Elonva
"20 obese women will be the study group and 20 normal weighing women will be the control group. Both groups will receive 150 mcg of Elonva for controlled ovarian hyperstimulation (COH). Gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) antagonist will be used to prevent premature luteinizing hormone (LH) surge. Additional daily doses of 200 IU of recombinant follicle stimulating hormone (rFSH) will be used if necessary. Human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) will be used for oocyte maturation. 2 mature follicles will be aspirated separately in each patient. Cumulus cell (CC) samples will be collected and stored on -80 oC for subsequent analysis. Clinical and molecular parameters of IVF success will be assessed and compared between the groups.~The exclusion criteria will be: polycystic ovary syndrome, severely abnormal sperm parameters, and age \> 38 years."
