Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Ongoing Pregnancy Rate
Ongoing Pregnancy Rate (OPR) The percentage of embryo transfer cycles with an intrauterine pregnancy sustained beyond 20 gestational weeks, with a gestational sac and fetal cardiac activity confirmed via transvaginal ultrasound, out of all embryo transfer cycles.
First cycle of IVF/ICSI-ET (the first frozen-thawed embryo transfer cycle if all embryos are cryopreserved after oocyte retrieval)
Study Arms (2)
Experimental: GLP-1 RAs combined with healthy lifestyle education
EXPERIMENTALBenaglutide injection (Fisuomei®, National Medicine Standard No. S20230042, Shanghai Renhui Biopharmaceutical Co., Ltd.) was administered at an initial dose of 0.06 mg per injection, three times daily, via subcutaneous injection 5 minutes before meals. After establishing tolerance, the dose was increased weekly by 0.04 mg per injection, reaching 0.2 mg per injection after four weeks, administered three times daily for a total of 12 weeks.Assisted reproductive treatment was initiated upon completion of the 12-week intervention.
metformin and healthy lifestyle education
ACTIVE COMPARATORMetformin hydrochloride (Glucophage®, National Medicine Standard No. H20023370, Shanghai Bristol-Myers Squibb Pharmaceuticals Co., Ltd.) was administered at a dose of 0.5 g twice daily for 12 weeks, taken with meals. Assisted reproductive treatment was initiated upon completion of the 12-week intervention.
