Protocol summary
Study aim
Comparison of the efficacy of two therapeutic methods of use of dydrogesterone and vaginal progestrein as a luteal cycles support in Assisted Reproductive Technology (ART)
Design
A single-blind clinical trial with parallel groups. 210 patients have randomly divided into intervention and control groups with a table of random numbers and Randomizer software.
Settings and conduct
The population of this study was infertile women aged 20-40 years old who referred to Fatemeh Al-Zahra infertility center in Babol. Patients are randomly divided into two groups with a table of random numbers by computer. The first intervention group receives 400 mg vaginal suppository once a day. The second intervention group receives oral progesterone-duphaston 20 mg twice a day. The medications are prepared quite similar in appearance (color and shape), sealed in opaque envelopes with consecutive numbers. The researcher is aware of numbers
