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 COMPARATORPatients 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).
"Standard" rFSH dose
ACTIVE COMPARATOR"Standard" dose of rFSH
Interventions
"Individual" rFSH dose (50, 75 or 100 IU rFSH/day)
Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Age between 25-39 years
- First stimulation with rFSH only
- Indication for intrauterine insemination with standard rFSH starting dose
- Regular menstrual bleeding with a cycle between 21-35 days
- Two ovaries
- Bilateral tuba patency
- Semen analysis must be sufficient for insemination according to the diagnostic analysis.
You may not qualify if:
- More than three former stimulated intrauterine insemination cycles
