Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Serum testosterone level after 12 weeks of administration of Myo-Inositol [2 years]

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. Androstenedione and SHBG (Sex Hormone Binding Globulin) plasma levels after 12 weeks of administration of Myo-Inositol [2 years]

  2. Number of mature oocytes [2 years]

  3. Embryo quality [2 years]

    Day 3 embryos will be classified as transferable or cryopreservable/ 'good-quality embryos' (GQE) according to the criteria described by Van Landuyt et al. (2013). Blastocysts will be categorized according to Gardner et al. (1998) and Gardner and Schoolcraft (1999).

  4. Implantation rate (%) [2 years]

  5. Clinical pregnancy rate (%) [2 years]

  6. Live birth rate in fresh cycle [2 years]

  7. Cumulative live birth rate after 1 cycle [2 years]

  8. Ovarian Hyperstimulation Syndrome rate [2 years]

  9. Consumption of gonadotrophins [2 years]

    measurement in IU

  10. Stimulation days [2 years]

    measurement in days
