HCG: Is it the Best Choice for Ovulation Triggering?
نویسندگان
چکیده
With the increasing use of gonadotropin releasing hormone antagonist protocols, it has become an option to trigger ovulation with gonadotropin releasing hormone agonist which has several advantages over human chorionic gonadotropin triggering; among those an elimination or reduction in ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome, and a reduction in luteal phase discomfort. Thus, this paper questions the automated use of human chorionic gonadotropin for triggering of ovulation in assisted reproductive technologies.

I-27: GnRH Agonist Triggering and Luteal Phase Support
Background GnRH agonist triggering is one of the strategies for ovulation triggering and final maturation of oocytes. So , should be notice for luteal phase support in these cycles. At the first it was began for prevention of severe OHSS but it was associated with luteal phase problem and lower pregnancy rate due to luteolysis effects of GnRH agonists. So, two other alternative strategies have ...

Human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) has been used as a surrogate for the mid-cycle LH surge for several decades. Due to structural and biological similarities with LH, hCG binds to and activates the same receptor - the LH/hCG receptor. However, despite the fact that hCG effectively secures final oocyte maturation and ovulation, its use as a surrogate for LH has got several drawbacks - first and ...
متن کاملI-31: New Approaches for Luteal Phase Support in ART Cycles
Background During a normal menstrual cycle, progesterone prepares the endometrium for pregnancy by stimulating proliferation in response to human chorionic Gnadotropin produced by the corpus luteum. Many questions were raised about the role of follicular fluid aspiration on the granuloma cells at the time of oocyte retrieving during the ART cycles. Authors believes that oocyte retrieval might d...

Aim Outside of Japan, recombinant-human chorionic gonadotropin (r-hCG) is widely used for the induction of final follicular maturation and early luteinization in women undergoing ovulation induction; whereas in Japan, urine-derived hCG (u-hCG) is predominantly used. The primary objective of this study was to demonstrate the non-inferiority of r-hCG to u-hCG for ovulation induction, as assessed ...

Since the pioneering days of in vitro fertilization, hCG has been the gold standard to induce final follicular maturation. We herein reviewed different pharmaceutical options for triggering of final oocyte maturation in ART. The new upcoming agent seems to be GnRHa with its potential advantages over hCG trigger. GnRHa triggering elicits a surge of gonadotropins resembling the natural midcycle s...
