Brief summary
The goal of this observational study is to evaluate whether supplementation with the Ovosicare® Fertility food supplement increases the possibility of becoming pregnant in women aged between 32 and 38 years who have been trying to become pregnant for at least 6 months before starting supplementation.
Detailed description
The duration of participation in the study for each patient will be a maximum of 18 months. This follow-up period may be shorter if a pregnancy occurs. The number of visits throughout the study will be a total of three. Please note that you will not have to undergo additional tests or attend any extraordinary visits due to participating in this study, since the procedures you will undergo are the same as those routinely carried out in clinical practice.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Evaluate the rate of spontaneous pregnancy in women between 32 and 38 years old after a maximum of 6 months of supplementation with Ovosicare Fertility | From enrollment to visit 2 (9 months) | Women suspected of being pregnant will undergo a blood test to detect the hormone beta-hCG and a transvaginal ultrasound to confirm the pregnancy. |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Evaluate changes in analytical parameters in blood: Biochemistry panel | From enrollment to visit 2 (9 months) | Description: To evaluate physiological changes by measuring biochemistry levels in blood from patients who do not achieve spontaneous clinical pregnancy after 9 months from the start of supplementation. |
| Evaluate changes in analytical parameters in blood: Hormonal panel | From enrollment to visit 2 (9 months) | To evaluate physiological changes by measuring hormonal levels in blood from patients who do not achieve spontaneous clinical pregnancy after 9 months from the start of supplementation. |
| Evaluate changes in karyotype | From enrollment to visit 2 (9 months) | To evaluate changes in karyotype by measuring in blood from patients who do not achieve spontaneous clinical pregnancy after 9 months from the start of supplementation. |
| Evaluate the presence of anatomy changes by ultrasound test | From enrollment to visit 2 (9 months) | To evaluate anatomic changes by ultrasound test in patients who do not achieve spontaneous clinical pregnancy after 9 months from the start of supplementation. |
| To evaluate changes in the number of antral follicle by ultrasound test | From enrollment to visit 2 (9 months) | To evaluate changes in the number of antral follicle by ultrasound test in patients who do not achieve spontaneous clinical pregnancy after 9 months from the start of supplementation. |
| Evaluate the time until spontaneous clinical pregnancy | From enrollment to visit 2 (9 months) | The variable time (months) until pregnancy will be calculated using the following formula: Time (months)= (Date of pregnancy - Date of treatment intake) / 30.44 |
| Ovosicare Fertility tolerability degree | From enrollment to 6 months (during sumplementation) | To evaluate the degree of tolerability of treatment with Ovosicare® Fertility by the investigator a qualitative variable will be collected considered as poor, bad, good, excellent. |
| Ovosicare Fertility use satisfaction degree | From enrollment to 6 months (during sumplementation) | To evaluate the degree of investigator satisfaction with the use of Ovosicare® Fertility a qualitative variable will be collected considered as very insatisfied, insatisfied, satisfied, very satisfied |
| Ovosicare Fertility Adherence | From enrollment to 6 months (during sumplementation) | Treatment adherence will be evaluated as a qualitative variable referring to the correct intake of treatment following the frequency prescribed by the investigator. The frequency is defined as: always, quite often, sometimes, never |
| Live birth rate | After 9 moths after pregnancy confirmation | To evaluate the live birth rate |
| Evaluate the safety profile of Ovosicare Fertility | From enrollment to 6months (during sumplementation) | The percentage of patients with adverse events (AE) and serious adverse events (SAE) wil be described, as well as the total number of AEs and SAEs recorded up to visit 2. AEs will be coded using the MedDRA dictionary and their characteristics will be described as qualitative variables in terms of severity, intensity, causal relationship, and assessment of the response. |
