Estrogen levels linked to recovery after IVF procedure
NCT ID NCT06925633
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looked at 98 women undergoing IVF egg retrieval under general anesthesia. Researchers measured their estrogen levels before the procedure and then tracked how well they recovered over the next three days. The goal was to see if higher estrogen levels were linked to better or worse recovery, including pain, nausea, and overall well-being. Since this was an observational study, no treatment was given—it simply gathered information to guide future care.
