Follicle-stimulating hormone or human menopausal gonadotropin for ovarian stimulation in in vitro fertilization cycles: a meta-analysis.

Abstract:

OBJECTIVE:To reanalyze the results of using FSH alone and hMG during IVF treatment, taking into account the different protocols of administration of superactive GnRH agonist analogs. DESIGN:Meta-analysis. SETTING:The London Women's Clinic. PATIENT(S):Women undergoing IVF treatment. INTERVENTION(S):A meta-analysis of published randomized controlled trials from 1985 to 1999 of the use of FSH versus hMG for ovarian stimulation during IVF treatment. The common Peto odds ratio was calculated with use of a fixed effect model. The overall log odds ratio was estimated after demonstrating the consistency or homogeneity of the study results. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE(S):Clinical pregnancy rate per cycle of IVF. RESULT(S):The results suggested that in the "long and short GnRH agonists protocol" of IVF, FSH, and hMG were equally effective in achieving ovarian stimulation, and there were no differences in the clinical pregnancy rates per cycle of IVF. However, in protocols where no pituitary desensitization was used, FSH alone was more efficacious. CONCLUSION(S):The optimum choice of gonadotropin preparation for ovarian stimulation during IVF treatment is influenced by the regimen of pituitary desensitization used. The optimum gonadotropin to be used when GnRH antagonists are used has yet to be determined.
