Use of Pulsatile Intravenous FSH to Mitigate Reprometabolic Syndrome

Hypothesis: The investigators hypothesize that pulsatile FSH intravenous administration to women with obesity will correct the Reprometabolic Syndrome (RMS) luteal deficiency phenotype. Specific Aim: To test the hypothesis that pulsatile IV administration of FSH will rescue the impaired folliculogenesis and relative hypogonadotropic hypogonadism, characteristic of obesity. The investigators will accomplish this by administering a cycle of pulsatile FSH to women with obesity and comparing their hormone output to a cycle using conventional, daily FSH injection at the identical daily dose. The primary outcome will be luteal phase progesterone excretion.
