background: based on classical two-cell, two-gonadotropin theory, in the follicle, follicle-stimulating hormone (fsh) and luteinizing hormone (lh) put on their main effects on the granulosa and theca cells. lh is essential for androgens production. androgens are used for estradiol production by granulosa cells. profound suppression of lh concentrations in some normogonadotropic patients can cau...

background: acceptance of uterus and reaction between endometrium and embryo has an important role for implantation. muc1 an integral membrane mucin is expressed on the apical surface of uterine epithelial cells and could have effects on its receptivity. objective: the aim of this study was to evaluate the changes in muc1 expression of gravid mouse endometrium with and without hyperstimulation ...

background: the preparation of endometrium for embryo reception is dependent on the ovarian hormones, which are affected by ovarian hyperstimulation procedure. objective: the aim of this study was to evaluate the changes in morphometrical indices of endometrium by the daily injection of progesterone after mouse ovarian induction. materials and methods: adult virgin female mice were selected and...

abstract the gnrh analogue (agonist and antagonist gnrh) changed ovarian stimulation. on the one hand, it improved chances of pregnancy to obtain more oocytes and better embryos. this leads to an ovarian hyper-response, which can be complicated by the ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (ohss). on the other hand, the gnrh analogue can prevent the incidence of ohss: gnrh antagonist protocols, gnrh...

pituitary suppression by depot gnrh agonist may be excessive for ovarian stimulation. this study compares the efficacy of a single half-dose depot triptorelin and reduced-dose daily buserelin in a long protocol icsi/et. methods: a total of 182 patients were randomized into two groups using sealed envelopes. pituitary desensitization was obtained in group 1 (91 patients) with half-dose (1.87 mg)...

background: poor ovarian response to controlled ovarian stimulation is one of the most important interest points in assisted reproduction. mild ovarian stimulation seems to be preferable to high dose of fsh regimens in women with a history of poor ovarian response in previous protocol. clomiphene citrate and letrozole alone or in combination with fsh have been used in mild ovarian stimulation p...

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 be...

objective(s) sildenafil citrate is a new drug and has special properties that bring about nitric oxide effects on vascular smooth muscle. the aim of this study was to assess the effects of ovarian stimulation and sildenafil citrate injection on pinopode expression in mice. materials and methods thirty adult female mice were randomly divided into three groups: control, hyperstimulated and hypers...

background: release of vascular endothelial growth factor (vegf) by ovaries in response to hcg administration is one of the main mechanisms of ovarian hyper stimulation syndrome. since dopamine/dopamine receptor2 (dp-r2) pathway activity -mediated by vegf/ vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 2 (vegfr-2) signaling-, is associated with angiogenic events, dopamine agonists were used for th...
