Gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonists (GnRH-a) are key in in vitro fertilization (IVF) superovulation. Different GnRH-a protocols (long, short, ultrashort) offer distinct benefits and drawbacks for IVF management and safety.

Area of Science:

  • Reproductive Endocrinology
  • In Vitro Fertilization (IVF)

Background:

  • Gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonists (GnRH-a) have been integral to IVF superovulation protocols since the late 1980s.
  • Various GnRH-a regimens, including long, short, and ultrashort protocols, are employed globally in fertility centers.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review the advantages and disadvantages of different GnRH-a superovulation protocols used in IVF.
  • To discuss the management and safety considerations associated with GnRH-a regimens in IVF.

Main Methods:

  • Literature review and synthesis of existing data on GnRH-a protocols in IVF.
  • Comparative analysis of long, short, and ultrashort GnRH-a regimens.

Main Results:

  • The long GnRH-a protocol is the most commonly utilized approach in IVF.

  • Each protocol (long, short, ultrashort) presents unique pros and cons impacting IVF outcomes.
  • Management and safety aspects are critical considerations for all GnRH-a regimens.

    • Conclusions:

    • GnRH-a regimens are a standard and essential component of IVF superovulation.
    • Understanding the specific advantages and disadvantages of each GnRH-a protocol is crucial for optimizing IVF treatment.
    • Careful management and attention to safety are paramount when using GnRH-a in IVF cycles.
