Brief Summary

The number of ovum, mature ovum number, embryos number, embryo quality and fertilization rate were significantly higher in the intervention group than control group (for all items; P<0.05). Overall pregnancy rate was significantly higher in the intervention group (35.2% vs. 12.4%; odds ratio [OR], 3.8; 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.8-8.3). The intervention group had higher rate of getting spontaneous pregnancy than the control group (20.9% vs. 2.2%; odds ratio [OR], 11.5; 95% confidence interval [CI] 2.6-50.9). Chemical pregnancy was significantly higher in the intervention group (64% vs. 27.5%; odds ratio [OR], 4.7; 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.9-11.6).
