ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:
To evaluate the clinical efficacy of half-dose and further reduced dose GnRH agonist long protocols for controlled ovarian hyperstimulation (COH) in in vitro fertilization and embryo transfer (IVF-ET) patients with high basal serum FSH level.METHODS:
One hundred and two IVF-ET cycles performed in 84 infertile patients with high basal serum FSH level (FSH>10.0 mIU/mL) were included in this retrospective study. Study subjects were assigned in two groups continuous half-dose GnRH agonist long protocol (Group A, n=63) vs. further reduced dose GnRH agonist long protocol (Group B, n=39) from half-dose at the start of GnRH agonist to 1/3 or 1/4 dose after pituitary suppression. Exogenous FSH or hMG was administered for COH in step-down mode, 4 or less embryos were transferred, and intramuscular progesterone or 8% progesterone gel was used for the luteal support.RESULTS:
Serum estradiol (E2) level on hCG day was significantly higher in Group B (1,318.3 +/- 1,120.4 vs. 2,054.9 +/- 1,773.5 pg/mL, p=0.015). The number of transferable embryos was also significantly higher in Group B (2.9 +/- 1.7 vs. 3.7 +/- 2.0, p=0.027). There was no statistically significant difference in the outcomes such as the dose of gonadotropins administered, the number of oocytes retrieved, and the clinical pregnancy rate.CONCLUSION:
GnRH agonist long protocol with the reduced dose from half-dose at the start to 1/3 or 1/4 of dose after pituitary suppression may be more beneficial for COH in IVF-ET patients with high basal serum FSH level. Further prospective randomized controlled study in a larger scale will be necessary to confirm this findings.
