Abstract:
OBJECTIVE:To compare the low-dose recombinant FSH and hMG protocols in treatment of patients with history of severe ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS). DESIGN:A prospective study on 22 patients with history of severe OHSS. Group A (n = 14) was treated with low-dose recombinant FSH 40 cycles and group B (n = 8) was treated with low-dose hMG in 26 cycles. SETTING:The Egyptian IVF-ET Center, Cairo, Egypt. PATIENT(S):Twenty-two patients with a history of severe OHSS. INTERVENTION(S):Ovulation induction. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE(S):Estradiol, number of follicles, number of hMG ampules, pregnancy rate (PR), and the development of OHSS. RESULT(S):The cancellation rate, mean E2 level on day of hCG, mean number of days of stimulation, and the mean number of ampules per cycle were 10%, 523 +/- 166 pg/mL (conversion factor to SI unit, 3.671), 17.8 +/- 5.4, and 19 +/- 6.5 in group A and 19.2%, 554 +/- 152 pg/mL, 14.6 +/- 2.5, and 16.1 +/- 3.6 in group B, respectively. Treatment resulted in eight pregnancies (20% per cycle) and two abortions (25%) in group A. In group B, four pregnancies resulted (15.4% per cycle) and two patients aborted (50%). No cases of OHSS developed in both groups. There were no significant differences in all parameters between the two groups. CONCLUSION(S):Recombinant FSH low-dose protocol proved to be as effective as low-dose hMG in producing reasonable ovulation and PRS in polycystic ovary syndrome patients with a history of severe OHSS and the protocol was safe concerning the risk of development of OHSS.

临床试验,杂志文章abstract::Whereas the dose of hMG is significantly correlated with both BMI and BW, commencing the more obese patient on higher hMG doses is not justified in view of the cancellation of cycles from over-responsiveness in the more obese patients started on higher hMG dosage regimens.
