Brief Summary

Delaying first childbirth is a progressive trend in the developed societies. Several theories tried to explain the reproductive aging, in purpose to hasten it. One of the theories include mitochondrial dysfunction with aging. In this study we will investigate the potential of treating elderly IVF patients with CoQ10, a mitochondrial stimulator, to improve follicle cells' properties.
