The Use of Clomid and hMG in Human In Vitro Fertilization: Consequences for Egg Quality and Luteal Phase Adequacy

  • Conference paper
Fertilization of the Human Egg In Vitro

Abstract

Achievement of normal pregnancies after intrauterine transfer of in vitro fertilized embryos opened up a promising therapeutic field in cases of severe tubal injury and provided a new means of research into human reproduction (Edwards et al. 1980; Lopata et al. 1980; Trounson et al. 1981).
