IVF egg hunt: does flushing follicles boost harvest?
NCT ID NCT07335016
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests whether rinsing (flushing) ovarian follicles during egg retrieval can increase the number of mature eggs collected for IVF. In 75 women undergoing IVF, one ovary will be flushed and the other will not, and the egg yields will be compared. The goal is to see if this simple technique improves IVF outcomes.
