Abstract
Objective: Ovarian stimulation (OS) is a critical step in assisted reproductive techniques (ART); it has been routinely adopted since it substantially increases the whole process efficiency. Our study aims to compare the efficiency of mild OS with letrozole co-treatment vs. conventional OS in expected low ovarian responders.
Methods: A single-centre, observational, comparative, non-experimental and retrospective study using our database at the Reproductive Endocrinology Department at Centro Médico Nacional 20 de Noviembre in Mexico City was performed.
Results: We compared the total rFSH dosage per oocyte, we noticed a statistically significant difference between groups, Group A 388.9 vs. Group B 667.2IU per retrieved oocyte (p<0.0002, 105 to 450 IU CI 95%), Comparing total rFSH dosage per follicle, we noticed a statistically significant difference among Group A 397.5 vs. Group B 590.2IU per follicle (p<0.014, 39.2 to 346.2 IU, CI 95%).
Conclusions: In expected poor ovarian responders, mild ovarian stimulation with letrozole co-treatment is much more efficient than conventional stimulation.
目的:卵巢刺激(OS)是辅助生殖技术(ART)的关键步骤;它已被常规采用,因为它大大提高了整个过程的效率。我们的研究旨在比较轻度OS与来曲唑联合治疗与常规OS在预期的低卵巢反应中的效率。方法:单中心、观察性、比较性、非实验性和回顾性研究使用我们在墨西哥城国立11月20日生殖内分泌科的数据库进行。结果:我们比较了每个卵母细胞的rFSH总剂量,我们注意到组间差异有统计学意义,a组388.9 vs B组667.2IU /卵母细胞。结论:在预期的卵巢不良反应中,轻度卵巢刺激与来曲唑联合治疗比常规刺激有效得多。
