Secondary outcomes
GROUP B
Fourteen out of 468 intervention cycles were canceled, while 14 cycles had incomplete data recordings; thus, a total of 440 cycles were included in the complete data analysis. Cycle characteristics.P-values were calculated using Fisher’s exact test. Values are showed as n (%) or median (interquartile range). When the medians are equal, values are showed as mean ± SD.Moreover, Group A showed a significantly higher rate of obtaining only one mature follicle compared to Group B (80.9% versus 64.5%, P-value <0.01), whereas there was no significant difference in the ovulation rate with one follicle (72.7% versus 62.7%, P-value >0.05). The duration of FSH treatment (4.47 ± 0.15 versus 4.51 ± 0.14, P-value >0.05) and days required for follicles to mature (13.3 ± 0.16 versus 13.12 ± 0.14, P-value >0.05) or ovulate (15.51 ± 0.16 versus 15.27 ± 0.15, P-value >0.05) were similar between both groups. The hormone concentration on HCG injection day significantly differed between the two groups. The endometrial thickness on ovulation day was significantly less in Group A (P-value<0.05), whereas there was no substantial difference on the day of HCG administration.
