Measuring follicle volume could improve IVF timing for poor responders
NCT ID NCT06839274
First seen Jun 27, 2026 ยท Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at 100 women with very low ovarian reserve (fewer than 4 follicles) undergoing IVF. Researchers will measure the volume of each follicle just before the trigger shot that matures the eggs. They want to see if follicle volume is a better predictor of egg maturity than size alone. The goal is to find the best timing for egg retrieval to avoid premature ovulation and improve the chance of getting a usable embryo.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only โ not medical advice or a prediction.
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could help doctors time the egg retrieval trigger more precisely, potentially increasing the chance of getting mature eggs and a healthy embryo in women with low ovarian reserve.
- What could go wrong
- This is a small observational study (100 participants) that only looks for a correlation, not a proven treatment. The findings may not apply to all patients or lead to better pregnancy rates.
