Background The conventional ovarian stimulation protocol aims to provide the maximum number of oocytes for fertilization which is lead to several embryos for selecting to transfer. There are some complications in this case like; OHSS, Multiple gestation, Time consuming, Patients discomfort, High costs, Emotional distress and Reduced implantation rate due to the embryo- endometrial asynchrony. R...

the aim of this study was to evaluate the outcomes of adding low-dose hcg (human chorionic gonadotropin), as an lh active supplement, to a gnrh antagonist protocol in patients undergoing assisted reproduction techniques. in this parallel-group randomized clinical trial, 137 infertile female outpatients aged 20 - 39 years were randomized into two groups: hcg group and non-hcg group. all patients...

background: ovulation induction and art may be a newly recognized cause of vascular thrombosis in unusual sites in otherwise healthy women. objective: to report a case of thrombosis in right carotid artery 2.5 months after ovarian stimulation for ivf-et. case report: a non pregnant 39-year-old woman without coagulation disorder and ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (ohss). the patient underwent...

Background Fertility preservation for female cancer patients prior to cancer therapy has emerged as an essential component of comprehensive patient care. In the US, approximately 6% of women diagnosed with invasive cancer between 2007 and 2011 that were under 45 years old. The incidence of cancers in reproductive age women signifies a need for fertility preservation options and this need is inc...

Background This research investigated the response of vascular active factors, vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and angiotensin-II (AT-II) to ovarian stimulation during 24 hours in patients with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). MaterialsAndMethods In this clinical trial study, 52 patients with PCOS and 8 control cases were stimulated with human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG) on the 4th ...

minimal stimulation in vitro fertilization (mini-ivf) consists of a gentle controlled ovarian stimulation that aims to produce a maximum of five to six oocytes. there is a misbelief that mini-ivf severely compromises pregnancy and live birth rates. an appraisal of the literature pertaining to studies on mini-ivf protocols was performed. the advantages of minimal stimulation protocols are report...

Background O-30: The Correlation between Myometrial Thickness and In Vitro Fertilization/ Intracyto- Plasmic Sperm Injection (IVF/ ICSI) Outcomes MaterialsAndMethods In this prospective cohort study, 453 infertile women undergoing IVF-ET/ICSI cycles without any obvious pathology of uterine were enrolled. Trans-vaginal ultrasounds were conducted on days 2-4 of the cycle (menstrual phase) precedi...

 ABSTRACT Background: In order to evaluate the role ofketoconazole in the prevention of ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS) in women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) undergoing ovarian stimulation with gonadotropins, a prospective, randomized, double-blind, placebo controlled study was done on one-hundred and nine PCOS women that had been refeiTed to be treated by gonadotropi...

BACKGROUND Milder ovarian stimulation protocols for in vitro fertilization (IVF) are being developed to minimize adverse effects. Mild stimulation regimens result in a decreased number of oocytes at retrieval. After conventional ovarian stimulation for IVF, a low number of oocytes are believed to represent poor ovarian reserve resulting in reduced success rates. Recent studies suggest that a si...
