Summary

The basis for obesity's impact on reproduction is not well characterised and there is a controversy whether the key organ influenced by it are the ovaries or the uterus.

Insulin sensitizers ameliorate insulin resistance in obese patients. This study seeks to determine if Metformin helps to increase fecundability by affecting the uterus in women undergoing ART. As a surrogate marker- flows in the uterus will be tested during the treatment.
