Patients undergoing treatment in the egg donation programme and patients undergoing frozen embryo transfer need to be administered progesterone. It is necessary for implantation and for the posterior progress of the pregnancy. Drugs can be administered either by means of a daily subcutaneous injection or vaginally over a period of at least three months. Given that this is a significant period of time, Instituto Bernabeu believes that it is key that the female patient feels at ease if she is to have a good quality of life.

At the European Society of Human Reproduction and Embryology (ESHRE) congress, Instituto Bernabeu will present work on how genetics affects responses to drugs and how they can be used in order to improve ovarian stimulation in women with poor response. The reproductive medicine clinic has pioneered the use of drugs linked to genetics through IBgen and, on this occasion, has developed research work entitled 'A pharmacogenetic approach to improving low ovarian response with androgen pre-treatment'. It will be presented at the event to be held between 2^nd and 5^th July in Switzerland.

The Director of the Endocrinology and Nutrition Department at Instituto Bernabeu, Dr Pino Navarro, will participate as a speaker in the XXII edition of the Continuous Training Course on Endocrinology and Nutrition for internal resident doctors organised by the Spanish Endocrinology and Nutrition Society.
