Objective: To observe the effect of vitamin C and E administration on endometrial thickness and vascularity in clomiphene citrate stimulated endometrium Method: Research design was randomized clinical trial. Both groups were stimulated with clomiphene citrate. Treatment group was given vitamin C and E, while control group was given placebo. Transvaginal ultrasound examination is used to assess ...

The aim of the present study was to compare the reproductive outcomes of letrozole and laparoscopic ovarian drilling (LOD) in women with clomiphene citrate (CC)-resistant polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). A total of 141 women with CC-resistant PCOS were enrolled and randomly allocated into groups A and B. Group A (n=71) received 2.5 mg letrozole from days 5 to 10 of menses for up to six cycles,...

Objective: To evaluate the effect of N-acetyl-cysteine (NAC), a mucolytic drug with insulin sensitizing properties, as an adjuvant therapy in subjects with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) resistant to clomiphene citrate (CC). Design: Placebo-controlled, double-blind randomized trial. Setting: University-based hospital and private infertility practice. Patient(s): One hundred fifty women diagno...

Clomiphene citrate is capable of interacting with estrogen-receptor-containing tissues, including the hypothalamus, pituitary, ovary, endometrium, vagina, and cervix. It may compete with estrogen for estrogen-receptor-binding sites and may delay replenishment of intracellular estrogen receptors. Clomiphene citrate initiates a series of endocrine events culminating in a preovulatory gonadotropin...

background: clomiphene citrate (cc) an agonist and antagonist of estrogen, is the first line treatment in ovarian stimulation. anti-estrogenic effect of cc in endometrial thickness and cervical mucus has negative effect on pregnancy rate. letrozole is an aromatase inhibitor has been seen that has acceptable pregnancy rate compared to cc. objective: the aim of this study was to compare the effic...

Spermatogenesis is a fascinating biological process aiming to generate haploid spermatozoa from diploid spermatogonia through a specific hormonal network between gonadotropins and steroids. Increasing evidence suggests that the primary female sex hormone estrogen plays an active role in this process. This research points out on the role of estrogen during lizard spermatogenesis by using three e...
