121 women with Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome and clomiphene citrate resistance underwent laparoscopic ovarian cautery, 63 patients were type I or typical PCOS with ovarian volume >8mL and 58 patients were type II PCOS with ovarian volume O.05). It therefore appears that the result of laparoscopic ovarian cauterization does not depend on ovary size in clomphene citrate resistant patients with...

background: it is well known that there is a close relationship between elevated androgen plasma levels and the ultrasound findings of stromal hypertrophy in polycystic ovary syndrome (pcos). the objective of this study was to investigate the effects metformin on the hyperandrogenism and ovarian volume in pcos. methods: the study is an unrandomized clinical trial with before–after design. twent...

background: nandrolone decanoate (nd) is an anabolic androgenic steroid (aas) which influences the ovarian structure and function. we assessed the effects of nd on the ovarian volume, number of primordial follicles, and level of hormones and also evaluated the modulatory effects of gonadotropins on the histopathological changes imposed by the administration of nd. methods: six groups of sprague...

Ovarian volume measurements have been recently shown to be predictive of response to ovarian stimulation. Women with small ovarian volumes, i.e. <3 cm(3), have a higher incidence of cycle cancellation, together with a lower peak oestradiol concentration, lower number of retrieved oocytes, and lower pregnancy rates, compared with women with larger ovarian volumes. We prospectively investigated w...

Objective This study was performed to compare the success level of laparoscopic ovarian drillind by means of standard and dose-adjusted (on the basis of ovarian volume) treatment methods among infertile clomiphene resistant PCO women. MaterialsAndMethods This randomized clinical trial was conducted on infertile clomiphene citrate resistant PCOS women in the Gynecology department of Imam Reza Ho...

BACKGROUND Polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) is a heterogeneous endocrine disorder affecting women of reproductive age. The syndrome is characterized by a combination of polycystic ovarian morphology, clinical features and biochemical indices. The objective of this prospective observational study was to investigate the relationship between the total ovarian volume and the ovarian stromal volum...
