MATERIAL AND METHOD: Case report. RESULT: We experienced 5 Pregnancies after unsuccessful IVF-ET attempt with additional non IVF-ET therapy or without therapy. CONCLUSIONS: The follicular puncture and ovarian enlargement may result in restoration of pituitary-ovarian axis and peritoneal environment in infertility patients.
