Background: Patients with a transverse vaginal septum generally present at the age of menarche with complain of cyclic pelvic or abdominal pain due to retention of blood above the obstruction. In the absence of menstruation this women did not have typical hematocolpos. Materials and Methods: A rare case of hypothalamic amenorrhea and transverse vaginal septum were reported. A 28- year-old woman...

Recent studies show that most patients with X-linked hyper IgM syndrome have defects in the gene for CD40 ligand. We evaluated 17 unrelated males suspected of having X-linked hyper IgM syndrome. Activated T cells from 13 of the 17 patients failed to bind a soluble CD40 construct. In these patients, the sequence of CD40 ligand demonstrated mutations. By contrast, T cells from the remaining four ...

background: poor ovarian response to controlled ovarian stimulation is one of the most important interest points in assisted reproduction. mild ovarian stimulation seems to be preferable to high dose of fsh regimens in women with a history of poor ovarian response in previous protocol. clomiphene citrate and letrozole alone or in combination with fsh have been used in mild ovarian stimulation p...

Type 2 receptors for vascular endothelial growth factor are believed to be involved in the pathophysiology of ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS). The objective of this study was to examine the preventive effects of cabergoline on OHSS and its complications. The study is a non randomized clinical trial conducted in 2006-2008 on 75 patients, which were at risk of OHSS and underwent assisted...

Ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS) is still a severe complication due to controlled ovarian stimulation for artificial reproductive technology. Even though multiple techniques to avoid OHSS have been discussed in the last decades, up to now no clear concepts for primary and secondary prevention exist. This review gives an overview over proposed strategies to avoid OHSS. In a retrospective...

background: controlled ovarian hyper stimulation coh/iui represents a therapy applicable to a wide variety of infertility diagnosis with no significant mechanical distortion of pelvic viscera. identified variables influenced in intra uterine insemination include: age, cause of infertility, sperm number, motility and normal percentage, use of gonadotropine and number of attempts at iui. the role...

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the impact of ovarian stimulation on the outcome of intrauterine insemination (IUI). DESIGN Retrospective analysis. SETTING A single university-based centre. POPULATION A total of 5109 couples with 8893 cycles. METHODS The outcome of IUI with different protocols for ovarian stimulation was examined. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES The live birth rate (LBR), twin pregnancy ...
