Efficacy of Corifollitropin Alfa in Obese Women in Terms of Clinical and Molecular Parameters of IVF Success

Summary

The aim of the present study is to determine, whether clinical efficacy of 150 mcg of Corifollitropin alfa is the same in normal weighing and obese women. Furthermore, investigators want to determine whether oocytes retrieved from normal weighing and obese women, after COH using 150 mcg of Corifollitropin alfa, are of same quality on the molecular level.
