The epileptic seizure would be a temporary occurrence of signs and/or symptoms attributed to abnormal and/or synchronic excessive neuronal activity in specific areas of the central nervous system [1]. The excitability of an individual nerve cell in the brain depends on a number of f...

Controlled ovarian hyperstimulation is a key step for successful outcomes of assisted reproductive technique cycle outcomes. Many medications are available, which are commonly useed solely or in combination to achieve multiple follicular development. Pharmacokinetic, pharmacodynamic, and clinical information of ovulation induction drugs deserve to be elucidated for every individual patient befo...

BACKGROUND To assess the impact of luteal phase support on the expression of estrogen receptor (ER) alpha and progesterone receptors B (PR-B) on the endometrium of oocyte donors undergoing controlled ovarian hyperstimulation (COH). METHODS A prospective, randomized study was conducted in women undergoing controlled ovarian hyperstimulation for oocyte donation. Participants were randomized to ...

background: intrauterine insemination (iui) is the first therapeutic step in assisted reproductive techniques and many factors, including male and female infertility and technique-dependent factors, have been reported to influence pregnancy rates after iui. methods: we carried out this retrospective study on 1201 couples undergoing 3012 intrauterine insemination cycles during 2002 to 2009. preg...

failure to respond adequately to standard protocols and to recruit adequate follicles is called ‘poor response’. this results in decreased oocyte production, cycle cancellation and, overall, is associated with a significantly diminished probability of pregnancy. it has been shown that ovarian reserve tests, such as basal fsh, antimullarian hormone (amh), inhibin b, basal estradiol, antral folli...

abstract the gnrh analogue (agonist and antagonist gnrh) changed ovarian stimulation. on the one hand, it improved chances of pregnancy to obtain more oocytes and better embryos. this leads to an ovarian hyper-response, which can be complicated by the ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (ohss). on the other hand, the gnrh analogue can prevent the incidence of ohss: gnrh antagonist protocols, gnrh...

We present a case of a 24 year old woman who became pregnant (twins) after human menopausal gonadotrophin (HMG)-induced ovarian stimulation, in-vitro fertilization (IVF) and subsequent embryo transfer. She developed a right internal jugular vein thrombosis as a complication of severe ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS) 28 days after embryo transfer. The thrombosis developed in spite of ant...

In the controlled ovarian hyperstimulation (COH) cycle of the in vitro fertilizationembryo transfer (IVF-ET) therapy, the clinicians observe the patients’ responses to gonadotropin dosages through closely monitoring their physiological states, to balance the trade-off between pregnancy rate and ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS) risk. In this paper, we model the clinical practice in the C...

Endometriosis is an enigmatic disease affecting 10-15% of reproductive aged women and is encountered in 25-35% of women suffering from infertility. IVF is an effective tool to overcome endometriosis-associated infertility when expectant management or surgery fails. Direct IVF should be envisioned if the female age is greater than 38 year and infertility is long lasting. Likewise, semen characte...
