Brief summary

The current trial is intended to assess the efficacy of oral versus vaginal progesterone for luteal support in frozen IVF cycles.

Detailed description

Progesteron is used for luteal phase support in IVF cycles. Progesterone can be administered vaginally and orally. Duphaston is an oral progesterone drug, which has recentlly been proven effective in fresh cycle IVF. Yet, less is known regarding its efficacy in frozen cycle IVF. Thus, the objective of our trial is to compare the efficacy of vaginal and oral progesterone in frozen IVF cycles.

Interventions
