Abstract:
Background: Ovarian stimulation is an important process in IVF. Objectives:To assess the efficacy of low dose GnRH agonist depot in combination with recombinant FSH for ovarian stimulation in IVF and evaluate the clinical pregnancy rate of this protocol. Subject and method: A prospective study recruited 60 patients undergoing IVF. The patients was injected intramuscularly with a single dose of diphereline of 1.25 mg on cycle day 21-23. Then recombinant FSH was given subcutaneously on day 3. hCG was injected intramuscularly when at least one follicle reached 18 mm in diameter. Oocytes retrieval in 36 hours and embryo 2 transfer on day after oocytes retrieval. Results: Duration of stimulation was 10.8 \xb1 0.9, average number of oocytes was 3.3 \xb1 4.7, average number of embryos was 6.5 \xb1 4.1, clinical pregnancy rate was 41.7%. Ovarian hyperstimulation rate was 5%, frozen embryo rate was 40 %. Conclusions: The use of low dose GnRH agonist depot in combination with recombinant ISH is effective for ovarian stimulation in IVF.
