Medroxyprogesterone acetate is a useful alternative to a gonadotropin-releasing hormone antagonist in oocyte donation: a randomized, controlled trial.
2021
Objective To compare ovarian response and reproductive outcomes in oocyte donors undergoing pituitary suppression with medroxyprogesterone acetate (MPA) versus those undergoing conventional treatment with a gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) antagonist. Design A prospective, randomized, controlled trial of cycles was conducted from October 2017 to June 2019 to evaluate ovarian response in terms of the number of oocytes. The reproductive outcomes of the recipients were retrospectively analyzed later. Setting A university-affiliated private in vitro fertilization center. Patient(s) We randomly divided 318 donors into 2 groups in a 1:1 ratio. The oocytes obtained were assigned to 364 recipi…
Impact of luteinizing hormone administration on gonadotropin-releasing hormone antagonist cycles: an age-adjusted analysis
2011
Objective: To analyze the impact of LH administration on cycle outcome in ovarian stimulation with GnRH antagonists. Design: Randomized, open-label, controlled trial performed in two age subgroups. Recombinant (r) FSH versus rFSH + rLH administration was compared. Setting: University-affiliated private infertility clinic. Patient(s): Up to 35 years old (n = 380) and aged 36 to 39 years (n = 340), undergoing their first or second IVF cycle. Intervention(s): Recombinant LH administration since stimulation day 1. Main Outcome Measure(s): Implantation rate, ongoing pregnancy rate. Result(s): In the young population, implantation rates were similar: 27.8% versus 28.6%, odds ratio (OR) 1.03 (95% …
Early pregnancy loss in women stimulated with gonadotropin-releasing hormone antagonist protocols according to oral contraceptive pill pretreatment.
2007
Objective To evaluate and compare the risk of early pregnancy loss in patients stimulated with GnRH antagonist protocols according to oral contraceptive pill (OCP) pretreatment. Design Retrospective case–control study. Setting Instituto Valenciano de Infertilidad. University of Valencia. Spain. Patient(s) One thousand five hundred thirty-nine patients, aged Intervention(s) Reproductive outcome was compared based on the application (or not) of OCP pretreatment: 944 women were included in the OCP group and 595 in the non-OCP group. The Student's t test was used for statistics. Main Outcome Measure(s) Pregnancy, biochemical pregnancy, ectopic pregnancy, early clinical pregnancy loss, early pre…
Similar endometrial development in oocyte donors treated with either high- or standard-dose GnRH antagonist compared to treatment with a GnRH agonist…
2005
Background This descriptive study evaluates the impact on endometrial development of standard and high doses of a GnRH antagonist in stimulated cycles compared with GnRH agonist and natural cycles. Methods Thirty-one oocyte donors were treated with a combination of rFSH and 0.25 mg/day ganirelix (standard dose), 2 mg/day ganirelix (high dose) or 0.6 mg/day buserelin (long protocol). Vaginal progesterone (200 mg/day) was administered in the luteal phase. Endometrial biopsies were performed 2 and 7 days after HCG administration. Additional biopsies were carried out in a subset of 12 subjects, 2 and 7 days following the LH peak of their previous natural cycle. Biopsies were evaluated histologi…
