The effect of growth hormone in poor responders undergoing COH / 中国基层医药

ABSTRACT

Objective To observe the efficacy of growth hormone ( GH) co-treatment in poor responders undergoing IVF-ET.Methods To analyze all the ovaries low response patients treated by IVF/ICSI,80 cases were ran-domly divided into two groups40 patients in GH group were given GH along with Gn daily until the HCG administra-tion.40 patients in the control group received the same treatment protocol except the GH co -treatment.The catching spawn number and MⅡova,fertile rate,the number of perfect embryos ,pregnant rate were observed .The serum con-centrations of IGF-I,IGFBP-3 were detected by ELISA and compared between the two groups .Results The number of oocytes retrieved ,number of MII oocytes ,cleavage ,number of embryos available of GH group were increased without statistical significance(all P>0.05 ).The serum IGFBP-3 level of 2 groups had no statistical significance .The fertile rate,pregnant rate ,serum IGF-I level were significantly higher in GH group than those in the control group ( all P<0.05).Conclusion GH co-treatment in poor responders could improve the outcome of IVF-ET,which imply that GH could improve the quality of oocytes and embryos related to the elevated IGF-1 level in serum .
