ovarian follicle response and corpus luteum formation following induction of ovulation using gonadotropin-releasing hormone (gnrh) analogues and luteinizing hormone (lh) in bactrian camel were characterized. bactrian camels with a mature follicle (13-19.6 mm) received: 1) natural porcine lh (25 mg, iv, n = 4), 2) buserelin (20 μg, iv, n = 4) and 3) alarelin (25 μg, im, n = 4). daily ultrasonogr...

background: polycystic ovaries syndrome (pcos) is the most common disorder in infertile women with ovulation sterility. there are some instances of abnormal endocrine in the women stricken by this syndrome and so the clinical results of ovulating induction in them, because of severe response of ovary against ovulating induction, are very discussing and may lead to different results from those w...

background: intracytoplasmic sperm injection (icsi) is an advanced technique employed in assisted reproductive clinics for treatment of infertile couples. the reproductive endocrinologists try their level best to identify factors that enhance success rate after icsi. objective: to compare estradiol progesterone ratio on ovulation induction day amongst pregnancy outcome groups following icsi. ma...

background: despite extensive progress in ivf techniques, one of the most difficult problems is the variability in the response to controlled ovarian hyperstimulation (coh). recent studies show the effects of individual genetic variability on coh outcome. objective: to evaluate the correlation between lhβ g1502a polymorphisms in exon 3 of the lh gene and ovarian response to coh. materials and m...

background: different protocols are used for controlled ovarian hyper stimulation (coh), but the optimal method has not yet been determined. objective: the aim of this study was to compare the outcome of controlled ovarian stimulation (cos) using clomiphen citrate (cc) plus hmg versus cc plus rfsh in intra uterine insemination cycles (iui). materials and methods: 144 women with unexplained or m...

case presentation the studied patient was a 32-year-old g1p1 woman with abdominal pain who was diagnosed with a large ovarian cyst during ovulation induction, which could possibly raise the risk of ovarian torsion. she had a 2-year secondary infertility and had received three cycles of ovulation induction with letrozole 6 months earlier. an emergency laparoscopy showed large complex ovarian cys...

background: clomiphen citrate (cc) is the first line therapy for women with infertility and poly cystic ovary syndrome( pcos). however, 20-25% of women are resistant to cc and do not ovulate. objective: the objective of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of sequential treatment of metformin and incremental doses of letrozole in induction of ovulation in cases of cc-resistant pcos patients....

Background Infertility and diagnostic and therapeutic procedures of which during assisted reproduction technologies (ART) make discomfort and anxiety for infertile couples. Several studies have demonstrated that infertility treatment procedures, particularly during ovulation induction period, lead to high levels of distress and anxiety in infertile women. The aim of this study was to evaluate t...

background: the beneficial role of cabergoline as a prophylactic agent to prevent ovarian hyper stimulation syndrome (ohss) among high-risk patients has been demonstrated in previous studies. but data for its role as a treatment for established severe ohss is still limited. we represent the treatment results of high dose oral cabergoline in management of six patients after the syndrome is estab...
