Abstract
Objective:
Applicability of the GnRH-antagonist Cetrorelix within controlled ovarian hyperstimulation (COH) to avoid the premature LH-surge should be examined.
Methods:
35 patients suffering from tubal infertility were stimulated for In Vitro Fertilization (IVF) by human menopausal gonadotrophins (HMG) and concomitant administration of Cetrorelix in different dosages (3 mg, 1 mg, 0,5 mg).
Results:
No premature LH-surge could be observed.
Conclusions:
Short term administration of the GnGR-antagonists avoids the occurrence of a premature LH-surge.
