrium after dose increase, cycle is cancelled. 24-48h pre ET, E2 and P are measured. in the morning, pre VMP dose, or at least 6h after last progesterone dose. If progesterone \<10ng/ml, additional 300mg daily oral micronized progesterone is administered on the day of the ET and maintained until 10 weeks pregnancy or up to menses or up to negative pregnancy test 10 days after ET. ET will be performed with available blastocysts 6 days after start of LPS. 3-5 days, after ET, a blood test for P measurement will be performed in the morning, before VMP dose, or at least 6h after last progesterone dose. 10 days after ET, the last P test will be done with pregnancy test.
Vaginal progesterone 800mg
Vaginal progesterone 800mg daily (400mg bid) will be started and maintained until 10 weeks of pregnancy or either up to menses or up to negative pregnancy test performed 10 days after ET.
Vaginal progesterone 800mg daily
If endometrial thickness (ETH) ≥7 mm and follicle dominance/ultrasound (US) signs of ovulation P levels are measured: if P ≤1.5 patients start LPS, else cycle is cancelled. If ETH \<7mm and no follicle dominance: estradiol dose is increased to 9mg/day and new US is performed up to 4 days after. If persistent thin endometrium after dose increase, cycle is cancelled. 24-48h pre ET, E2 and P are measured. in the morning, pre VMP dose, or at least 6h after last progesterone dose. If progesterone \<10ng/ml, additional 300mg daily oral micronized progesterone is administered on the day of the ET and maintained until 10 weeks pregnancy or up to menses or up to negative pregnancy test 10 days after ET. ET will be performed with available blastocysts 6 days after start of LPS. 3-5 days, after ET, a blood test for P measurement will be performed in the morning, before VMP dose, or at least 6h after last progesterone dose. 10 days after ET, the last P test will be done with pregnancy test.
