INTRODUCTION Polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) is the main cause of anovulatory infertility. Various combination of drugs have been tried to induce ovulation in PCOS patients with varied result. So, this study was planned to compare the effect of bromocriptine combined with Clomiphene Citrate and Clomiphene Citrate alone, in patients of polycystic ovarian syndrome with normal prolactin level. ...

to a receptive endometrium suitable for implantation. One of the major drugs used for infertility treatment is clomiphene citrate (a non steroidal synthetic compound with both estrogenic and anti-estrogenic activity). Clomiphene citrate stimulates ovulation by competitively inhibiting the estrogen (E) binding to the hypothalamic estrogen receptors (ER), thereby releasing the hypothalamus from t...

objective: to assess follicular development and endometrial growth using transvaginal sonography in spontaneous and clomiphene citrate induced (cc) cycles. materials and methods: one hundred consecutive couples with unexplained infertility were recruited for this cross sectional study from 2003 to 2005. patients were monitored for the first cycle with no medication while the laboratory routine ...

Clomiphene citrate (a nonsteroidal oestrogen antagonist) has been used for ovarian stimulation since its discovery in the late 1950s and continues to have an important role in fertility treatment. Currently, follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) is used in mild ovarian stimulation either by itself or in combination with clomiphene citrate. Required doses of FSH vary considerably, depending on whet...

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 ...

objective: the aim of this study was to assess the accuracy of ovarian reserve tests, mainly basal and clomiphene stimulated follicle stimulating hormone (fsh) concentrations. materials and methods : a prospective cohort study was conductedon 120 infertile patients referring to mirza koochak khan hospital for ivffrom 2004 to 2006. all the patients underwent clomiphene citrate challenge test (cc...

OBJECTIVE To report the first ever case of primary short-lasting unilateral neuralgiform headache attacks (SUNCT) syndrome completely responsive to clomiphene citrate. METHODS Case report. RESULTS SUNCT is a primary headache disorder marked by frequent attacks of one-sided headache with cranial autonomic associated symptoms. When SUNCT is deemed medicinally treatment refractory, it can caus...

OBJECTIVE This study aimed to compare two methods of treatment of infertility with gonadotropin with laparoscopic ovarian electrocauterization in patients with clomiphene citrate-resistant polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). METHODS A number of 104 nulipara patients with polycystic ovary syndrome, who were resistant to clomiphene citrate were randomly assigned to two groups. One group received ...

BACKGROUND The aim of the present randomised controlled non-inferiority trial is to test whether in women with compromised ovarian reserve requiring in vitro fertilisation, a protocol of ovarian stimulation using exclusively clomiphene citrate performs similarly to a regimen with high doses of gonadotropins. METHODS Women with day 3 serum FSH > 12 IU/ml on at least two occasions or previous p...

Background: Long-term safety of assisted reproductive techniques (ART) is of interest as their use is increasing. Cancer risk is known to be affected by parity. This study examined the risk of cancer after fertility treatment, stratified by women's parity.Methods: Data were obtained from all women (n = 1,353,724) born in Norway between 1960 and 1996. Drug exposure data (2004-2014) were obtained...
