Mathematical Model for the Human Menstrual Cycle, Endocrinological Diseases and Fertility Treatment-PAEON (PAEON)

September 6, 2016 updated by: University of Zurich

Model Driven Computation for Infertility Related Endocrinological Diseases - PAEON

Development of a bio-mathematical model of the human female cycle

Study Overview

Status

Completed

Intervention / Treatment

Detailed Description

From hormonal measurements throughout 1-2 menstrual cycles in women with and without endocrinological pathology a mathematical model of the human menstrual cycle will be generated. The model will serve to predict development of the cycle including ovulation as well as to better understand the pathophysiology of endocrinological disorder. In a second step current treatment protocols for fertility treatment will be integrated into the model in order to optimize treatment outcome.
