NCT ID:
NCT02772120
Brief Summary:
The aim of this study is to test the hypothesis that the pregnancy rates of women (ages 18-50 years) undergoing transfer of vitrified-warmed blastocysts (frozen at less than 41 years of age) as part of their IVF treatment are not different with respect to the administration of progesterone (Crinone® 8% vaginal gel versus intramuscular progesterone).
Detailed Description:
The hypothesis of this study is that the type of progesterone administered (intramuscular progesterone or Crinone® 8% vaginal gel) does not affect implantation and clinical pregnancy rates in women receiving cryo-thawed blastocysts that were produced using their own eggs and frozen before age 41 years. Both intramuscular progesterone (25-100 mg compounded in oil) or vaginal progesterone (Crinone® 8% vaginal progesterone gel) are widely used for luteal phase support in patients receiving vitrified-warmed embryos. Crinone® 8% is FDA approved for progesterone supplementation or replacement as part of an Assisted Reproductive Technology (ART) treatment for infertile women with progesterone deficiency (FDA approval letter, 1997).
