Not Applicable
Completed
Conditions
Infertility
Interventions
Diagnostic Test: Salivary and blood progesterone dosage
Registration Number
NCT05987657
Lead Sponsor
Hospices Civils de Lyon
Brief Summary

Nowadays, 1/7 couple consult because of infertility and some of them will need in vitro fertilization +/- intracytoplasmic sperm injection (IVF+/- ICSI). The IVF process includes a 14 days stimulation with FSH +/- LH in an agonist or antagonist protocol. The monitoring consists of regular ultrasound scan and blood sample. During the stimulation protocol many test have been proposed to predict the success of IVF. However, progesterone dosage on triggering day seems to be the only relevant exam. Indeed, when the progesterone blood concentration is low, the pregnancy rate is decreased. The only way to obtain progesterone concentration is a blood sample. The IVF journey is known to be stressful with many injections. Therefore, the salivary dosage appear to be more patient friendly. This kind of dosage has already been studied yet never use in routine because of a lack of repeatability. The laboratory of Lyon has developed a new technique to overcome this issue by using a liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry.

The aim of this work is as a first step to assess the repeatability, reliability and precision of salivary dosage on triggering day for IVF patient compared to blood concentration of progesterone.
