In IVF, LHRH agonists given by the ‘long protocol’ before gonadotrophins are commenced have consistently shown higher pregnancy rates and higher live birth rates. Although the optimal time to commence LHRH agonist is not clearly determined, commencement in the early follicular phase possibly with pre-treatment with the combined oral contraceptive pill would avoid the risk of inadvertent administration during early pregnancy. The role of LHRH agonists in ovulation induction is less clear cut, although there may be some advantages in patients with refractory PCOS.

Current views on the ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome emphasize its association with the presence of polycystic ovaries. We review here the pathophysiological background of this association and focus on the central role of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF). Overexpression of VEGF in the polycystic ovary is thought to contribute to its characteristic multifollicular response to gonadotrophic stimulation. Release of large amounts of VEGF into the circulation is thought to account for the development of the clinical syndrome of ovarian hyperstimulation. The implications of this understanding are explored and the clinical features of the condition and its management are described. Thromboembolic disease is increasingly recognized as a serious if rare complication of infertility treatment. The subject is reviewed here with special reference to two recently published and important papers. The most concerning complication of infertility treatment is multiple pregnancy. Few doctors seem to be aware of the dire statistics: every index of obstetric outcome is adversely affected. The survival, health and family circumstances of children born as the result of multifetal gestation are all impaired. Infertility patients need a clear understanding of the risks involved so that they can appreciate the need for intensive monitoring of ovarian stimulation. In our opinion a knowledge of the rate of multiple pregnancy is quite as important as knowing the clinic's ‘success’ rate.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":77031,"journal":{"name":"Bailliere's clinical obstetrics and gynaecology","volume":"12 4","pages":"Pages 565-579"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1998-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1016/S0950-3552(98)80052-7","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"21484008","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

As the aetiology of the disease is still unknown, gonadotrophin-releasing hormone (GnRH) antagonists, competitive inhibitors of GnRH for its receptor, are interesting tools in order to study and treat the role of increased LH levels and pulse frequency in this disease. Their administration provokes a rapid decrease in bioactive and immunoactive LH followed by a slower decrease in follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH). In patients with PCOD, the suppression of gonadotrophin secretion eradicates the symptoms of the disease as long as the treatment lasts. Several authors have suggested that increased plasma LH levels have deleterious effects on the fertility of women with PCOD. Indeed, fewer spontaneous pregnancies with more miscarriages are observed when plasma LH levels are high. Assisted reproduction techniques such as in vitro fertilization (IVF) have provided other clues to the role of the LH secretory pattern in women with PCOD. The number of oocytes retrieved, the fertilization rate and the cleavage rate are lower in PCOD patients undergoing IVF and this is inversely correlated with FSH:LH ratio. These abnormalities are corrected when endogenous secretion of LH is suppressed. On the other hand, implantation and pregnancy rates after IVF are similar to those observed in control women. New GnRH antagonists are devoid of side effects and suppress LH secretion within a few hours without a flare-up effect. This action lasts for 10–100 hours. When GnRH antagonists are associated with i.v. pulsatile GnRH, this combination both suppresses the effect of endogenous GnRH and because of the competition for GnRH receptors restores a normal frequency of LH secretion. We have studied two women with PCOD, administering first 10 mg s.c. every 72 hours for 7 days of the GnRH antagonist</p></div>","PeriodicalId":77031,"journal":{"name":"Bailliere's clinical obstetrics and gynaecology","volume":"12 4","pages":"Pages 607-618"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1998-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1016/S0950-3552(98)80055-2","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"21484011","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
