NCT ID NCT07449260
First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study looked at whether the level of thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) in the blood affects the success of a fertility treatment called ICSI. Researchers measured TSH in 180 women on day 2-3 of their menstrual cycle and then tracked egg retrieval, fertilization, and pregnancy rates. The goal was to see if TSH levels are linked to better or worse outcomes.

- What could go wrong
- This is a completed observational study, not a treatment trial. It only looks for a link, so it cannot prove cause and effect.
