- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Main Objective: the study aims at determining the potential benefits of vitamin D supplementation in improving clinical pregnancy rate in womenundergoing ART;Secondary Objective: to investigate wether vitamin D supplementation might improve clinical and embryological parameters such as: number of cancelled cycles, number of avaible oocytes, number of good quality embryos, units of FSHadministered per retrieved oocyte, implantation rate of transferred embryos. To investigate the effect of vitamin D supplementation on oocyte and endometrium quality at a molecular level through a comparative analysis between treated and untreated patients based on the analysis af cumulus cells, follicular and endometrial fluids.;Primary end point(s): clinical pregnancy rate per oocyte retrieval after the first embryo transfer.;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 10 weeks after embryo transfer
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Secondary end point(s): delivery rate and obstetric outcome ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 1 year after embryo transfer
