Ovarian Hyperstimulation Syndrome

چکیده
ART is proven of great help to all the infertile couples anxious to get pregnant , but is not free of side effects and complications. OHSS one of the most important complication especially in cases of PCOS. Ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS) is a potentially fatal complication of ovarian stimulation. The incidence has been estimated at 3 to 6% for moderate and 0.1 to 2% for severe OHSS. The trigger for initiation of OHSS appears to be human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG). In conception cycles symptoms may persist longer due to endogenous hCG stimulus .Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), a member of the transforming growth factor superfamily, has emerged as one of the factors most likely involved in the pathophysiology of OHSS. There are various risk factors which increases the risk of developing OHSS during the stimulation like PCOS, low body weight, previous history of OHSS, etc. Primary and secondary preventive measures are been tried to reduce the risk of developing OHSS. GnRHa trigger in patients at risk revealed that incidence OHSS was reduced or totally eliminated. Use of antagonist cycle with an agonist trigger and elective vitrification of all embryos allows us to aim for an 'OHSS Free' clinic today.

I-31: Antihistamine & Ovarian Hyperstimulation syndrome
Background: Ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS) is a rare iatrogenic complication of ovulation stimulation. The pathogenesis of OHSS is uncertain. The crucial event appears to be an increase in capillary permeability by vasoactive mediators such as cytokine and histamine. The aim of this study is to evaluate the role of loratadine (antihistamine) in preventing ovarian hyperstimulation synd...

Background Coasting is the most common method used in the prevention of ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS) acting through vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) reduction. However, the pregnancy rate is reported to fall with coasting when it takes more than three days. Recently lowdose cabergoline, a selective D2 dopamine receptor agonist has been proven to selectively reduce vascular ...

Ovarian Hyperstimulation Syndrome (OHSS) is a rare complication of super ovulation and in vitro fertilization (IVF). Although our understanding of its pathophysiology is incomplete, induction of development of multiple follicles, perturbation of the renin angiotensin system and exposure to luteinizing hormone (LH) or human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) are essential contributing factors to its d...
