چکیده

This case report describes the first established pregnancy after the use of gonadotrophin-releasing hormone (GnRH) antagonist, ganirelix (Org 37462; Organon), to prevent a premature luteinizing hormone surge during ovarian hyperstimulation with recombinant human follicle stimulating hormone (rhFSH). The pregnancy progressed normally and ended with the birth of a healthy boy and a girl after an elective Caesarean section at gestational age of 37 weeks. This case illustrates, for the first time, the use of a GnRH antagonist in combination with a pure FSH preparation for ovarian stimulation.

High dose gonadotrophin-releasing hormone antagonist (ganirelix) may prevent ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome caused by ovarian stimulation for in-vitro fertilization.

This case report describes the first attempt to treat imminent ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS) by using a gonadotrophin-releasing hormone (GnRH) antagonist. A 33 year old, normo-ovulatory woman undergoing in-vitro fertilization received daily subcutaneous injections of 150 IU of recombinant follicle-stimulating hormone (recFSH) from cycle day 2, together with GnRH antagonist (ganirelix...

Luteal Supplementation with Estradiol and Progesterone in Patients Stimulated with GnRH Antagonist/rFSH for IVF

The use of progesterone for luteal support in stimulated cycles for in-vitro fertilization is well established. However, the benefits of the addition of estradiol are still controversial. The aim of this study was to compare ongoing pregnancy rates in patients stimulated with recombinant follicle stimulating hormone and gonadotrophin releasing hormone antagonist for in vitro fertilization, who ...

High doses of gonadotrophin-releasing hormone antagonist in in-vitro fertilization cycles do not adversely affect the outcome of subsequent freeze-thaw cycles.

The clinical application of gonadotrophin-releasing hormone (GnRH) antagonists instead of GnRH agonists, to prevent spontaneous premature luteinizing hormone surge during ovarian stimulation for assisted reproduction treatment has been advocated. A recent, double-blind, dose-finding study, including six dosages of the GnRH antagonist ganirelix, in women undergoing ovarian stimulation with recom...

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...

Roles of follicle stimulating hormone and luteinizing hormone in controlled ovarian hyperstimulation.

With the advent of recombinant follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) and luteinizing hormone (LH), free from contamination with each other (Loumaye et al., 1995), it is possible to dissect the individual contributions of FSH and LH to the regulation of ovarian function and to define optimal gonadotrophin usage in controlled ovarian hyperstimulation (COH) (Hillier, 1994). Basic and clinical researc...
