background: it is important to evaluate ovarian reserves prior to intracytoplasmic sperm injection (icsi) treatment. the aim of this study is to determine the accuracy of anti-mullerian hormone (amh) as a marker for ovarian reserve and to compare it with day-3 serum follicle-stimulating hormone (fsh) levels. materials and methods: in this analytic, corss-sectional study, sequential sampling was...

The aim of this investigation is to determine the correlation of color Doppler (CD) and color Doppler Energy (CDE) imaging and measurements of ovarian stromal blood flow prior to controlled ovarian hyperstimulation (COH), predictors of success of COH and numbers of oocyte retrieved, especially in group of poor responders. Fifty-two patients on IVF treatment were included in this prospective cli...

BACKGROUND During the course of assisted reproduction treatment, a number of women exhibit a "poor response" to ovulation induction, or demonstrate an elevated basal FSH level (> or =10 IU/l) at a young age. We sought to determine whether these women are at increased risk of early menopause and poor reproductive performance. METHODS A retrospective cohort study included 118 "poor responders" ...

Background: One of the most annoying problems in IVF is poor ovarian response. It is anticipated that 5-18% of all IVF cycle are affected by poor response to ovarian hyperstimulation. Poor response to goandotropin may lead to decline in the pool of embryos for transfer or cryoperservation, and decrease pregnancy rates. Different mechanisms explain poor ovarian response for example decreased num...

BACKGROUND There are still some patients who show poor response to ovarian stimulation prior to evidence of normal ovarian reserve in vitro fertilization. However, there are few studies about how to treat the unexpectedly ovarian poor responder in vitro fertilization. The main aim of this study evaluate the effect of prolonging administration follicle-stimulating hormone in woman with the unexp...

Background: Constitutional chromosome abnormalities are among the major contributors to the genetic causes of reproductive disorders. Despite all of worldwide efforts have been made so far, the prognosis for mosaic X chromosome aberration below 30% of unemployed has yet to be established. The purpose of this study was to assess the quantity and quiddity of chromosomal aberrations that may negat...

BACKGROUND High, normal and poor responders are usually defined by reference to subjectively selected estradiol E2 levels at days 4-6 and the day of hCG administration (d-hCG). The purpose of this study was to use E2 percentile curves from day 5 until d-hCG to determine high, normal and poor responders, and to predict IVF outcome. METHODS In this retrospective study, 762 patients underwent 90...
