Another Study of Interest

Are you are between the ages of 18-40 years old, have had ONE or TWO pregnancy losses in the past, and want to become pregnant again? A study by the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) with the University of Utah, the University at Buffalo, The Commonwealth Medical College (Scranton, PA), and Haifa University is seeking participants.

Available information shows that low-dose aspirin (LDA) may improve pregnancy outcomes. LDA appears to be safe and has few side effects. The Effects of Aspirin in Gestation and Reproduction(EAGeR) trial is studying the effects of LDA taken before pregnancy and continuing through week 36 of pregnancy.

Peak Day Study Update

Greetings to our Peak Day participants. We currently have enrolled 16 participants from various locations across the Salt Lake Valley (4 from Draper, 4 from Riverton, 3 from Herriman, 2 from Lehi, 2 from Salt Lake City, 2 from South Jordan, 2 from Taylorsville, 1 from North Salt Lake, 1 from Sandy and 1 from West Valley City). The average age of our participants is 27 years old.

While we don't have sufficient data yet to present any statistical results, this tracking method does seem to help women identify their PEAK DAY. Four our of our 16 participants have become pregnant after joining the study and beginning to monitor their sign of fertility.

We hope to enroll a total of 100 women for the Peak Day Study. If you have any friends or acquaintances who may be interested in participating, please pass along our number (801-587-3316) or our email address (peakday@utah.edu).

Also, if you have any questions or problems with this method of charting, submitting your charts via mail or online, or with the study in general, please don't hesitate to contact us.

Thank you all for your continued participation.
