Summary

The purpose of this study is compare two commonly-used medication protocols ( low-dose clomiphene citrate and high dose gonadotropin protocols) for the treatment of patients with diminished ovarian reserve (decreased number of eggs remaining in the ovary) undergoing IVF. This research is being done because we do not know if these two medication protocols are equally likely to help a woman become pregnant.
