| Main Objective: To demonstrate that highly purified Menotrophin produces significant lower progesterone (P4) serum levels during the follicular phase in comparison to Follitropin alpha in the treatment of subfertile females undergoing IVF using a GnRH antagonist protocol for pituitary down-regulation.;Secondary Objective: to investigate • if the progesterone serum levels during the follicular phase might be a useful predictor for the success rate of the ongoing-pregnancy rates in the Menotrophin (HP-hMG) group and the Follitropin alpha group. • if highly purified Menotrophin is non-inferior or whether there are differences existing to Follitropin alpha in the treatment of subfertile females in an IVF programme with respect to efficacy and safety. ;Primary end point(s): Primary endpoint is the serum progesterone (P4) level in the morning of the day of hCG administration. | — |
