Infertility, Intrauterine Insemination, Reproduction
Conditions
Brief summary
This study is intended for women undergoing their first cycle of 3 intrauterine inseminations. All 3 inseminations will be personalized by using algorithms to determine the dose of study medication.
Detailed description
Study medication dosage for the first insemination cycle will be based on the woman's age as well as her Anti-Mullerian Hormone (AMH) levels. Study medication dosage for the second and third insemination will depend on ovarian response (number of follicles) during previous insemination cycle and woman's age
Interventions
Study medication doses during all 3 insemination will be personalized using a suggested algorithm
