Counts group repeated records of the same source within each side. They do not measure evidence strength or source independence.

Is it true that fertility treatment hormones cause weight gain in women?

No. A prospective cohort of 519 IVF cycles found mean weight change under 1%, far below the 5-7% threshold for clinical significance, and its authors explicitly reject the claim that fertility hormone therapy causes clinically significant weight gain. Other retrieved items concern unrelated hormone or fertility topics and do not support the claim.
