About this study

The IVF culture media design and upgrade underwent many ideas during the last 3 decades, we suppose that adding insulin as a hormon and growth factor might improve embryo development in vitro so we decide to design a trial to compare the embryogenesis by sibling Oocytes of the same patient between to arm of the same culture media and yhe same culture condition but with one arm with insulin and the other is traditional one and closely monitor the outcome within the 2 arms abd record the results
