Roles of follicle stimulating hormone and luteinizing hormone in controlled ovarian hyperstimulation.
With the advent of recombinant follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) and luteinizing hormone (LH), free from contamination with each other (Loumaye et al., 1995), it is possible to dissect the individual contributions of FSH and LH to the regulation of ovarian function and to define optimal gonadotrophin usage in controlled ovarian hyperstimulation (COH) (Hillier, 1994). Basic and clinical researc...
متن کاملContinuous follicle-stimulating hormone exposure from pituitary adenoma causes periodic follicle recruitment and atresia, which mimics ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome
CONTEXT Follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH)-secreting pituitary adenoma is usually a nonfunctioning tumor, but in rare cases it may develop into ovarian hyperstimulation. Several reports have revealed that serum FSH levels are normal to slightly high in patients with combined FSH-secreting pituitary adenoma with ovarian hyperstimulation. This finding is different from iatrogenic ovarian hypersti...
متن کاملRecombinant follicle-stimulating hormone in the treatment of patients with history of severe ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome.
OBJECTIVE To compare the low-dose recombinant FSH and hMG protocols in treatment of patients with history of severe ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS). DESIGN A prospective study on 22 patients with history of severe OHSS. Group A (n = 14) was treated with low-dose recombinant FSH 40 cycles and group B (n = 8) was treated with low-dose hMG in 26 cycles. SETTING The Egyptian IVF-ET Cen...
متن کاملEctopic expression of follicle-stimulating hormone receptors in thyroid tumors
INTRODUCTION In normal conditions follicle-stimulating hormone receptors (FSHR) are expressed in the ovary and the testis. They can also be expressed in gonadal tumors. However, recently we have found FSHR immunostaining in pituitary adenomas, adrenal tumors and neuroendocrine tumors (carcinoids). The aim of this study was to determine whether the same occurs in thyroid tumors. MATERIAL AND M...
متن کاملInvestigating the association between polymorphism of follicle-stimulating hormone receptor gene and ovarian response in controlled ovarian hyperstimulation
AIM The aim of the study was to investigate the association between follicle-stimulating hormone receptor (FSHR) gene polymorphism at Position 680 and the outcomes of controlled ovarian hyperstimulation for in vitro fertilization and embryo transfer (IVF-ET) in infertile women. MATERIALS AND METHODS One hundred and eight patients under 35 years of age who underwent IVF-ET procedures were incl...
