Comparing gonadotrophin-releasing hormone agonists or gonadotrophin-releasing hormone antagonists in poor responder in IVF

Objective: The use of GnRH antagonist versus GnRH agonist in poor responder for patient undergoing ovarian hyperstimulation and in vitro-fertilization was compared. Materials and Methods: In this study, 23 patients underwent ovarian hyperstimulation with recombinant FSH followed by the use of GnRH antagonist (Cetrorelix) 0.25mg during the late Follicular Phase. These patients were compared to 2...

Induction of the endogenous gonadotrophin surge for oocyte maturation with intra-nasal gonadotrophin-releasing hormone analogue (buserelin): effective minimal dose.

From 1985-1987, a total of 34 couples undergoing superovulation for a single in-vitro fertilization (IVF) cycle with clomiphene citrate and purified follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) or human menopausal gonadotrophin (HMG) were randomly allocated doses of intra-nasal buserelin to induce an endogenous gonadotrophin surge, prior to oocyte collection. The doses ranged from a single 25 microg dose...

Gonadotrophin-releasing hormone analogues: a novel treatment for premenstrual asthma.

Premenstrual exacerbation of asthma, as reflected by a reduction in peak expiratory flow rate (PEFR), has been demonstrated in 40-100% of female asthmatics. Epidemiological data demonstrate that admission to hospital with an exacerbation of asthma occurs more frequently perimenstrually. Therapeutic interventions aimed at modifying this precipitating factor, however, remain limited. We report on...
