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...

Background: The Hamilton Depression Rating Scale (HAMD-17), Beck Inventory (BDI), and Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ9) are commonly-used scales to classify Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) response remission. In the absence of a standard scale, it is critical know whether classifications vary across scales. Methods: This was retrospective chart review 100 patients with treatment-resis...

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: Ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome is the most serious complication of ovarian stimulation. This novel study aimed to describe an outpatient treatment protocol for ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS) that results in rapid normalization of symptoms with minimal side effects. Materials and Methods: A prospective study was undertaken at Infertility department of Shariati Hospital a...

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; ...
