Testosterone pretreatment for diminished ovarian reserve

What was investigated and what was found?

Clinical pregnancy occurred in 15.7% with testosterone gel and 14.9% with placebo. The difference was not significant, and the trial stopped for futility at a planned interim analysis.

Interpreting the findings

Results apply to the enrolled population and tested protocols; they are not a personal success prediction.

How can you prepare for a consultation?

Bring your age, AMH and ultrasound results, previous doses and mature egg counts. In an initial consultation with Prof. Dr. Mehmet Çolakoğlu, these can be considered together when discussing realistic options.
