Neutrophil migration remained stable during normal menstrual cycles. However, controlled ovarian hyperstimulation (COH) significantly reduced neutrophil migration, with no correlation to hormone levels.

Area of Science:

  • Reproductive Endocrinology
  • Immunology

Background:

  • Neutrophil migration is crucial for reproductive processes.
  • Understanding immune cell behavior during fertility treatments is important.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate neutrophil migration patterns during normal menstrual cycles.
  • To assess the impact of controlled ovarian hyperstimulation (COH) on neutrophil migration.

Main Methods:

  • Monitoring neutrophil migration throughout the menstrual cycle.
  • Evaluating neutrophil migration during COH protocols.

Main Results:

  • Neutrophil migration showed no significant changes during normal menstrual cycles.
  • Neutrophil migration was significantly decreased during COH.

  • No correlation was found between neutrophil migration and serum hormone concentrations.
  • Conclusions:

    • Normal menstrual cycles do not affect neutrophil migration.
    • Controlled ovarian hyperstimulation (COH) negatively impacts neutrophil migration.
    • Hormonal fluctuations during COH do not directly explain the observed changes in neutrophil migration.
