Summary

The purpose of this clinical trial is to see if intrauterine growth hormone infusions can help subjects reach a suitable endometrial thickness in patients who are resistant to routine hormonal therapy for embryo transfer in the In Vitro Fertilization (IVF) cycle.

The primary aim of this study is to assess the effectiveness of injecting Growth hormone directly into the uterus to enhance endometrial thickness. Additionally, we aim to compare the likelihood of pregnancy between patients receiving the Growth hormone infusion and those receiving a placebo.

Conditions

Interventions

DRUG

Growh hormone

In this group, patients will receive growth hormone solution containing 1.99 milligrams of the drug dissolved in 1.5 milliliters of 0.9% saline solution (normal saline), in addition to standard hormonal therapy, starting from cycle day 10. Treatment sessions will be conducted at two-day intervals. In case of non-response to treatment (failure to reach a minimum endometrial thickness of 7 millimeters in the subsequent assessment), the patient will receive a maximum of 4 doses, and if response to treatment is observed, growth hormone infusion will be discontinued. All infusions will be administered intrauterinely via an Intrauterine Insemination (IUI) catheter.

OTHER

Placebo

Similar to the intervention group, from cycle day 10, an equal volume of 0.9% saline solution (normal saline) will be administered in addition to standard hormonal therapy. Treatment sessions will be conducted at two-day intervals. In case of non-response to treatment (failure to reach a minimum endometrial thickness of 7 millimeters in the subsequent assessment), the patient will receive a maximum of 4 doses, and if response to treatment is observed, placebo infusion will be discontinued. All infusions will be administered intrauterinely via an Intrauterine Insemination (IUI) catheter.
