Background: One of the most common causes of infertility in women is ovulatory dysfunction (PCOS) and the choice of treatment is clomiphene citrate. One of the mechanism of dichotomy between the rate of ovulation and pregnancy is anti estrogenic effects of clomiphene citrate on endometrium. According to its long half life, the anti estrogenic effects probably exacerbate in consecutive cycles. W...

Basal follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) in a natural cycle, FSH on cycle days 3 and 10 in a clomiphene citrate-stimulated cycle and oestradiol and progesterone area under the curve (AUC) in the luteal phase of the clomiphene citrate-stimulated cycle were evaluated as hormonal predictors for the outcome of IVF treatment in 53 normally cycling women with tubal infertility. The pregnant women had...

AIM Ovulation dysfunction is one of the most common causes of reproductive failure in infertile couples. The prevalence of this disorder in infertile women is about 30 to 40%.

BACKGROUND Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is associated with approximately 75% of women who suffer from infertility due to anovulation. Additionally, around 20- 25% of anovulatory women with PCOS do not respond at all to clomiphene citrate and are considered to be "clomiphene- resistant". Aromatase inhibitors have been suggested as an alternative treatment to clomiphene as the discrepancy bet...
