Scientists launch study to uncover secrets of the first two weeks of pregnancy
NCT ID NCT07358026
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study follows healthy women who are trying to get pregnant, as well as women who are not, to collect samples and learn about the molecular signals between mother and embryo during the first two weeks after fertilization. Researchers will compare cycles that lead to a full-term birth, early pregnancy loss, or no pregnancy. The goal is to better understand early pregnancy, not to test a treatment.
