NCT00374634

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to test if recombinant follicle stimulating hormone (rFSH) given in individual doses, according to a nomogram we have constructed based on our results from a previous study, results in more patients maturing 2-3 follicles compared to standard dose.

Study Arms (2)

"Individual" or "standard" rFSH dose

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Patients were randomized to recieve "individual" (50, 75 or 100 IU/day) or "standard" (75 IU/day) rFSh dose. The individual dose was prescribed according to a dosage nomogram based on the patient's body weight (kg) and the total antral follicle count (Freiesleben NC et al., RBMOnline 2009;17:632-64).

Drug: rFSH drug dose

"Standard" rFSH dose

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

"Standard" dose of rFSH

Drug: "Standard" rFSH dose

Interventions

"Individual" rFSH dose (50, 75 or 100 IU rFSH/day)

"Individual" or "standard" rFSH dose

"Standard" rFSH dose was 75 IU/day

"Standard" rFSH dose
