Fertility drugs and gut health: a new study investigates the link
NCT ID NCT07533968
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at whether fertility treatments change irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) symptoms in women. Researchers will follow 120 women—60 with PCOS starting IVF and 60 freezing eggs for social reasons. Participants fill out questionnaires about gut symptoms, anxiety, and depression before and after hormone treatment. The goal is to understand how hormonal stimulation affects IBS, not to treat or cure any condition.
