چکیده

The present study examined whether the rates of oocyte maturation, fertilization and development, as well as pregnancy rate could be improved by human chorionic gonadotrophin (HCG) priming 36 h before immature oocyte retrieval in patients with polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS). Immature oocyte retrieval was performed on day 10-14 of the cycles and patients were randomly allocated either to be primed with 10 000 IU of HCG before the retrieval, or not primed. Immature oocytes were cultured for 24-48 h in TC-199 medium with 20% (v/v) inactivated fetal bovine serum (FBS) supplemented with 75 mIU/ml follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) and luteinizing hormone (LH). Intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) was performed in all mature oocytes and the resulting embryos were transferred on day 2 or 3 after ICSI. A total of 17 patients underwent 24 completed treatment cycles. Thirteen cycles were primed with HCG and 11 other cycles were not primed. The mean number of oocytes retrieved was comparable in the two groups (7.8 +/- 3.9 versus 7.4 +/- 5.2). The percentage of oocytes achieving maturation at 48 h was significantly higher (P < 0.05) in the HCG-primed group (84.3%, 86/102) than in the non-HCG-primed group (69.1%, 56/81). Oocyte maturation was hastened in the HCG-primed group. Following 24 h of culture, 78.2 +/- 7.1% of oocytes were matured in the HCG-primed group compared with 4.9 +/- 2.5% of oocytes in the non-HCG-primed group (P < 0.001). There were no significant differences in the rates of oocyte fertilization and cleavage in these two groups. There were five clinical pregnancies (38.5%) in the HCG-primed group, and three pregnancies (27.3%) in the non-HCG-primed group.

Effect of hCG priming on embryonic development of immature oocytes collected from unstimulated women with polycystic ovarian syndrome

BACKGROUND The effect of hCG priming on oocyte maturation and subsequently outcome in IVM cycles has remained a debated issue. A randomized controlled study was performed to investigate whether or not hCG priming prior to oocyte aspiration can improve the developmental competence of immature oocytes from unstimulated ovaries in women with polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS). METHODS Eighty two...

A 38 h interval between hCG priming and oocyte retrieval increases in vivo and in vitro oocyte maturation rate in programmed IVM cycles†

BACKGROUND Our aim was to evaluate whether extending the interval between human chorionic gonadotrophin (hCG) priming and immature oocyte retrieval increases the oocyte maturation rate following in vitro maturation (IVM). METHODS This study was performed retrospectively. IVM was performed on 113 polycystic ovary syndrome patients (n = 120 cycles). Oocyte collection was performed either 35 h (...

Effect of gonadotrophin priming on in-vitro maturation of oocytes collected from women at risk of OHSS.

This study examined the effects of human menopausal gonadotrophin (HMG) or human chorionic gonadotrophin (HCG) priming on cumulus-oocyte complex (COC) morphology, oocyte maturation and embryo development in patients undergoing in-vitro maturation (IVM) cycles. The patients were primed with nothing (group 1), low-dose HMG (group 2) or 10,000 IU HCG (group 3) before oocyte retrieval. COC with dis...

Blastocyst development and pregnancies after IVF of mature oocytes retrieved from unstimulated patients with PCOS after in-vivo HCG priming.

A major side-effect of controlled ovarian stimulation (COS) in patients with polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) is the risk of ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS). In-vitro maturation (IVM) of immature oocytes represents a potential alternative for the fertility treatment of these patients. Two patients at high risk of OHSS were primed with 10,000 IU HCG 36 h before oocyte retrieval. After...

Prevalence of Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome(PCOS) in Iran is more than 6%. Therefore we encounter with many PCOS patients. In Vitro Maturation (IVM) of oocytes as an attractive method in ART is considered. Studies show that changes in culture conditions should be administered to make IVM protocol more successful .For this purpose in this study we have set up the beneficial cultures for IVM proced...
