NCT01576991

Brief Summary

The purpose of the study is to describe the relationship between leukocyte, granulose cell and polar body telomere length, telomere injury foci (TIFs), polarized light microscopy of oocyte spindles and their frequency in the eggs from older women and associations with aneuploidy.
