The Higher Response of Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor and Angiotensin-II to Human Chorionic Gonadotropin in Women with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome

the higher response of vascular endothelial growth factor and angiotensin-ii to human chorionic gonadotropin in women with polycystic ovary syndrome

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). materials and methods: in this clinical trial study, 52 patients with pcos and 8 control cases were stimulated with human chorionic gonadotropin (hcg) on the ...

Serum and Peritoneal Fluid Levels of Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor in Women with Endometriosis

Lack of Serum anti-Mullerian hormone responses after recombinant human chorionic gonadotropin stimulation in women with polycystic ovary syndrome.

CONTEXT Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is an anovulatory disorder characterized by excess androgen production and increased LH secretion. Serum anti-Mullerian hormone (AMH) is also elevated in this disorder. Women with PCOS exhibit a positive correlation between AMH and LH levels and recent in vitro data demonstrate that LH can directly stimulate AMH production by granulosa cells from women w...

Human chorionic gonadotropin-induced ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome is associated with up-regulation of vascular endothelial growth factor.

Ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS), a life-threatening complication occurring in stimulated ovarian cycles, arises from treatment with gonadotropin for induction of follicular maturation in infertile women. Clinical characteristics of OHSS include ascites and pleural effusion induced by increased vascular permeability, where vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) was suspected to be th...

Mindfulness and Its Predictors in Women With Polycystic Ovary Syndrome

Background: Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) is the most common endocrine disorder in women of reproductive age which can cause many problems such as hyperandrogenic symptoms and fertility problems. Objective: The present study aimed to determine the relationship of mindfulness with hyperandrogenic symptoms and demographic and fertility factors in women with PCOS. Methods: This descriptive co...
