background: general concern is that the pregnancy rate is higher with gnrh-agonist as a protocol of pituitary suppression. gnrh-antagonist protocol provides a shorter period of administration and an easy flexible protocol. objective: in this study, the outcomes of gnrh agonist and antagonist in icsi cycles are compared in normo responder patients. materials and methods: in this randomized clini...

the objective of this study was to examine the correlation between both midfollicular fsh/lh ratio and number(s) of follicles with ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (ohss) in patients with polycystic ovarian syndrome (pcos). this was carried out in ivf unit at mirza kouchak khan hospital. to induce ovulation, pcos patients were stimulated with gonadotropines. fifty four pcos patients with norma...

Background: General concern is that the pregnancy rate is higher with GnRH-agonist as a protocol of pituitary suppression. GnRH-antagonist protocol provides a shorter period of administration and an easy flexible protocol. In this study, the outcomes of GnRH agonist and antagonist in ICSI cycles are compared in normo responder patients. Materials and Methods: In this randomized clinical trial, ...

background: gnrh agonist administration in the luteal phase has been suggested to beneficially affect the outcome of intracytoplasmic sperm injection (icsi) and embryo transfer (et) cycles. this blind randomized controlled study evaluates the effect of gnrh (gonadotropine releasing hormone) agonist administration on icsi outcome in gnrh antagonist ovarian stimulation protocol in women with 2 or...

Recent advances in the technology of vitrification of human oocytes and embryos have increased the opportunities for fertility preservation in cancer patients. Ovarian stimulation in this group of patients is associated with some unique challenges. A controversy in this field rotated around the hypothesis that the transient elevations of estrogen during an IVF cycle may stimulate tumor growth; ...

Background Our objective was to evaluate the effectiveness of clomiphene citrate (CC) vs. letrozole (L) plus human menopausal gonadotropin (hMG) in gonadotropin releasing hormone (GnRH) antagonist protocol in poor prognosis women with previous failed ovarian stimulation undergoing intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI). MaterialsAndMethods This retrospective cohort study included cycles with C...

background: centre of pressure displacement is an indicator of postural control. children with cerebral palsy have poor postural control. one common intervention to enhance their balance is vestibular stimulation. the aim of this research was to investigate the effect of vestibular stimulation on cop parameters in children with cerebral palsy (3-10 years old). methods: this study was a randomiz...

AIM To determine whether minimal stimulation with clomiphene and gonadotropin provides outcomes and direct costs comparable with those of a conventional GnRHa-gonadotropin stimulation protocol for infertile patients undergoing in vitro fertilization. METHODS A non-randomized clinical trial was conducted from 1 July 1996 to 31 March 2003 at the Infertility and Assisted Reproductive Unit, Ramat...
