Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Experimental: in-vitro maturation of oocytes

Procedure: prematuration culture
The aneuploidy rate and the developmental potential of embryos obtained from PDE3 inhibitor-treated oocytes (a "prolonged" IVM (PMC)) in comparison to "conventional" IVM will be analysed. It is intended to assess the nuclear and cytogenetic constitution of the obtained embryos.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Incidence of aneuploidy rate by fluorescence in situ hybridisation (FISH) technique in 6 to 8 cell embryos from prolonged (PMC) IVM compared to conventional IVM on sibling oocytes. [3 days after egg retrieval]

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. Implantation potential of embryos from conventional IVM performed on Type II COC. Efficiency of both maturation systems in obtaining blastocysts. Endometrium quality in IVM cycles. [7 days after egg retrieval]
