Does Adding Dexamethasone to Clomiphene Citrate Improve Ovulation in PCOS Patients? A Triple - Blind Randomized Clinical Trial Study

Antioxidant cosupplementation therapy with vitamin C, vitamin E, and coenzyme Q10 in patients with oligoasthenozoospermia.

OBJECTIVE Overproduction of reactive oxygen species results in oxidative stress, a deleterious process that damages cell structure as well as lipids, proteins, and DNA. Oxidative stress plays a major role in various human diseases, such as oligoasthenozoospermia syndrome. MATERIALS AND METHODS We evaluated the effectiveness of antioxidant co-supplementation therapy using vitamin C, vitamin E,...

Comparison between Unilateral and Bilateral Ovarian Drilling in Clomiphene Citrate Resistance Polycystic Ovary Syndrome Patients: A Randomized Clinical Trial of Efficacy
