background: intrauterine insemination (iui) is a primary, simple and effective method of infertility treatment. the aim of this study was to determine the success rate of iui and some related male and female factors. materials and methods: this quasi - experimental study was done on 500 infertile couples from 2006 to 2008. either clomiphene or human menopausal gonadotropin (hmg) alone or clomip...

Purified human menopausal gonadotropin (HMG) is a natural product extracted from the urine of postmenopausal women that contains pituitary follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH), luteinizing hormone (LH), and a small amount of human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG). Here we retrospectively conducted a clinical pharmaceutical study on a cohort of normogonadotropic infertile patients addressed to long Gn...

Background: To achieve multiple oocytes for in vitro fertilization, ovulation induction is induced by gonadotropins however, it has several effects on oocytes and embryo quality and endometrium receptivity. The aim of this study was to assess ultrastructural changes of corpus luteum after ovarian induction using human menopausal gonadotropin (HMG) and human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG) during l...

Gonadotropin induces masculinization and spermatogenesis in men with congenital hypogonadotropic hypogonadism (CHH). However, large cohort studies for the efficacy and reliable predictors of this therapy need to be conducted. The aim of this study was to investigate the efficacy of gonadotropin treatment in a large cohort of male CHH patients and analyze putative predictors for successful sperm...

placental site trophoblastic tumor (pstt) is the rare variant of gestational trophoblastic diseases (gtd), which differs histologically and immunologically from gtd. diagnosis of pstt is often difficult and delayed. in most cases, diagnosis is not possible until the surgery is performed. the most therapeutic choice is hysterectomy and it is usually successful. here we report two cases of pstt.

background: human menopausal gonadotropin (hmg) has contributed many improvements to human assisted reproduction. however, effects of hmg on oocyte development and clinical results remain controversial. objective: this study was conducted to investigate the effects of hmg on the zona pellucida of oocytes, as well as clinical results in superovulation treatment. materials and methods: this retro...

The outcome of ovulation induction in anovulatory polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) may depend, in part, on the pharmacologic compounds used, but also on individual patient characteristics, such as age, body mass index (BMI), hyperandrogenism, luteinizing hormone (LH), hyper-secretion, anti mullerian hormone (AMH) levels and possibly antral follicle count (AFC) with ovarian volume of these wom...
