Summary

Ovulatory dysfunction affects 18 to 25% of infertile women, the most common identifiable condition is polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS). The most frequent symptoms of PCOS are oligo-anovulation, hyperandrogenism and polycystic ovary appearance. Hyperandrogenism is the main contributor that affects oocyte and embryo quality and decreases the success rates in PCOS patients undergoing IVF treatments. The aim of this study is to determine the effect of hyperandrogenism as an independent factor on IVF success rates and oocyte/embryo quality in PCOS patients undergoing IVF.

Trial Design

2Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Group I: PCOS patients with no clinical or biochemical hyperandrogenismExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
In this cohort, women have not be affected by either clinical of biochemical hyperandrogenism. The PCOS diagnosis will be based on oligo-anovulation and on polycystic ovaries during an ultrasound
Group II: PCOS patients with clinical or biochemical hyperandrogenismExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Clinical hyperandrogenism consists of patients with one of the following conditions: Acne, Hirsutism (using modified Ferriman-Gallwey (FG) score) or Androgenic alopecia Biochemical hyperandrogenism consists of elevated serum level of at least one of the following hormones: Total testosterone, free testosterone, DHEAS, androstenedione using the cut-offs adopted by the laboratory.
